AirStorm 54" X-Brace Fan Without Cone

"Farm Smart" Design Improves Fan Lifespan & Performance, Reduces Maintenance Costs

The new 54" AirStorm X-Brace fan was designed putting an emphasis on using corrosion resistant materials to reduce maintenance costs and downtime, while also delivering improved CFM performance under standard operating static pressures in modern hog and poultry barns.
The 54" X-Brace model fan is a through-wall mount design with a gel coated fiberglass housing, optional poly discharge cone* and an improved plastic vane shutter.

Rigid X-Brace Support The innovative new X-Brace support is constructed of aluminum tubing with blue epoxy coating and a triangle edge profile to reduce wind turbulence. The X-Brace design moves the fan brace anchor points to the corners of the fiberglass housing, providing maximum rigidity, and features rubber frame mounts to cushion the fiberglass fan housing from vibrations. The stainless steel motor and shaft bearing mount is secured to the X-brace with stainless steel hardware and provides a stable corrosion resistant platform for the 1.5 HP GrowerSELECT fan motor.

Improved Shaft Bearing Life A new, solid base pillow block shaft bearing housing provides a more stable mount and significantly reduces vibration. The new bearing also features a double-lip FloBack seal to reduce the possibility of being pushed out by over-lubricating, reduce outside contamination and increase lubrication by directing grease back toward the balls and raceways during operation, extending bearing life.

Flat Performance Curve The X-Brace fans feature a proprietary stainless steel prop configured for peak air delivery at typical operating static pressures. The fan prop delivers the most efficient CFM ratings between 0.05" and 0.15" W.C. static pressures.
Efficient Drive System The 54" X-Brace fan is powered by a high service factor GrowerSELECT 1.5 HP motor. A self-adjusting tensioner automatically keeps the 1/2" link belt at the proper tightness for maximum efficiency.
Low Maintenance Shutter Fabricated with a heavy PVC frame, reinforced corners and a generous 1" flange. The PVC vanes feature a true airfoil pattern and spring steel rods extending the entire length of the shutter with unique lockdown ends. *Poly fan cone in image is optional, purchased separately
