A range of centrifugal fans, designed with fume extraction in mind, are single inlet types, with forward sloping blades and offer flow rates of up to 3185m3/hr (1875ft3/min).
For customers who do not require the complete protection of the double bar gate, a more economical single bar gate can be ordered.
Its proven design has been successfully used by many companies over the past 25 years.
The safety gate has a horizontal swing, not a vertical drop.
The design relies solely on gravity.
The safety gate does not depend on springs, cams, bearings or the operator.
When opened, the hinge design causes the blade to travel slightly upward.
When the opening force is released, the blade is pulled downward by gravity and swings back to the closed position.
The polyurethane safety gate cannot corrode or degrade.
Nothing will wear out, nor will need to be replaced, lubricated or painted.
