For Faster more Efficient Project Delivery
July 13, 2014  |  share:

Fantech has just introduced a new and unique prefabrication service to help save customer’s time and money when installing fans on site.

On-site installation of individual components requires storage and working space that often causes site congestion, OH&S issues and time wastage from needing to collect and assemble components. Providing a prefabricated modular assembly that is simply lifted and mounted into position gives customers the opportunity to improve site productivity and control labour costs. Also, project delays while waiting for single components to be delivered will no longer be an issue.

The Fantech prefabricated assemblies include adjustable pitch axial inline fans ranging from 560mm to 2 metres diameter and are fitted to transition ductwork, anti-vibration mounts and flexible connections at both the inlet and outlet of the fan.

There is limited variation to the standard width and heights of transition ductwork to ensure system performance is optimised, however, three non-standard options are also available for each fan diameter. The square to round transitions are offered in plain and a range of internally lined configurations.

Customers also have the option to either free-issue or purchase a Variable Speed Drive from Fantech which will be suitably mounted and pre-wired to meet EMC electrical regulations.

The modular assemblies have been structurally certified by an independent engineer to meet the following Australian Standards:AS1418.1 Cranes, Hoist and Winches - General and AS3990-1993 Mechanical Equipment Steel work. This therefore ensures compliance with structural regulations and enables better management of OH&S onsite.

Cost savings can be made in the project design stages due to the modular, certified designs needing no client engineering. Furthermore, three-dimensional Revit models are available for all modular assembly sizes, significantly reducing project drafting costs.

Customers can be assured they are getting a high quality, structurally certified product that has been assembled for optimal performance. Fantech has a proven project delivery capability - and the prefabricated assembly products offer efficiencies and further risk minimisation ensuring projects are delivered on time and on budget.

The wide range of prefabricated adjustable pitch axial inline products is now available through the Fantech network.
