PROTERRA® Systems 52-Inch Fiberglass Fan with BI-FLOW® Shutter
 |
PROTERRA Systems’ 52-inch fans with BI-FLOW Shutters have the ability to move large amounts of air. This allows poultry producers to use fewer fans in a house while generating a certain air speed or volume of air moved per bird. The 52-inch fan offers high cubic feet per minute (CFM) air movement with impressive CFM/watt energy efficiency ratings, even with higher building static pressures.
The popular BI-FLOW Shutters deliver up to 10% more air with 75% less opportunity for air to leak through compared to a traditional louver shutter. BI-FLOW Doors do not suffer the 12-15% loss of efficiency and air speed typical of dirty louver-style shutters, so air speed is maintained over time.
This larger fan and shutter combination is factory-assembled using corrosion-resistant components, including the fan’s fiberglass housing, stainless steel structural components and cast aluminum blade. The BI-FLOW shutter consists of only two moving parts for greater reliability. The unique shutter doors are pushed open as air is exhausted when the fan operates. Springs draw the doors closed when the fan is not in operation.
