Return Fan Section parts diagram. Numbers match the table below; each box is one top-level part or assembly with what it contains.
#PartQtyWhat it does
1 Plenum Fan Wheel 1× A backward-curved aluminum or steel impeller, 315–1,250 mm in diameter, statically and dynamically balanced to grade G6.3.
2 Fan Motor 5 parts 1× A direct-drive induction or EC motor, 1.5–75 kW, mounted on the fan frame with the wheel fitted straight onto its shaft.
3 Fan Frame 1× A welded steel cradle that holds the motor and wheel as one removable module inside the fan section.
4 Vibration Isolator 4× A rubber-in-shear or spring mount under each corner of the fan frame that keeps fan vibration out of the casing and ductwork.
5 Variable-Frequency Drive 5 parts 1× The inverter drive that varies fan speed to track duct static-pressure setpoint, cutting fan power with the cube of speed.
