Explosion-Proof & Hazardous Environment Fans
Purpose: Safely move air in potentially explosive or volatile environments.
Applications: Chemical plants, grain handling, hazardous material storage.
Includes: Spark-Resistant Fans, Explosion-Proof Blowers, Hazardous Location Fans.
For facilities handling flammable gases, dust, or vapors, safety isn’t optional — and fan systems need to be configured with that in mind. It’s important to understand that explosion protection starts with the motor, not the fan housing.
We pair spark-resistant fan construction (built to AMCA Type A, B, or C standards) with motors that are certified for hazardous locations. These motors carry UL, CSA, or ATEX ratings, depending on the application, and are built to prevent ignition from electrical arcs or overheating. You’ll find these systems in chemical plants, grain storage, paint booths, battery charging rooms, and other volatile environments.
