A centrifugal box fan 30 inch suits ducted ventilation in offices, restaurants and medium kitchens.
The size refers to the fan or box size. Confirm airflow, pressure and power supply for your duct system.
What is a centrifugal box fan 30 inch?
A centrifugal box fan is a centrifugal fan and motor inside a rectangular, often acoustically lined, box. Ducts connect to the inlet and outlet, so the fan can sit in a ceiling void, plant room or roof.
The box reduces noise and protects the fan. Therefore, box fans are popular for kitchens, offices and commercial buildings where quiet ducted ventilation matters.
