Using the most efficient equipment for the job, is a concern of everyone in business today. But particularly in grain aeration, the equipment must accurately match the job at hand. Haphazard fan usage creates energy waste and grain stress. Farm Fans manufactures a complete line of aeration and grain conditioning systems to help maintain grain quality. Choose from a variety of high efficiency vane axial, centrifugal and inline centrifugal fans and heaters all with features designed to reduce cost and boost performance. Farm Fans engineers are committed to product performance. Every detail is considered important. Farm Fans dealers operate with the same attitude. Our main goal is to develop the best aeration solution for you.

Centrifugal Fans
Farm Fans offers a choice of two centrifugal fans each designed for unique applications. The 1750 RPM fan is available for medium static pressures requiring high airflow, and the rugged 3450 RPM fan assures powerful high static pressure grain aeration. The Inline Centrifugal Fan is suited to high static pressure applications beyond the performance range of a vane axial fan. The motor is enclosed in the fan housing and each motor is matched to the wheel for maximum airflow per horsepower. Heavy gauge, galvanized steel housing, curved inlet venturi, bottom horizontal discharge and integral motor mount are important features of Farm Fans Centrifugal Fans. All fans are statically and dynamically balanced and factory tested for smoothness and motor performance.

Vane Axial Fans
For applications requiring high airflow at low static pressures, Farm Fans offers vane-axial fans in 12" dia. (1 HP) through 28" dia. (15 HP). Vane Axial Fans continue to be the choice for many aeration jobs on the farm. Close fan blade tip clearance and stator vanes provide maximum airflow and reduced turbulence ensuring smooth consistent airflow. All 24" and larger vane axial fans include an inlet venturi which funnels air more efficiently into the fan. Whether you're natural air drying or heat drying grain, all Farm Fans fans give you the option of adding a heater if the need arises. Farm Fans fans and heaters are perfectly designed to fit together forming a well engineered system. |

U-Series Fan-Heater Units
The fan and heater is the most important part of any drying system. That's why it's imperative that you are aware of the many superior features of the five models of U-Series fan-heater units from Farm Fans...
-
Performance that delivers 11,000 to 26,000 CFM at 1" Static Pressure.
- A choice of units ranging from 2,000,000 to 4,000,000 BTU per hour.
- High efficiency vane axial fan, with guide vanes and inlet venturi for more air with less horsepower.
- One-piece cast aluminum propeller with airfoil design blades, dynamically balanced, mounted by taper lock bushing.
- Star Fire burner provides maximum fuel efficiency.
- Heavy gauge steel housing to insure minimum blade tip clearance for high efficiency operation.
- Magnetic motor control for maximum motor protection and motor overload protected...running load and locked rotor.
- Fail-safe ignition for full electric ignition heater control circuit.
- Safety control circuit with purge cycle, automatic high-limit projection and burner shutdown on flame failure.
- Available in single phase or three phase.
- All units available for liquid propane (with vaporizer) (LP), propane vapor (PV) or natural gas (N).
(NOTE: Hi-Lo Fire burner control available on LP units; cycles from high to low fire by thermostat control.)
Applications
The U-Series Fans offer a full range or air flow rates and heater capacities for all types of bin drying systems including combination drying. In addition, U-Series Fans complement the new high-speed in-bin systems by providing supplemental heat and air to completely dry the grain.
Construction
Unitized construction means that all elements are contained in one housing, plus weather-tight cabinet construction.
Reliability
U-Series Fans from Farm Fans have withstood the test of time, boasting over 25 years of proven performance and reliability.
Starfire Burner
The unique Starfire Burner features perfectly balanced steel vanes welded to a cast-iron burner for evenly-spread flames and maximum fuel efficiency. It features a heavy cast venturi and burner cup which combine with diverging vanes for uniform heating of the drying air to permit the rapid removal of excess grain moisture.
