Fanquip Negative Air Fan

The fan technology used in the Fanquip Negative Air Fan - complete with safety monitoring system - can be used for handling asbestos and other substances that are harmful when airborne.

Suitable for applications where contaminated airborne particles must be removed to create a clean/safe working environment, the fans have a dust load monitoring system and are suitable for users holding specific licences for removal of product likely to cause harmful or toxic conditions when being handled.

The negative air unit is configured with a HEPA filter, tested to AS 1324 to achieve minimum efficiency of 99.99%.

The unit is fitted with a failsafe dust-load monitoring system which notifies the operator when the filter is dirty. It does so by means of a two-stage alarm and flashing light.

The first-stage alarm is activated when the filter system is reaching a stage where its replacement is required. The stage-two alarm warns at the critical stage once the filter has dropped below its rated capacity, when the alarm sounds again and the unit will be immobilised for total workplace safety.

The negative air filter fan operates on a 240 V, 10 A and 3-pin plug electrical system.

It is claimed to be suitable for tough environments such as building and construction sites, quarries, dilapidated asbestos-roofed warehouses and sites undergoing toxic remediation.
