EFFICIENT FANS

Horton says its new WindMaster Revolution is a high-efficiency, hybrid-flow fan that meets the airflow demand of EPA10 and Tier 4 engines. Calling it “a radical change from current technologies," it’s said to combine the best features of axial-, mixed- and radial-flow fan technology.

The WindMaster Revolution is optimized to move air more efficiently around the engine and through the under-hood compartment, Horton says. The result is claimed to be energy savings and low operating noise.

WindMaster Revolution fans are designed for compact engine compartments and are available in two sizes. The 550mm fans are engineered for off-highway equipment and vehicles and medium-duty trucks. The 750mm fans are engineered for heavy-duty trucks and some off-highway equipment and vehicles.
 
WindMaster Revolution fans have 20% greater airflow than axial-flow fans, significantly lower operating noise, greater efficiency and a similar-size inlet, Horton says. It also claims that, compared to radial-flow fans, these new fans have 40% smaller depth and a larger inlet diameter, require a significantly smaller space, and don’t need space for a complex fan housing. Compared to mixed-flow fans, the company says, they offer 15% greater airflow, 30% smaller depth, greater efficiency, and a larger hub section that provides for more mounting options.
