Project Background
A renowned cooling tower manufacturer based in the UK approached Belmont Fan seeking a next-generation axial fan solution for their new line of commercial and industrial cooling systems. The project demanded a low-noise, energy-efficient, smart-controlled EC fan, capable of delivering high performance in a space-constrained, outdoor-facing environment.
Industry: HVAC / Cooling Technology
Region: United Kingdom
Application: Commercial Cooling Tower Systems
Customer Challenges
● High Energy Consumption: Their previous AC fans exhibited poor motor efficiency, increasing total system energy costs.
● Noise Compliance Issues: Located near urban or mixed-use zones, projects required strict compliance with UK low-noise building standards.
● Compact Integration Requirement: Internal space in the tower casing was limited, requiring a fan with integrated airflow accessories.
● Tight Project Timeline: The client needed the first 50 units delivered within 30 working days to meet a Q2 launch commitment.
Belmont’s Solution
Selected Product:
Belmont BEF(K)8D910-PFE5SL1-RF EC Axial Fan For Cooling Tower
Why This Model?
● High Efficiency (Up to 59%)
Aerodynamically optimized blade design via CFD simulation, combined with a built-in diffuser and guide vane system to reduce turbulence and increase static pressure.
● Integrated System Design
Fully assembled with safety grille, square mounting plate, and airflow shroud, reducing installation time by over 25% and eliminating accessory sourcing.
● Low Noise Operation
Thanks to precision dynamic balancing and airfoil-shaped impellers, sound pressure levels were reduced by over 6 dB(A) at full load—passing urban noise restrictions.
● Smart EC Motor
Equipped with 0–10V and PWM signal input, MODBUS-RTU communication for remote fan speed and fault monitoring.
● Corrosion Resistance for Outdoor Use
Surface coated and sealed to meet IP54/IP55 protection grade, suitable for humid and industrial environments.
Customization Highlights:
Modified flange hole positions for direct mounting to client’s tower casing
Supplied with English-standard cable glands and connectors
Customized performance curves and acoustic data provided to support CE documentation
Implementation Process
01. Initial Consultation: 3-way technical workshop to understand installation dimensions, airflow requirements, and noise limits.
02. Sample Testing: Functional samples delivered in 30 working days for wind tunnel + sound lab testing.
03. Batch Production: Completed and shipped first batch of 50 fans in under 30 days, fully labeled and certified.
04. Ongoing Support: Provided installation manuals, wiring diagrams, and remote commissioning guidance.
Project Results & Benefits
★ Energy consumption reduced by ~20% across the system
