Product Overview

This is a 12 foot diameter, 6 blade HVLS ceiling fan designed for large, open commercial and industrial spaces. The fan delivers up to 36,500 CFM and covers up to 8,500 square feet.

It operates at a maximum speed of 44 RPM and produces less than 57 dBA at full speed. The fan uses a 0.5 HP gear drive motor and weighs 112 lbs.

The fan is supplied with a NEMA 1 wall-mounted VFD controller. The controller includes a safety disconnect, on/off toggle, and speed regulator.

Blade construction is aluminum, finished in black. Downrod extensions are available in 1, 2, 3, and 6 foot lengths to accommodate different ceiling heights and mounting requirements.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fan is suitable for large, open areas where consistent air movement is needed. Typical applications include warehouses, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, hangars, and gyms.

It is designed for installation on I-beams, Z-purlins, or open joist structures. Minimum mounting height is 10 feet, with at least 5 feet of ceiling clearance and 2 feet of horizontal clearance required.

The fan is appropriate for spaces where low noise operation is important, as it operates below 57 dBA.

It is intended for environments where a high volume of air movement is needed to improve comfort and air circulation across large floor areas.

Performance and Functional Considerations

The fan supports variable speed operation through the wall-mounted VFD controller. This allows adjustment of airflow to match seasonal or operational needs.

It is compatible with single phase and three phase power at 110-120V, 208-240V, and 460-480V. Maximum current draw ranges from 9.6A at 110-120V single phase to 1.8A at 460-480V three phase.

With a coverage area of up to 8,500 square feet and a maximum output of 36,500 CFM, the fan is sized for large, open-plan environments.

Sound output remains below 57 dBA, supporting use in occupied spaces where noise is a concern.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The fan can be mounted to I-beams, Z-purlins, or open joists. Downrod extensions in multiple lengths allow for installation flexibility based on ceiling height and clearance requirements.

Minimum mounting height is 10 feet. At least 5 feet of ceiling clearance and 2 feet of horizontal clearance must be maintained for safe operation.

Safety features include a safety cable, hub clips, hub retainer, dual-method fastening of all joined components, and integrated sprinkler shut-off.

The wall-mounted VFD controller provides direct access for speed adjustment and includes a safety disconnect and on/off toggle for operational control and maintenance lockout.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Once installed, the fan is typically set to a speed that matches the comfort or air movement needs of the space. The wall-mounted VFD controller allows you to adjust speed as needed for seasonal changes or occupancy levels.

Operators use the on/off toggle and speed regulator on the controller for day-to-day adjustments. The safety disconnect is used during maintenance or when the fan needs to be isolated from power.

In facilities with varying ceiling heights or obstructions, the available downrod extensions allow the fan to be positioned at the correct height for optimal airflow and clearance.

Routine checks of the safety cable, hub clips, and fastening points are recommended as part of ongoing maintenance to ensure continued safe operation.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
