Brands
Howden is a global brand that supplies equipment for handling or compressing a variety of media, from clean air to aggressive hot gases.
Main products: centrifugal and axial smoke exhausters, fans, turbine-driven compressors, and blowers.
Use: fume extraction, smoke removal, air supply
and compression.
Causes of failure: abrasive and corrosive wear of impellers and volutes, destruction of running gear or bearings
When replacing equipment, it is important for the customer to:
— keep the old foundation and mounting dimensions;
— ensure the required flow rate and pressure;
— ensure low vibration and noise levels.
Venti Oelde is a German company specializing in production of centrifugal smoke exhausters and industrial fans. This equipment is widely used in metallurgical and cement industries, where the transported media is highly abrasive.
Main products: centrifugal smoke exhausters, blowers, and exhausters.
Use: supplying air to kiln lines, preventing adhesion while moving dust and air masses, transporting hazardous gases.
Causes of failure: abrasive wear of impellers, excessive adhesion of transported medium, wear of running gear components and guide vane blades.
When replacing equipment, it is important for the customer to:
— keep the old foundation and mounting dimensions;
— ensure the required flow rate and pressure;
— ensure low vibration and noise levels.

How we effect the replacement
We have developed a series of double-suction and single-suction centrifugal machines to replace the smoke exhausters and blowers. Our products are highly resistant to abrasive wear and adhesion of transported medium
- The customer provides the documentation he has available
- We review it and perform a preliminary matching
- We keep the existing foundations and flues
- It is possible to manufacture the replacements without causing any equipment downtime
- We take final measurements before proceeding to the design phase
