AxiACi from ebm-papst: Compact fans for efficiency and durability in any condition

In the world of commercial refrigeration, industry, and telecommunications, ventilation systems are crucial for ensuring business continuity, safety, and sustainability. Today, companies face increasingly complex challenges : reducing energy consumption amid rising costs, adopting solutions compatible with natural refrigerants, and ensuring reliability even in challenging environmental conditions.

To meet these needs, ebm-papst has developed the new AxiACi series, compact fans that combine energy efficiency, long life and resistance to external factors . Thanks to GreenTech EC technology, an advanced aerodynamic design and specific certifications, AxiACi is proposed as a modern and high-performance alternative to traditional AC fans, ensuring a rapid economic return and a significant reduction in environmental impact. A solution designed for those seeking reliability and consistent performance in strategic and high-workload applications.

Energy efficiency up to 83%, quiet operation and long lifespan (65,000 h)

The main advantage offered by the AxiACi range is its high energy efficiency . Compared to conventional AC fans, these models reduce consumption by up to 83% while maintaining the same air flow rate, thus ensuring a significant reduction in operating costs. Thanks to these savings, the return on investment can be achieved in less than a year, a particularly significant factor in a period characterized by rising energy costs.

The technological heart of the series is the GreenTech EC motor, designed for smooth and quiet operation. The aerodynamic design of the blades, combined with the balanced impeller and optimized guides, reduces turbulence and vibration, resulting in a noise reduction of up to 3 dB(A) compared to competing models. These advantages are complemented by an operating life of up to 65,000 hours, double that of standard AC motors, resulting in reduced maintenance and maximum operational continuity in industrial and commercial facilities.

Extreme operation from –40°C to +75°C: IP65 protection, ATEX and compatibility with natural refrigerants

AxiACi fans were developed to withstand harsh operating conditions and offer maximum versatility. They can operate easily at temperatures ranging from –40°C to +75°C, maintaining reliable performance even during cold starts. IP65 protection and certified resistance to dust, water, and salt spray make them the ideal choice for exposed environments and systems subject to external stresses. Furthermore, ATEX certification (DIN EN 60079-7, Group IIA, T4) allows them to be used in potentially explosive atmospheres, ensuring maximum safety.

Of particular note is their compatibility with low-impact natural refrigerants, including ammonia, propane, ethanol, cyclohexane, and butane, enabling them to meet the sustainability goals and ecological transition of the HVAC/R industry. The wide voltage range of 90 to 264 VAC also ensures international flexibility, simplifying integration in markets with diverse electrical infrastructures. Thanks to these features, AxiACi units are suitable for a wide range of applications, from commercial refrigeration to industrial electrical panels and telecommunications, becoming a reliable ally for designers and operators seeking advanced, compact solutions that are ready for the challenges of the future.
