Energy-efficient controllable exhaust-unit for agricultural use

Development of optimised prototype axial ventilator

Funded project: ELFORSK

The project will develop an optimised prototype axial ventilator, which together with an efficient electric motor may boost efficiency in a stable ventilator unit from 45 to 60%. The prototype will be equipped with new controls and will first be tested in the lab and then for six months in a stable together with a reference ventilator unit.
