The New Generation of Kitchen Canopy Fan from Fläkt Woods
Fläkt Woods has launched the new Powerbox - Greasefighter, a new generation of kitchen canopy fan, featuring an externally located motor, enabling high performance canopy extraction, at high temperatures.
Greasefighter has been purpose-designed for commercial kitchen exhaust systems, to remove heat produced by cooking appliances, as well as kitchen odours, smoke and products of combustion, in order to maintain a comfortable working environment for kitchen staff.
Featuring motor-out-of-airstream, the new Greasefighter can operate within much higher ambient temperatures, of up to 80˚C.
Says Faye Young, External Sales Engineer at Fläkt Woods “As a result of tighter legislation, the system resistance in traditional canopy solutions is dramatically increasing. Filtration of contaminated air and odours means that fans suitable for use with carbon filters are required. Our new Powerbox - Greasefighter can cope with the demand for high pressure systems and the customer can also benefit from multiple outlet positions, at 90º to the inlet potentially saving up to 2-3 metres of ducting per installation where space is limited.”
Its compact design combined with its housing construction of double skinned pre-fabricated mild sheet steel makes the product suitable for either internal or external mounting. The Powerbox - Greasefighter is also acoustically lined as standard and is one of the quietest motor out of airstream canopy fan solutions available.
“Today, kitchen extraction systems must now meet tough regulations relating to extract rates, ventilation, temperature control and duct-work within the kitchen,” concludes Faye Young. “It must also adhere to noise control requirements as well as odour control restrictions, that is why the only total solution to canopy extraction has to be the Greasefighter”.
