Axial Fans
Howden axial fans are found throughout the world operating in industrial processes where performance, reliability and maintainability are of paramount importance. Ranging in diameter from 200mm to over 9.3m, and with a variety of impeller designs, control systems and layout options, they form a comprehensive series of axial fans to satisfy virtually all industrial applications.
The majority of the fans we supply can be grouped into four broad categories; variable pitch, non variable pitch, OEM
and mixed flow. All are supplied to the same exacting standards.
We have axial fans operating in over 90 countries; from the world’s largest power stations to the latest high-speed locomotives, from defence to environmental protection. The experience we gain from this wide range of applications is available to our engineers anywhere in the world.
