ELECTRA-KOOL™ CENTRIFUGAL BLOWERS FOR COMMERCIAL BAKERIES
Electra-Kool™ filtered blowers are the perfect solution for keeping wheat or flour out of the electric cabinets. It is not a surprise that many Electra-Kool filtered blowers wind up in commercial bakeries. Many of our customers are large-scale bakers of cookies, cakes, buns, sliced breads, rolls, crackers, and other delicious goods. Electra-Kool centrifugal fans cool, ventilate, pressurize, and dust-proof electric panels in commercial bakeries nation wide. Our blowers are simple, bolt-on solutions that install quickly and save our customers thousands of dollars in operating costs each year. Wayne Products is proud to serve all of our commercial baking customers who rely on us to prevent expensive factory down time caused by dirty or overheated electrical components.
CASE STUDY: BAKING BREAD
A wholesale baker in the midwest had VFDs and other critical electrical components that were failing due to overheated electric cabinets. They found our website and asked us about Electra-Kool centrifugal fans as an alternative to an electric cabinet air conditioner. They selected a Model 60 and after a few weeks were kind enough to write the following:
“We have flour dust in the air that gets into everything. In the past, we have experienced VFD drive failures inside electrical panels because the fans on the drives would clog with dust, stop working, and ultimately over heat. With the Electra-Kool filtered fan, we have eliminated this issue simply by filtering air prior to entering the electrical panel. The Electra-Kool fans produce positive air pressure inside the cabinet that does not allow dust to enter the cabinet other than through the filter. We successfully cool the cabinets while removing particles in one step. The installation was very easy, completed in less than an hour, mounting via a gasketed three bolt flange. The Model 60 is quiet and efficient keeps our electronic components reliable.”
The Model 60 may be small, but its size does not reduce its effectiveness. The small filtered blower is bolted to the side of their electric cabinet and quietly pushes 60 CFM of air, cleaned with our prefilter and pleated paper filter (rated 99.9% efficiency at 0.5 microns), around critical electric components to cool them and prevent them from failing.
We come to work every day to help customers like this and pride ourselves on making products that are long lasting, affordable solutions for our customers. The Model 60 runs on just 0.5 amps and its filter can be cleaned or swapped out easily with a simple wing nut. Electra-Kool™ centrifugal blowers are indispensable to our thousands of customers who have saved time and money using them for the past 25 years.
