Electra-Kool™ industrial cooling fans are frequently used for electric panel cooling, ventilating, pressurizing, and dust-proofing. They are a simple, bolt-on solution for ventilating electric panels in dusty environments… like foundries! Wayne Products is proud to help foundries all over the country who rely on us to prevent expensive factory down time caused by dirty or overheated electrical components.

CASE STUDY: PANEL COOLING FOR SAND RECLAMATION OVEN

A major Midwestern foundry was one of Wayne Products’ first customers back in the early 1980s and has been a loyal customer ever since, using dozens of Electra-Kool centrifugal blowers to cool and pressurize cabinets all over their plant that house critical electric components.

The Model 500 shown here is bolted to the electric cabinet for their sand reclamation ovens, which heat used green sand, a critical component in any metal casting process, up to 1,400 degrees Fahrenheit. This burns off impurities in the sand and allows them to recycle thousands of tons of it per year, saving them millions of dollars annually. This large operation would not be possible without reliable electrical controls; Electra-Kool™ blowers are there to keep them clean and cool, thereby keeping the reclamation process functional.

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. This Model 500 appears to be at least ten years old, further evidence of the quality, reliability, and longevity of our products. Much less expensive than an enclosure air conditioner and just a blip on an electric bill, Electra-Kool™ centrifugal blowers are indispensable to our customers like the foundry who has saved time and money by using them for the past 25 years.
