At Canarm’s Corporate Office(and manufacturing facility), an HVLS-24 was installed above our assembly lines. A series of tests were
conducted to calculate the total airflow(CFM) and to determine fan layout. Below are the results.
Installation Details are as follows:
Ceiling Height is 20 feet
HVLS is 2 feet below ceiling
A VFD is used to control the RPM of the HVLS, during testing it was set to full speed
