The 4-2×72 double inlet centrifugal fan is built for large-volume industrial ventilation and centralized air handling systems. Air enters from both sides of the impeller, helping the fan handle high airflow with a compact double-suction arrangement.
This page focuses on double-inlet structure, Type E drive, air intake arrangement, outlet direction, medium limits and the project data required before model selection.
Double-Suction Fan for Centralized Air Handling
The 4-2×72 series should not be treated as a small general exhaust fan. Its double-inlet layout allows air to enter both sides of the impeller, so it is more suitable for projects where a large air volume needs to be handled through a centralized ventilation or air handling system.
Typical use cases include factory ventilation stations, workshop air exchange, large equipment air supply, process cooling air and centralized ducted ventilation. The final model should be checked according to airflow, pressure, speed, motor power, duct resistance and installation direction.
The standard conveyed medium is air or other non-flammable, non-toxic and non-corrosive gas without sticky substances. Dust and hard particles should not exceed 150 mg/m³, and the gas temperature should not exceed 80°C.
How the Double-Inlet Layout Works
Air Enters
One side of the impeller receives inlet airflow.
Double Intake
Air enters from both sides for large-volume operation.
Air Enters
The opposite inlet must also remain unobstructed.
High Airflow Discharge
The casing guides airflow toward the duct system.
Basic Configuration for 4-2×72 Selection
These values define the basic configuration and installation conditions that should be confirmed before final model selection.
Double-Inlet Fans Need More Space Planning
Both Inlet Sides
Enough space should be reserved around both inlet sides to avoid airflow blockage.
Type E Transmission
Shaft, bearing housing, coupling and motor position should be reviewed together.
Duct Direction
Outlet angle should match the main duct route and reduce unnecessary resistance.
Maintenance Access
Bearing inspection, motor access and guard removal space should be confirmed before production.
Large Airflow Performance Groups
The 4-2×72 series covers multiple large airflow groups. The following information is a simplified reference for early communication. Detailed performance should be checked against the required airflow, total pressure, speed and motor power.
Where 4-2×72 Double-Inlet Fans Are Used
Centralized Ventilation Rooms
Used where one fan station supports a larger air handling area.
Large Factory Air Exchange
Supports large-volume air exchange for industrial workshops and production halls.
Equipment Air Supply
Provides high air volume for process equipment and supporting air systems.
Process Cooling Air
Used when large airflow is required for cooling or air movement.
Ducted Air Handling Systems
Connected to large ducts where resistance and outlet angle must be reviewed.
Old Large Fan Replacement
Replacement based on old nameplate, shaft direction, outlet angle and installation space.
FAQ About 4-2×72 Double Inlet Centrifugal Fan
What is the 4-2×72 double inlet centrifugal fan used for?
It is mainly used for large-volume industrial ventilation, centralized air handling, factory air exchange, equipment air supply and process cooling air systems.
