The new fans are the “first and only to tackle combustible dust in CIID1 Environments” the company says.
“Industries grappling with the ever-present danger of combustible dust now have a powerful ally,” SonicAire says in introducing the latest models to its Extreme Series of fans. These new fans mark a significant leap in safeguarding environments where combustible dust poses a constant threat, the company says.
It designed these fans for Class II Division 1 (CIID1), Groups F & G environments, where fugitive dust buildup is hard to manage, allowing them to provide protection against dust accumulation.
The new models – XZ210 and XZ215 – have multiple features that ensure efficient, proactive dust control, the company said. The XZ210 provides the maximum vertical range of motion, catering to facilities with plenty of overhead clearance, while the more compact XZ215 offers a versatile solution for shorter spaces.
Both models boast dust-ignition-proof designs and can rotate 360 degrees while oscillating vertically, offering comprehensive coverage. By keeping the air in motion, SonicAire’s CIID1 fans prevent dust from accumulating on elevated surfaces, significantly reducing the risk of explosive dust-related incidents.
SonicAire said Underwriters Laboratories (UL) has certified these two models, the only products to receive certification for CIID1.
