Axijet^® High Plume Dilution Fan

Axijet Overview

The Axijet^® High Plume Dilution Fan is used to extract laboratory, process, or fume hood effluent air and dilute the effluent with outside ambient air. Because of the nozzle design, the diluted effluent is displaced high into the atmosphere at a constant high discharge velocity. As a result, the Axijet has greater exhaust dilution, higher discharge velocity, greater exhaust mass, and a greater plume height than conventional blowers and fans. The Axijet is AMCA certified for both Air & Sound.

 Axijet Design Features

•  Axijet Sizes and PerformancesBackward inclined, airfoil non-overloading wheel.
• High efficiency.
• Low radiated sound levels.
• Greater airflow and high pressure capabilities, with stable operation throughout operating curve.
• Motor and drive components do not require access to the contaminated airstream. 

• Available in sizes from 1225 to 7300 (12” to 73”), with capacities from 1,200 to 95,000 CFM and up to 10” S.P.

 Choices of Materials of Construction

• 100% FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic).
• Corrosion resistant, electrostatically applied, baked epoxy powder coated steel.
• 304 stainless steel & 316 stainless steel.

 Axijet Arrangements

• Belt drive arrangement 1, 9 or 10.
• Direct drive arrangement *4 or direct coupled arrangement 8.
  • *Direct drive arrangement 4 fans have the added option of 'EZ-4^®;' or 'Swingout' styles, without removal of the entire fan from the exhaust system.

 Axijet System Configurations 

Available as single, multiple or opposed systems with inlet mixing plenums for manifolded setup, fan isolation dampers and bypass dampers.

 Additional Applications

As well as for general laboratory exhaust, the Axijet can also be used for the following applications:

• Heat Recovery Units: M.K. Plastics Axijet Heat (Energy) Recovery systems for energy transfer between exhaust and supply air streams to reduce laboratory operating costs, and to prevent cross contamination between exhaust & supply.

• High Temperature Diesel Exhaust: Axijet's are the perfect choice for diesel generator exhaust for hospitals and healthcare facilities. High temperature steel Axijets can safely reduce the diesel exhaust temperature and disperse it high enough away from the building, preventing possible re-entrainment into air intakes.

• Kitchen Exhaust: Modified Axijet version for exhausting grease-laden air from kitchen, cooking and dishwasher hoods. Built in compliance with UL 762 standards.

Axijet-V High Plume Dilution Fan

The Axijet-V is a vertical, inline High Plume Dilution Fan that combines the benefits of axial flow and centrifugal fans, with a high plume dilution stack and windband. The Axijet-V has the advantage of a compact design and straight-through airflow where roof space is limited.

• Available in sizes from 1225 to 5425 (12” to 54”), capacities from 1,200 to 75,000 CFM and up to 8” S.P. in belt drive arrangements #9.
• Choice of materials of construction offered are chemical resistant epoxy coated steel, or stainless steel.
• The Axijet-V can be applied in single, double, triple or quad plenum assemblies.

KVC High Plume Fan

Similar in design to the Axijet-V, the KVC High Plume Laboratory Exhaust Fan is a more cost-effective solution for lab exhaust applications. The KLV is a straight-line, vertical centrifugal flow fan that incorporates a tapered discharge velocity nozzle that removes exhaust fumes high enough away from the building roof.

• Available in sizes from 1225 to 5425 (12” to 54”), capacities from 1,200 to 75,000 CFM and up to 8” S.P. in belt drive arrangements #9.
• Choice of materials of construction offered are chemical resistant epoxy coated steel, or stainless steel.

• The KVC can be applied in single, double, triple or quad plenum assemblies, or single curb mounted.
