Spark-Resistant Construction Options
The following AMCA Standards apply to fan
applications that may involve the handling of
potentially explosive or flammable particles,
fumes or vapors.
•
applications that may involve the handling of
potentially explosive or flammable particles,
fumes or vapors.
•
AMCA Type A
- All parts in contact with the
airstream are constructed of nonferrous material
(aluminum). Model SWB does not meet AMCA
Type A spark resistant construction because the
fan shaft is steel.

AMCA Type B
- The fan wheel is constructed
of nonferrous material (aluminum). A nonferrous
(aluminum) rub ring surrounds the fan shaft where
(aluminum) rub ring surrounds the fan shaft where
it passes through the fan housing. Available on all
SWB sizes with an aluminum wheel and rub ring.
•
AMCA Type C
- The inlet cone is constructed
of nonferrous material (aluminum). A nonferrous
(aluminum) rub ring surrounds the fan shaft where it
passes through the fan housing.

The constructions listed minimize the potential of
ferrous components making contact with each other
that may produce sparks. However, they do not
guarantee against the potential of producing sparks.
The installer must electrically ground all fan and
system components.

Testing
High temperature testing was conducted at
Greenheck’s Research and Development facility
with airstream temperatures in excess of 1000°F
(538°C). Temperatures were monitored at the
following critical locations throughout the tests:
bearings, bearing compartment, motor, motor
compartment, airstream and fan housing.

High Temperature/Emergency Smoke Control
The SWB Series 200 sizes 212 to 224 and
Series 300 may be equipped for emergency
smoke removal applications by specifying a
high temperature option. The table below right
indicates the construction features included in
the high temperature options enabling exhaust
of heat and smoke at 500°F (260°C) for a
minimum of 4 hours or 1000°F (538°C) for a
minimum of 15 minutes.
