Info & Guides

Description

Handle demanding ventilation needs using the Canarm 18-inch AX Series Direct Drive Shutter Mounted Aluminum Exhaust Fan. Built for continuous operation in industrial, commercial, and agricultural settings, this wall-mounted exhaust solution pairs a direct-drive motor with a rugged aluminum frame to move stale air out quickly and efficiently.

Whether you're upgrading a factory's airflow, keeping a warehouse comfortable, or adding fresh air exchange to a garage, you can rely on this shutter exhaust fan’s durable construction and straightforward installation to keep operations running smoothly with minimal downtime.

Key Features and Benefits of the Canarm 18-inch AX Series Direct Drive Shutter-Mounted Fan

  • Direct-Drive Efficiency: A 1/3-horsepower motor connects directly to the fan shaft.
  • High Airflow Output: Rated for up to 3,200 CFM (Model AX18-2 and AX18-3) or 3,150 CFM (AX18-1V), you can quickly clear smoke, humidity, or odors from busy work areas.
  • Automatic Aluminum Shutters: The aluminum shutters seal tightly when the fan is off, helping prevent backdrafts, rain intrusion, and energy loss.
  • Totally Enclosed Motor: The totally enclosed motor is protected from dust, debris, and overheating, extending service life in demanding environments.
  • OSHA-Compliant Guards: The chrome-plated safety guard protects personnel and meets workplace safety requirements.
  • Quiet for Its Class: Operating at up to 73 dB, the fan balances high airflow with manageable noise levels for most commercial sites.
  • Multiple Speed Options: Choose a single-speed, two-speed, or variable-speed model of this fan to match ventilation requirements in diverse applications.

Note: For variable speed operation, a variable speed controller is required.

Built For Demand Spaces

High-traffic facilities need equipment that performs day in, day out. The AX Series fan’s direct-drive setup spins the 18-inch blade at up to 1,725 RPM without the alignment checks and belt replacements that come with belt-drive models. Because the shutters close automatically, you also block wind, rain, and pests when the fan is off, preserving indoor cleanliness and comfort.

Sylvane’s Expert Take

If you need a dependable wall-mount exhaust fan that installs easily and runs with little maintenance, the Canarm 18-inch AX Series is a smart choice. Its direct-drive construction reduces parts that wear out, while automatic shutters and an OSHA guard add protection without extra steps. The standard 20-inch framing dimensions streamlines retrofit installations, making it easy to swap out older fans. Overall, it delivers robust airflow, durable materials, and install-and-forget convenience that busy facilities appreciate.
