Description

Long duct runs make a fan work harder. The Ruck Air Movement 16-Inch Prime 2429 CFM Mixed Flow Inline Duct Fan is designed and manufactured in Germany for those runs. Its blades are shaped to move a large volume of air efficiently, so you get strong ventilation without a heavy load on your electrical circuit.

Key Features and Benefits of the Ruck Air Movement 16-In. Prime 2429 CFM Mixed Flow Inline Duct Fan

2429 CFM Airflow: Moves up to 2429 cubic feet of air per minute, enough volume to ventilate large spaces or push air through long 16-inch duct runs.
Low 2-Amp Draw: Pulls only 2 amps and 385 watts at full output, so your energy use stays modest and the circuit has room for other equipment.
3D Impeller Blades: The 3D-shaped blades are engineered for high aerodynamic efficiency, so more of the motor's power becomes usable airflow.
3-Speed Manual Switch: The integrated switch sets airflow directly at the fan, so you can raise or lower it to suit the job.
Protected 4-Pole Motor: The single-phase AC motor sits enclosed in the hub of the housing, which keeps it shielded inside the fan body.
Wide Temperature Range: Runs in temperatures from -13 to 176 degrees F, so you can install it in unheated spaces or use it to move warm exhaust air.
Aluminum Housing: The gray housing measures 17.6 x 16.3 x 16.81-Inches (L x W x H) and weighs 28.38 pounds, so you can plan mounting space ahead of time.
UL and CSA: The fan carries UL and CSA certifications, which gives you recognized electrical safety approval for your ventilation project.
Mounting Bracket Included: The fan comes with its own mounting bracket, so you can secure it along your duct run as soon as it arrives.

Choose the Right Prime Size for Your Ductwork

This model fits 16-inch ducts and sits in the upper middle of the Prime series. If you need more airflow, the 18-Inch Prime reaches 3634 CFM and the 20-Inch Prime reaches 4595 CFM, for larger ducts and bigger air-exchange demands. For narrower systems, the 12-Inch Prime moves 1684 CFM and the 10-Inch Prime moves 1015 CFM, which keeps airflow in proportion to smaller rooms. The 6-Inch Prime, at 234 CFM, suits compact single-room ventilation, while 8-inch and 14-inch sizes cover duct diameters in between.

Sylvane's Expert Take

If you're ventilating a large space or pushing air through a long 16-inch duct run, this Prime fan gives you high airflow while drawing little power. Before you install it, make sure your power works with it: this fan plugs into a 220-240-volt supply, not a standard household outlet. The efficient impeller and protected hub motor matter most for moving that much air. For high-volume ductwork, it is hard to beat.
