Info & Guides

Move large volumes of stale or contaminated air quickly with the Canarm ALX180-DD100EC, an 18.25-inch spun aluminum direct drive downblast exhauster powered by a high-efficiency electronically commutated motor. Built for rooftop or wall installation, it delivers reliable ventilation for factories, warehouses, and other commercial facilities.

The corrosion-resistant housing, backward-inclined wheel, and true variable speed operation work together to provide consistent airflow while helping you reduce energy use and maintenance demands.

Key Features and Benefits of the Canarm ALX180 18.25-Inch Spun Aluminum EC Downblast Exhauster

  • Energy-Saving EC Motor: Electronically commutated technology delivers up to 82 percent motor efficiency, trimming electrical usage by as much as 70 percent compared with traditional permanent split-capacitor motors.

  • Powerful Output: The 1-horsepower motor of the Canarm ALX180 has a max airflow capacity of 3,800 CFM (at 0.0 inches w.g. static pressure) and maintains a 2,200 CFM output even when static pressure is as high as 1.25 inches w.g. It has a max fan speed of 1,200 RPMs.

  • Adjustable Airflow: A built-in potentiometer and 0-10V terminals let you dial fan speed from 425 to 1,200 RPM. It can be controlled remotely up to 50’ using a remote mount potentiometer or 0-10V.

  • Flexible Installation: This model can be installed as either a rooftop or wall-mounted exhaust fan in a 20.75 inch opening.

  • Consistent Power: The non-overloading backward-inclined wheel maintains consistent airflow output draw across the static pressure range, protecting the motor.

  • Corrosion-Proof Housing: Spun-aluminum construction will not rust, chip, or peel, making it ideal for coastal installations and harsh weather environments.

  • Dual-Voltage Versatility: Runs on single-phase 120 or 240-volt power at 50 or 60 hertz, simplifying integration across job sites.

Energy Cost Savings

Despite the ALX180's large size, its EC motor technology draws far less power than PSC (permanent-split-capacitor) motors, offering energy savings of up to 70 percent. Because the speed is fully adjustable, you only move the exact volume of air your application demands, whether that is full-load fume extraction during peak production or low-speed air change during off-hours. This modulation lowers kilowatt-hour usage, extends motor life, and can contribute to meeting building energy targets or green certification goals.

Sylvane’s Expert Take

If you need a large rooftop exhaust solution with a strong focus on energy savings, the ALX180 EC exhauster is an excellent choice. Its high-efficiency motor, corrosion-proof housing, and easy service access translate to lower life-cycle costs and fewer call-backs. Variable speed control, both local and remote, keeps airflow aligned with changing facility demands. For commercial ventilation projects that demand durability and verifiable performance, this model delivers.
