Rosenberg EC motors (EC = electronically commutated) are inverter-fed synchronous motor with permanent magnets in external rotor design. The AC mains voltage is rectified in the commutation electronics of the EC motor. A downstream inverter provides the motor with the motor voltage depending on the position, similar to the principle of a frequency inverter. In opposite to this, all parameters are already optimally matched to each other. The intelligent EC commutation electronics decide how the motor phases in the stator are supplied with cur...
When installing a HVAC system, the main aim is usually to heat or cool the environment for employee comfort. Often underestimated is the impact that HVAC systems can have on employee health. Corrosion, caused by the presence of chemicals, is one of the biggest threats to HVAC systems and indicates an unsafe environment for employees. Corrosion damage and its consequences in HVAC systems are discussed below. What is Corrosion Damage? Corrosion mainly occurs in metals when they react with their environments; their refined form turns into stable...
The UK's offshore wind power capacity is set to nearly double by 2030, as a result of a new government initiative. Offshore wind has become an increasingly affordable source of clean energy due to plummeting costs. This, coupled with an increasing environmental awareness in consumers, is reinvigorating the focus on wind as a source of inexpensive, renewable energy. Wind turbines require fans to ventilate and cool several different areas to maintain and preserve the functioning of its equipment. These areas include the nacelle, generator, tra...
Better control of fan speed means better control of energy consumption and energy costs, inverters can help. What do inverters do? Put simply, an inverter is used to vary the speed of the motor to match the required load. In most cases, fans are specified to match the maximum ventilation requirements of the setting. Installing an inverter allows you to control the speed of your fan motor to match the actual ventilation needs, rather than run the fan at full power constantly. An inverter can vary the motor speed with no loss of efficiency. ...
In 2016 here at Axair Fans we went Carbon zero. We did this in partnership with Carbon management company CO2 Balance and we became carbon zero by offsetting our carbon emissions. Previously, our partnership helped set up effective home stoves for a number of under developed countries such as Ethiopia and Malawi. Now work has begun to help with another major issue in under developed countries, clean water. Around the world approximately 663 million people don’t have access to safe water supplies. That’s 1 in 10 people. A shocking st...
Midlands Air Ambulance is the charity responsible for funding and operating three air ambulances serving the communities of six Midlands counties: Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands. This constitutes the largest air ambulance operating region in the UK. Since 1991, the charity has responded to more than 46,000 missions averaging 2,000 per year, making it one of the longest established and busiest air ambulance organisations in the UK. The charity’s three air crafts each carry ...
In the last six months Axair has taken our commitment to getting involved in the environment and local community seriously. From support for local families and the elderly, our local community clean up initiative and becoming a carbon zero company, we’re excited to officially sponsor the Kidsafe initiative for Staffordshire Schools. Through our support, Kidsafe can provide informative and educational material to encourage children to consider key topics including road safety, stranger danger, racism and bullying, drugs and the green cross ...
At Axair we’re always looking for ways to get involved in the local community whether it be supporting local charities in sporting events or helping those in need in our recent Christmas present appeal. This Spring Axair decided it to get into the community spirit and focus directly on a cause that concerns us each and every day. On our daily drive into work, we have noticed an increasing amount of litter on the embankments. Being located on an Industrial estate close to the main dual carriageway ultimately means it’s frequented by long ...
Axair Becomes A Carbon Zero Company With Green and environmental issues being of huge importance with UK Businesses, Axair have taken their Green credentials a step further to become a carbon zero company by offsetting their carbon emissions in partnership with carbon management company Co2 Balance. Carbon reduction programmes aim to work alongside environmentally responsible businesses and under developed communities to reduce the impact on climate change and global emissions. Each year in low income and under developed countries, 2.7 ...
More Charity News >> Rob The Runner >> In May last year, we told you about the inspirational actions of Jamie-Leigh Dobson, the daughter of Axair Fan’s Warehouse Manager, Jim Dobson, who shaved her head to raise money for Cancer Research UK. 12-year-old Jamie-Leigh was already talking about her next fundraising event back then and she stayed true to her word, this time taking on the toiling task of climbing Mount Snowdon. At 3,560 ft, Mount Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales; with its summit the highest point in the...
Daughter of Axair Fans Warehouse Manager, Jim Dobson, has carried out an inspiring headshave in aid of Cancer Research UK. Eleven year old Jamie-Leigh Dobson decided to shave her head to raise money for the worthy cause after her Grandad received the all clear from cancer in November. Taking place at a charity event at Wolstanton Social Club, the event raised hundreds of pounds for Cancer Research UK including a generous donation from Axair Fans UK Ltd.Jamie-Leigh’s granddad David Carter told The Sentinel: “When she told me she wanted...
