High pressure increase at lower flow rate
ebm‑papst industrial centrifugal compact fans

Efficient & adaptive ventilation

ebm‑papst compact fans are highly versatile, having many sizes, as well as AC and DC motor technologies. Our products can also be improved significantly with digital features.

Compact centrifugal fans are effective when airflow needs to be deflected at a 90° angle, or when a higher pressure increase is required. Our fans are available with forward and backward curved blades. Products with forward curved blades are also supplied with scroll housing, and we offer motor/impeller combinations without external housings too.

RadiCal (DC)

A perfect match for ventilation and air-conditioning systems, the RadiCal combines top performance with ultra-efficient energy use. Its advanced motor ensures improved EMC performance and minimizes bearing currents. Delivered as a ready-to-mount centrifugal module, it offers effortless plug & play installation.

Radical DC

RVE45 (DC)

A redesigned version of the RV45, the RVE45 is developed for industrial applications. The fan is ideal for environments that need dynamic air delivery with a high static pressure increase. Use cases include fuel cells, smoke detectors, and packaging machines.

DC compact centrifugal fans

Our DC centrifugal product range includes fans for every application, whether it’s a free-running impeller or a complete, ready-to-install, compact housing with inlet nozzle.

  • All fan types with efficient, brushless motor technology, an electronically commutated drive and electronic reverse polarity protection have a long life expectancy and outstanding efficiency.
  • This reduces the thermal load, thus ensuring maximum efficiency and a long service life.

We offer IP20 as standard, but also have environmental protection solutions up to IP68 and IP6k9k to meet the highest requirements.

NEXAIRA enables fan speed control, noise-optimized operation, and real-time monitoring via digitalization.

AC compact centrifugal fans

The tried-and-tested AC fans from ebm‑papst are used wherever DC voltage is not available. In addition to complete devices, you will also find fans without external housing. These offer economic benefits whenever the air duct design can be integrated in the device that is being ventilated.

  • AC centrifugal fans are available in many sizes with forward or backward-curved fan impeller. Depending on the installation situation, it is a pure fan impeller or is combined with a housing with optimized air flow and noise.
  • Fan drives through shaded-pole or capacitor motors usually incorporate the familiar external rotor principle. This design combines high performance with economic efficiency.
  • ebm‑papst also offers particularly flat AC fans with an internal rotor motor. The advantage of these is their fast start-up to full speed, resulting in lower mass moments of inertia.

All fan types are designed in IP20 as standard. IP54 / IP68 solutions and special protection types are available on request.
