Stainless Steel Impeller

Stainless Steel Impeller

Mining Fans and Auxiliary Ventilation Fans

Mining fans ventilate development headings, districts and underground chambers in coal, metal and non-metal mines. SINDFAN supplies contra-rotating auxiliary ventilation fans (FBD-class) together with matching impellers and duct connections: two motors driving directly on their own shafts, no inter-stage duct, rail bogie available for underground use.

Mining duty carries strict certification requirements. Equipment for underground coal mines needs a mining product safety mark (MA) and explosion-proof (Ex) approval, and the motors, terminal boxes and control pushbuttons must all be explosion-proof types. We supply to the certification requirement of the project region.

Key specifications

ModelMining contra-rotating auxiliary fan (FBD-I-6.3 / 2x30 class and similar)
Impeller diameterØ400 - Ø1250mm (typically Ø600 / Ø630 / Ø800)
Motors2 x 18.5kW to 2 x 37kW, direct on shaft
Air volumeapprox. 5 - 12 m³/s
Total pressure3000 - 4000 Pa class
Delivery distanceapprox. 300m with Ø600 ducting; 600-800m with Ø800 ducting (reliable figures)
Blade materialCast aluminium or fabricated steel
MobilityRail bogie (600mm gauge) / fixed base
Explosion-proofBrass wear ring, explosion-proof motor and terminal box as required by certification

Figures above are our standard ranges; the actual supply is per the agreed technical specification. Impeller performance curves describe the bare impeller under standard inlet conditions. Once installed, performance is affected by casing clearance, tip clearance, inlet straightening and guide vanes; tested as a complete fan to GB/T 1236 / AMCA 210 the result typically differs by 2-5%. Site measurement governs and no complete-fan performance warranty is implied.

Typical applications

  • Coal mine development heading ventilation
  • District and chamber ventilation
  • Metal mine heading ventilation
  • Tunnel and underground forcing ventilation
  • Gas drainage roadway ventilation
  • Underground refuge chamber air supply

Selection notes

  • Confirm the certification list first: underground coal mines require MA plus Ex; non-coal metal mines are usually less strict; most overseas mines do not recognise Chinese MA but do recognise ATEX / IECEx.
  • Select on the longest delivery distance plus duct leakage. Site acceptance usually measures flow at the heading, so a conservative figure is safer.
  • For contra-rotating units the wear ring matters: tip clearance and material pairing drive safety, and a 1.5-2mm per side tip clearance is recommended for certified builds.
  • Confirm the underground supply voltage and starting method (vacuum contactor or soft starter) in advance.

FAQ

Do you hold mining approval (MA)?

MA is handled project by project. Full unit certification involves type testing and a factory audit, typically 3-6 months. Where local MA is not required (for example overseas mines) we can work to ATEX / IECEx or to no mandatory certification.

Can the two stages run out of synchronisation?

Each impeller is driven by its own motor in opposite directions with no mechanical coupling between them, so provided the supply is normal and both motors start the same way, running is stable.

How is delivery distance determined?

From the total duct resistance: about 330 Pa per 100m for Ø800 ducting and about 1400 Pa per 100m for Ø600. We quote both a reliable and a maximum figure; acceptance should use the reliable figure.

What does the unit weigh?

A Ø630 contra-rotating unit including motors is roughly 950-1000kg depending on blade material (cast aluminium or steel); mobile versions come on a rail bogie.
