“Using a puller fan is seen as a better practice,” says Brent Chuck, application engineer at SPAL USA. “Mounting the fan in front of the radiator adds a restriction to airflow through the system. So, it’s seen as a better practice to put the fan on the engine side and add the restriction after the radiator. When the fan is mounted as a pusher, it b...
Another thing to consider is blade design. SPAL has various blade designs to choose from (straight, curved, and paddle), and each has an operational parameter. “Usually, people have the best results from the thicker fans and the thicker fan blades,” says Brent. “I typically recommend fans like our part number 30102082 with a curved-paddle blade. Th...
Performance:
1. The curved-paddle blade is the best for performance but is a thicker fan requiring more room. 2. The straight blade is the next option in regard to performance. 3. The curved S-blade does not perform as well as the others.
Noise:
1. The straight-blade fan is the loudest. 2. The curved S-blade delivers improved noise reduction. 3. A paddle blade is the quietest. The blade design is more aggressive, so it makes more of a wind sound versus a whining sound like the others. “Basically, we always recommend paddle blades if you can fit them,” says Brent. “They offer the best noise/performance. The other two designs are simply made to be thin, so they make a less desirable noise.”
Finally, electric fans are rated according to the amount of air that can be pushed or pulled through the radiator. This is measured in cubic-feet-per-minute (cfm). In order to find the fan that will work best for your needs, you first need to determine the ideal amount of airflow required to meet your cooling capacity. As a guideline, a typical sma...
- SPAL brushed axial electric fans can provide a lifetime of between 5,000 hours up to 10,000 hours. That is 298.33 to 416.66 continuous days without stopping.
- SPAL does not sell replacement parts for fans. Every fan that SPAL manufacturers are individually balanced three times during the production process.
- SPAL electric fans can be mounted to run horizontally. In applications where the electric fan is installed in a horizontal position — that is with the motor cover facing up or down — the use of a fan with drainage holes in the hub is recommended.
- SPAL makes waterproof cooling fan motors. All IP68-certified SPAL motors are WP (Water Proof). This means they are completely sealed and therefore protected against the ingress of solid and liquid agents.
SPAL offers a complete range of single electric fans up to 16-inches in diameter as well as dual electric fans in various CFM and amp ratings. Dual-electric fans are often selected for high-horsepower vehicles, including forced-air induction applications. Like other manufacturers, SPAL offers straight, curved, and curved-paddle blade designs.
SPAL, an ISO/TS-16949 certified company, designs and manufacturers sealed DC brush and brushless motor electric cooling fans and blowers for OEM automotive, bus, truck, off-highway, construction, powersports, military, marine, and the stationary equipment (generator/APU) markets.
Electric Fans. SPAL Low-Profile Electric Fans. Available in puller or pusher models, SPAL Low-Profile Electric Fans provide industry-leading airflow for even the most demanding radiator cores. Their patented motor ensures the greatest amount of flow in the thinnest design possible. SPAL realizes not all vehicles require ultimate airflow.
