Sabre Sickle Fan Assisted Roof Cowls (VSR) Swept impeller with Aerofoil blades, winglets and serrated trailing edge for optimum performance Fully assembled cowl, separate plate axial fan Optional backdraught shutters and birdguard Moulded from recyclable polymeric material One shot die cast aluminium impeller dynamically balanced for smooth operation Resistant to UV light Speed controllable Thermal Overload Protection for motor protection Operating temperature up to 7 C The latest generation of the Vent-Axia Sabre Sickle Fan assisted roof cowls incorporate the very latest FE2 Owlett plate axial fans supplied separate to the cowl offering improved performance over the previous ranges with up to 7dB(A) reduction in sound and up to 5% improvement in efficiency ensuring the best available fan performance in its class. The advanced blade design is matched to a purpose designed external rotor motor to ensure unrivalled reliability and controllability. All cowl and roof mounting plates are moulded from specially formulated polymeric materials, which are high impact resistant and provide a rigid profile against strong winds and are resistant to UV light. Standard Colour BSA5. Alternative colours are available on request. Suitable for flat or inclined roofs (max. angle 3 ). Sabre Sickle Fan assisted roof cowls are designed for either kerb or purlin box mounting. All sizes are fitted with inlet wire guards, giving protection to BS 848 part 5. Bird guards are available as optional accessories. Design and Development Using a combination of NASA research into wing performance and winglets, coupled with a study of bird flight has enabled the development of the best available Sickle blade profile. Matching this to a purpose designed close fitting casing ensures best use of this blade technology thereby reducing noise and improving the performance in cased axial fans. Impellers The impellers incorporate the latest in Sickle blade aerofoil technology to ensure minimum sound and maximum performance. The motors and impellers are factory matched, statically and dynamically balanced to ISO 94 part, Quality Class G.6.3. Motors The external rotor motors are specifically designed and styled for this range of fan. Ball bearings are greased for life. Sizes 35 7 motors are protected to IP54 against dust and moisture complying with BS EN 6529. to 7, 6 & 8 pole motors are only suitable for operating temperatures of up to 4 C. Electrical The Sabre Sickle Fan assisted roof cowls range is available for either single phase 22-24V Hz capacitor start and run or three phase 38-45V Hz. Motors are fitted with Thermal Overload Protection which should be wired into all controller circuits and into starter contacts to prevent motor damage due to overloading / overheating. Speed Control Units are suitable for speed control by either electronic, voltage reduction or frequency inverters where permissible. For optimum efficiency and controllability Vent-Axia recommend the use of the edemand Inverter controller to give close control via sensors or manual control. Terminal Box An IP54 terminal box is supplied with all models with M2 x.5mm gland entry offering protection against dust and water. Performance The fan performance is in accordance with tests to ISO 58. Sound Levels Fan sound levels are measured in a reverberant chamber in accordance with ISO 3744 Part. Published db(a) figures are free field sound pressure levels at 3m with spherical propagation at a reference level of 2 x -5 Pa (2 micro-pascal). The sound power level spectra figures are db with a reference level of -2 Watts ( pico-watt). To ensure minimum noise levels during speed control, either an auto transformer or edemand inverter speed control is recommended. They have ribbed aluminium body castings for efficient cooling with Motor insulation to Class F (from -4 C to + 7 C). Speed controlled sizes 4
