WISTRO ATEX and IECEx Explosion-Proof Fan Units

Explosion-proof WISTRO forced ventilation units are qualified for hazardous zones compliant with ATEX and IECEx specifications. Built for cold environments down to -40 °C with IP66 ingress protection. Spares include terminal enclosures, brackets and flanges.

  • Hazardous standards: compliant with IECEx and ATEX rules
  • Thermal envelope: low temperature resilience down to -40 °C
  • Corrosion barrier: marine grade seawater-resistant alloy
  • Maintenance parts: sealed junction boxes, brackets, flanges

Design Principles and Aerodynamic Engineering of WISTRO Units

WISTRO forced cooling units are engineered around fluid-dynamic principles to provide optimum heat dissipation across electric motor stator cooling fins. The streamlined cowl and balanced impeller assembly maintain continuous volumetric delivery with minimal inlet airflow turbulence.

Utilizing heavy-gauge galvanized sheet steel and corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy guarantees structural rigidity when installed on heavy industrial machinery operating around the clock.

Optimization for Inverter-Driven Variable Speed Electric Motors

When industrial drives operate through variable frequency inverters at low rotational speeds, shaft-mounted cooling fans lose their airflow throughput. WISTRO external forced cooling units supply an uninterrupted volumetric flow rate independent of the main motor drive shaft velocity.

This continuous forced ventilation eliminates thermal degradation of motor winding insulation during extended low-speed, high-torque operation.

Multi-Voltage Electrical Configurations and Power Terminal Integration

WISTRO ventilation modules incorporate multi-voltage winding designs that allow one baseline unit to operate reliably across global industrial power grids.

The internal fan motors support single-phase 230V lines with an integrated run capacitor, as well as three-phase industrial supplies from 230V up to 575V. This electrical versatility streamlines project planning for multinational equipment builders.

Compact Geometries and Radial Airflow Solutions for Tight Enclosures

In compact machinery bays where axial intake space behind the motor end shield is obstructed by walls, standard cooling cowls face severe throttling. The specialized WISTRO FLAIR configuration overcomes space limitations through radial lateral intake ports.

This airflow redirection enables flush machine bulkhead installation without sacrificing static pressure or cooling effectiveness.

Environmental Ingress Protection IP66 and Severe Weather Resilience

Standard WISTRO forced ventilation units maintain consistent IP66 ingress protection against industrial dust and heavy water washdown. Combining seawater-resistant alloy structures with protective coatings delivers durable corrosion prevention across demanding industrial sites.

The cooling assemblies perform reliably in maritime terminals, processing plants, chemical facilities and outdoor operating bays.

Hazardous Environment Compliance under ATEX and IECEx Standards

For volatile production facilities in oil, gas, chemical processing and bulk material handling, WISTRO delivers dedicated explosion-proof fan units.

Qualified under international IECEx and European ATEX standards for gas and combustible dust zones, these units incorporate non-sparking impellers, explosion-proof terminal housings and cold-weather construction rated down to -40 °C.
