(iii) The fan shall be equipped with eight (8) Powerfoil winglets on the ends of the airfoils and eight (8) AirFences positioned on the airfoils at the optimum location for performance. Both the winglet and AirFence shall be molded of polypropylene. (iv) Motor and Gearbox - IP55 motor and NitroSeal Drive gearbox.The fan gearbox shall be a NitroSeal Drive designed. The gearbox shall include a high-efficiency, hermetically sealed, nitrogen-filled, offset helical gear reducer with two-stage gearing, a hollow output shaft, cast iron housing, double lip seals, high quality SKF Explorer Series bearings with crowned cages for optimal lubrication flow, and precision machined gearing to maintain backlash less than 11 arc-minutes over the life of the unit. Lubrication shall be high-grade, low-foaming synthetic oil with extreme pressure additives and a wide temperature range. The gearbox shall be equipped with a hollow shaft threaded to accept a ¾" NPT fitting in which wiring, piping, etc., can be routed to below the fan. (v) Onboard VFD - enclosed in an ABS/PVC-based enclosure with built-in heatsink. The onboard fan controller shall be constructed using a variable frequency drive (VFD) that is pre-wired to the motor and factory-programmed to minimize the starting and braking torques for smooth and efficient operation.
