Paint Booth Fan InformationA-Frame Paint Booths utilize a tubeaxial fan for exhaust. The fan that comes with your A-Frame booth is designed to exhaust the required cubic feet per minute (CFM) specified by OSHA 1910. The size and horsepower of the fan is based on a cross-section measurement of the booth. For example: Our Squall booth is 13’ wide at the bottom, 10’ wide at the top, and 8’ tall (92 square feet.) OSHA 1910 requires 100 linear feet per minute. 92 x 100 = 9,200. Our 24” fan will exhaust 9,500 CFM at 1/2” static pressure. Since the required fan size is based on a cross-section measurement, the overall length of the booth does not change the amount of air exhausted by the fan. The 24” fan will exhaust the same amount of air from a 10’ long booth or a 23’ long booth. A-Frame fans feature aluminum, non-sparking blades that reside in continuously welded, heavy-gauge, corrosion-resistant, enamel-coated steel housings. The housing is flanged with pre-punched mounting holes for easy connection to ductwork. Heavy-gauge galvanized steel motor and bearing supports provide maximum strength with minimal airflow resistance. All propellers are statically and dynamically balanced for quiet, vibration-free operation.Every A-Frame paint booth fan is marked with a fan rotation sticker which has an arrow indicating proper direction. Please be sure to visually verify the direction of the fan rotation. If the fan is wired backwards, it will actually pull a small amount of air out of the booth, but nowhere near the amount of air when wired correctly. Return from Paint Booth Fan to Home |
