Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fan with a housing and an impeller arranged on a motor shaft, which can be driven by a motor.
- the blower according to the invention is also designed specifically as a mixing fan for conveying and mixing of combustible media with air, with which usually the combustible or explosive mixture is conveyed to a burner.
- the invention relates to the use of an insulating fan impeller in a mixing fan for conveying and mixing a combustible medium with air, wherein preferably gas is used as the combustible medium.
- the blowers according to the invention are preferably used in heating technology.
- electrostatic charges of the fan components, in particular of the housing and of the fan wheel the danger of a sparking and possibly of it resulting ignition of the mixture within the blower, which is safe to avoid.
- the measures provided for in the prior art are cost-intensive, structurally complex and sometimes difficult to recycle.
- blower wheel or the housing in the case of mixing blowers, ie plastics which have been compounded with conductive materials such as carbon black or carbon, in order thus to achieve a conductive component.
- conductive materials such as carbon black or carbon
- blower wheels made of compound materials used in the prior art are capable of dissipating, and components with an applied antistatic surface coating are conductive or conductive. It is the object of the present invention to provide a more cost effective blower that is more recyclable.
- a fan designed as a mixing fan for conveying and mixing a combustible medium with air comprises an impeller which is designed to be insulating.
- the impeller can be mounted without grounding and can be operated during operation without additionally provided grounding. It is particularly advantageous if the impeller is arranged groundless on the motor shaft. In a preferred embodiment, the impeller is of a sorted type
- Plastic preferably polyamide, is formed, whereby in the present case a plastic without compounding is understood to mean "unmixed.” However, it is possible to color the plastic without departing from the scope of protection of the term "pure”.
- this preferably has a surface resistance Ro of at least 10 9 ⁇ . Also protected are materials with a surface resistance R 0 of 10 10 , 10 11 , 10 12 ⁇ with all intermediate values.
- the measurement of the surface resistance can be done for example by a tera-ohmmeter LEM Unilab 5 kV, but also test methods according to DIN IEC 6093 are possible.
- the blower according to the invention can have an overall surface of the blower wheel, formed from blower surface and blower fan, in the range between 25 cm 2 and 500 cm 2 , preferably between 25 and 400 cm 2 , more preferably between 25 and 300 cm 2 preferably between 25 and 200 cm 2 , more preferably between 25 and 150 cm 2 , wherein a charge up to voltage levels that could cause an ignition within the blower, are not achieved.
- the total surface area of the housing may range between 25 cm 2 and 1000 cm 2 .
- the at least one shaft bearing and / or the motor shaft and / or the shaft seal can likewise be embodied insulated in order to minimize discharges from charges via the shaft bearing.
- the use of an insulating shaft seal makes it possible to use a simpler and sorted seal.
- the gas is supplied in the intake area.
- By mixing the gas in the intake higher heat outputs can be achieved because due to the negative pressure in the blower more gas can be added.
- the impeller advantageous characteristics apply mutatis mutandis for the housing of the blower, which can be made insulating, earth-free operable and can be formed from sorted plastic.
- Both the housing and the impeller can be manufactured by injection molding. It is also possible to use a conventional metal housing made of die-cast, for example made of aluminum, and an inventive Use blower wheel. The invention therefore also includes the use of an insulating impeller in any mixing fan.
- conductive components have always been used to exclude the device itself as the ignition source of the explosive fuel-air mixture.
- an ignition voltage of 1000-2000V is sufficient to realize the ignition.
- gases commonly used in Europe there must already be more than 3000V ignition voltage to allow ignition.
- the insulating fan and / or blower housing used according to the invention can also charge due to the flow within the fan and optionally in the intake air dust particles (in extreme cases up to 800 pg / m 3 ) at high speed of over 6500 U / min
- the values achieved are well below the critical ignition values, so that a grounding unnecessary and accidental ignition due to static electricity within the fan is still excluded.
- the possibly occurring minimal charges discharge themselves independently without further action within a very short time.
- an electric field meter PFM-711A can be used to measure the charges or to determine the surface potential.
- the blower is followed by a burner, which acts as a flame arrester.
- the explosive volume of the atmosphere within the blower is less than 10 liters and greater than 0.05 liters.
- FIG. 1 shows a cross section through a blower according to the prior art
- FIG. 1 shows a cross-section of a blower with a housing 1, an impeller 2 arranged therein, which is arranged on a motor shaft 3, where is mounted at the motor shaft by means of a bearing system 5. Further, a shaft seal 4 is provided, in which the bearing 5 is inserted. All components are designed to be conductive or conductive, so that charges are conducted from the impeller 2 to the housing 1 and are discharged via a ground (not shown). The elaborate dissipation of the charge is shown by arrows. The charges on the impeller 2 are directed to the motor shaft 3 and from this passes through the bearing 5 via the shaft seal 4 to the housing 1.
- the blower according to the invention overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art and, due to the insulating design of at least the blower wheel, enables a cost-effective solution to requirements that have always existed.
