Double inlet centrifugal fan for railways
2GDF65 160x242L
The ECOFIT 2GDF65 160x242L fan is an example of a ventilation solution specially designed to meet the high demands of the railway sector. Thanks to its optimized mechanical design and IP55 protection, this double inlet centrifugal fan offers increased resistance to harsh environments, dust, and pressurized water jets. This level of protection makes it an ideal solution for rolling stock subjected to intensive operating conditions.
Technical features designed for durability and safety
The 2GDF65 160x242L model incorporates two sealed ceramic ball bearings, renowned for their durability and excellent performance under vibration stress. These bearings reduce maintenance requirements and extend the service life of the equipment, a major advantage in the railway sector where interventions are costly and must be limited.
The product complies with the EN 45545-2 + A1 HL3 / R23 standard, a high level of fire performance requirement for railway equipment. This compliance ensures maximum safety in critical environments such as high-speed trains, subways, trams, and locomotives.
The motor features stator encapsulation, providing resistance to the power supply network specific to railway equipment. This device guarantees reliable operation, even in the presence of hygrometric variations or condensation, conditions frequently encountered in railway infrastructure.
Easy installation and maintenance
The fan is equipped with a connection box that allows our customers to connect quickly and easily. This design reduces installation time, minimizes the risk of wiring errors, and facilitates replacement or maintenance operations. For integrators and railway manufacturers, this translates into reduced operating costs and optimized intervention time.
With its ability to operate in a wide range from -20°C to +40°C, the 2GDF65 160x242L model remains efficient in all climates, from very cold regions to areas subject to high temperatures.
Advantages of double inlet centrifugal fan technology
Double inlet centrifugal fans offer several advantages:
- High air flow in a compact footprint
- Low noise level compared to traditional solutions thanks to the action turbine
- Perfectly suited to medium pressure applications
- Optimized efficiency for compact ventilation systems
Applications in the railway sector
The GDF 2GDF65 160x242L fan has many applications in the railway industry:
- Ventilation of driver's cabs
- Cooling of electrical cabinets and on-board electronic systems
- Ventilation of technical compartments (converters, transformers, batteries)
- Air conditioning systems (HVAC) for trains, subways, and trams
Thanks to its robust design, compliance with fire safety standards, and high level of performance, it offers a reliable and durable solution that is perfectly suited to the constraints of modern rail transport.
