AERATION OF FLUIDS

CFW Fans provides the blowers for aeration applications in wastewater treatment and aquaculture. We supply lateral channel blowers (sometimes called side channel blowers or ring blowers) for providing oil-free air for higher-pressure applications.

AIR KNIVES

Industrial Air Knives provide an efficient, cost effective and compact solution to many cleaning, liquid film management and drying applications. A high energy stream of air does the work, hence there is no mechanical contact with the process.

COOLING FANS AND SYSTEMS

CFW Fans manufactures many types of fans and blowers suitable for air supply or extraction in industrial process cooling systems. Our fans are reliable and can deal with the demands of systems that need to operate at various temperatures.

DRYING PROCESS

CFW can supply fans for drying systems from simple batch dryers to large drying rooms stacked with product that use bidirectional fans for slow drying or curing processes such as tea withering. Very fast continuous processes are used for drying paper. Whatever the drying application, CFW Fans can deliver the air movement equipment necessary to regulate temperature and humidity in the drying space.

ENVIRONMENT SEPARATION -AFIM® INDUSTRIAL AIR CURTAINS

The CFW group is the proud supplier of AFIM® Air Doors. The Air Door technology ensures much more effective air separation than conventional air curtains. A conventional air curtain works with huge amounts of air, to which a lot of energy-guzzling heat is added. The AFIM® Air Door, however, requires only a minimal amount of air, which, moreover, does not need to be conditioned. Thanks to higher air pressure, the Air Door cuts through the air far more effectively than traditional air curtains.

POSITIVE PRESSURE VENTILATORS FOR FIREFIGHTING

Used by firefighters to clear smoke from burning buildings. The CFW PPV440 combines the reliability and expertise of CFW’s 50 years of design and manufacturing experience with the proven track record of the 5.5 HP Honda GX 160 petrol engine, providing an essential tool for firefighting operations.
