Continuous Duty and Emergency Exhaust
TBI-FS with optional high temperature construction
are factory-modified for operation in high temperature
continuous duty applications. With propeller on the
discharge end of the fan, negative pressure is created in
the belt tube during operation. Ambient air is drawn in
through the belt tube and cools the belts and bearings.
For the greatest amount of internal cooling, discharge
static pressure should be kept to a minimum while
keeping most of the pressure on the inlet side. Locate
the fan at ends of the duct runs and near the discharge
point in the system. This set-up will promote the
ambient air cooling effect.

Typical Installations
With Mounting Brackets
Following are typical mounting installations for models
with mounting brackets. Diagrams show dimensions for
ceiling hung installations. The dimensions for floor or
base mount installations are mirror images of these.
For TBI models with motor in the 3 or 9 o’clock position
or vertical installations, additional mounting rails are
recommended. Mounting rail dimensions are shown for
field fabrication.
