To improve employee comfort
at its warehouse facilities in
the Netherlands, Ubbink has
replaced three high-speed ceiling
fans with just one High Volume/Low
Speed Revolution Fan from Caljan
Rite-Hite.

The 4.88m diameter fan keeps the
temperature consistent in an area of
approximately 30 x 20m, even in the
corners. Draughts are avoided as the
air is de-stratified to keep
temperatures consistent from floor
to ceiling.Warehouse manager,
Marcel Dibbes was impressed by the
savings on energy costs.

“The marginal effect of the highspeed
fans, which was apparent only
if you stood directly beneath them,
didn’t equate with the high energy
consumption. The investment in the
Revolution Fan has proved to be
really worthwile.We expect a payback
time of just 2 years,” he says.

The Revolution Fan, which uses
universal steel mounting brackets, is
said to be simple to install. The
mounting system includes a beam
clamp and four stabilising cables.
