Type SASD/SAED Axial Roof Ventilator
APPLICATIONS: The SASD/SAED is a low silhouette axial propeller roof ventilator that is compatible with modern architectural lines and also matches ILG¡¦s centrifugal power roof ventilators. Units provide general supply (SASD) or exhaust (SAED) of low, medium or high air volumes in commercial, institutional and light manufacturing buildings.
CONSTRUCTION:Round spun aluminum hood, Heavy gauge hood supports, Vibration isolators, Galvanized wire bird screen. Spun axial roof ventilators shall have circular hoods of spun aluminum. Ventilators will be low in silhouette to conform to present architectural styles. Square bases will be constructed of aluminum. Ventilators will be equipped with galvanized mesh bird screen. ƒnWeatherproof heavy duty aluminum housing resists corrosion and maintains appearance. Deep-spun, one-piece venturi improves efficiency and minimizes pressure losses. ƒnBird screen prevents entry of birds or other potentially damaging objects.
OPTIONS & ACCESSORIES:
Prefabricated Insulated roof curbs
with weather-resistant continuous welded
construction are available for convenience in installation for both
insulated and non-insulated roof decks. Backdraft Dampers of Gravity or
motor operated type, constructed out of aluminum and designed for
installation in prefabricated roof curbs. Protective Coatings: special
protective coatings are available where units may be exposed to
corrosive exterior conditions. Parts requiring painting are processed
through the American Coolair fivestage pretreatment system prior to the
application of any coatings to insure maximum finish adhesion. These
parts use a thermosetting epoxy powder paint with an average thickness
of 3 mils and baked at 400 F to a smooth, hard continuous finish.
The fan efficiency is defined as
the ratio of air power (output) to shaft power requirement (input). An
optimally designed fan impeller with improved aerodynamics requires
less shaft input power for desired delivery of air volume with total
pressure rise as per the system requirement. With reduced shaft power
requirement, there is a commensurate reduction in energy consumption.

requirement, there is a commensurate reduction in energy consumption.
Thus the fan efficiency is directly contingent upon selection of fan
and the operating point relevant to the system resistance. The way fan
impellers (blades or rotors) are designed, the amount of air they can
move decreases as the pressure they are working against increases. The
airflow vs. pressure information for a particular fan is called the fan
performance data. The performance of a fan depends on the size, shape
& speed of the impeller. The fan performance data is essential for
selecting fans as per the desired airflow and system pressure.
