Technology Benefits
Advanced fan engineering
The secret of Elta Multiflow technology lies in its extensively researched and patented mixed flow impeller, which incorporates adjustable blade geometry. The Elta Multiflow impeller has been designed for use in Multiflow impellers when mounted within direct driven fan units provide a wide range of performance options through their blade angle adjustment. Within Multiflow MFB ducted fans, the centrally placed electric motor is supported on aerodynamically profiled guide vanes. a variety of air moving equipment. This brochure gives performance details within square cased Multiflow MFB units and shows the resultant performance and space advantages. Elta Multiflow technology provides for the first time, the ability to select a single direct driven mixed flow fan that can meet a wide selection of alternative performance contours and duty requirements. With fixed blade designs, the choice is either to make a selection from a limited number of fixed performance contours or, consider the more costly and less space efficient belt driven varients.
Guide Vanes Support the drive motor and provide enhanced airflow performance.
Multiflows unique impeller blade geometry results in enhanced performance.

Improved Performance
The unique design of Multiflow MFB fans enables the required performance to be attained from a smaller fan size than is normally achievable with typical conical style, fixed blade mixed flow fans. As the airstream leaving a Multiflow MFB impeller is more axially orientated, it permits the casing to be closer to the impeller periphery, without incurring losses; so retaining excellent air performance, power and sound levels.

Also, as Multiflow MFB incorporates an impeller of relatively wide air passage design, the resultant air throughput is greater than that of most fixed blade, mixed flow impeller designs. The resultant smaller fan size, assists its installation in confined spaces.

Performance Data
Elta fan performance data is achieved through exhaustive testing in the Companys laboratory and provides an accurate and reliable record of the MFB series performance.
Testing has been performed for Type D installation category (fully ducted) to the following current standards. Aerodynamic Performance To ISO 5801 : 1997 (incorporating BS 848 Part 1:1997) Sound Performance To BS 848 Part 2 : 1985 on both Inlet and Outlet sides Pressure Values The ISO 5801 standard suggests that fan pressure should be shown as total or stagnation values, with static pressure illustrated if required. At present, achieved static pressure is the more commonly used pressure for fans of this type, which are shown in the accompanying performance graphs. Should the fan total pressure be required, the formula below should be used. The applicable fan dynamic (velocity) pressure Pd, based on the fan duct area, is shown on each performance curve. Fan Total Pressure (Pa) = Fan Static Pressure (Pa) + FAN Dynamic Pressure (Pd)
How to read the performance data

Performance data explanation notes are shown on the specimen data sheet opposite. The series of MFB performance curves illustrate the achieved performance of the 9 fan sizes at the stated rotational speeds. Depending on the electrical supply and motor type chosen, the operating speed may vary slightly from these nominal chosen speeds. The actual speeds and motor selection data for the applicable blade setting are shown on pages 19 to 22 Should speed correction be required, then the following relationships may be used. Airflow: Power: Sound: varies proportionally to the speed ratio varies proportionally to the (speed ratio)3 will vary by 1dB for approximately 5% change in speed and 2.5 dB for a 10% change.
Pressure: varies proportionally to the (speed ratio)2

The absorbed impeller power corresponding to the selected blade angle setting (1 to 5).
For the MFB 350 at 1440 rpm as shown, a fan selection using blade setting 5 is appropriate with an absorbed power at duty condition of 0.058 kW (peak power 0.060kW). Refer to motor selection pages for electrical data, running speed, etc, for the chosen motor type. Make any selection adjustment for speed if required. The application Pd dynamic pressure can be seen to be 4 Pa. Overall Sound Power Level on the outlet side of the fan can be interpolated as 71 dBW. The inlet sound level and the applicable spectrum reductions (for operation below the contour line) may be obtained from the sound data table. The overall outlet side dBA comparative figure is 71 27 = 44 dBA at 3 metres.

Electrical Performance Data
TEFC design, IP55 enclosure and Class F insulation. for use at the specified voltage, either 220 or 240 Volts.
Performance Data
Electric motors incorporated within Multiflow MFB fan units are of metric pad mounted
Single speed - Single phase motors are of Class B temperature rise and are suitable
Three phase motors are to Class B temperature rise and are suitable for use over the supply voltage range of 380 to 415 Volts, within the range indicated on page 20.
Variable speed - A range of suitable single phase variable speed controllable motors, incorporating high resistance rotors, is available. These operate within Class F temperature rise and are recommended by Elta for variable speed requirements, especially under electronic speed control. The suitability of using fixed speed single phase motors with electronic speed control cannot be guaranteed by Elta, but are known to be used in some circumstances. For motors not incorporating high resistance rotors, the use of stepped transformers or inverter speed control is recommended. Note: Elta can only guarantee variable speed fan units if used in conjunction with Elta speed controllers, see page 20.
Other requirements - Other normal motor requirements, eg two speed operation, inclusion of thermistors or heaters etc, can be included upon request.
Motor specification - Output to BS 5000 Part 10, performance to BS 4999 Part 101 and IEC 34-1, dimensions to BS 4999 Part 141 and IEC 72 and other British Standard and IEC requirements.

Silencers
Baffle type silencers have been developed for use with MFB fan units to give good attenuation whilst minimising the resultant airside pressure loss. The perforated steel baffles contain sound absorbent mineral wool of 45Kg/m3 density, having a glass tissue facing. Radiused ends are provided. Silencer overall length includes a 300mm long plenum section which should be fitted to the fan flange when silencers/fans are close coupled. This aids the airflow entering/exiting the fan unit and minimises flow disturbance and losses. Alternative silencer lengths are available to special order, together with Melinex lining to baffles. The illustrated insertion losses will vary under such cases - please consult Elta Fans. Material and Finish: Galvanised sheet steel casing and perforated steel baffle. Mineral wool infill to all baffles.

Dynamic Insertion Loss & Attenuation

The silencer attenuation is defined as the dynamic insertion loss. The values tabled represent the difference between the sound power level of the fan and silencer combination with that of the fan alone. The dynamic insertion losses are the attenuations possible under ideal conditions. The achieved attenuation can vary if the air velocity distribution within the silencer is changed due to disturbances caused by adjacent system components. To determine the sound level of a fan fitted with a silencer obtain the sound power levels of the MFB fan from the applicable performance curve and subtract the dynamic insertion losses at centre frequencies. The resultant figures are then applicable for ducted fan installations.

General Specification Multiflow Range of MFB Fans

The Multiflow MFB range of adjustable pitch Mixed Flow Fan units are ideally suited for installation within ductwork. A full range of accessories, including silencers are also available. Casings are manufactured in pregalvanised sheet steel suitably stiffened. They have ductmate flange connections each end. Guide vanes/motor support arms are of steel sheet construction, aerodynamic in profile and hot dipped galvanised after manufacture. Inlet spinning is formed from steel sheet and painted. The MFB adjustable pitch Mixed Flow impeller has its blade angle factory set to meet the required duty. The construction utilises aluminium spinnings and pressings together with a steel hub assembly. Impellers are paint finished in yellow epoxy powder to RAL 1021. Electric Motors - Metric pad mounted motors to IP55 are centrally located to the guide vanes and sized to meet the known customer requirements. See pages 19 to 22 for full options and associated electrical data. Electrical Connections - All units have their motors pre-wired to external casing Quality - Design and manufacture are quality controlled under the Companys ISO 9001 certification. terminal enclosures (IP55) for customer connection.
CE Declarations - Fan units are CE marked to conform to the Machinery Directive 89/392/EEC Annex IIA and amendments. They also meet the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC and Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (89/336/EEC) and subsequent amendments.
