Whether winter or summer, your livestock need to have maximum comfort levels to achieve optimum results. The AP line of specialty ventilation fans can aid in the bettering of otherwise marginal environments. The success of the modern facility depends on many
issues of which longevity, efficiency and performance of
the ventilation fans are a substantial part.
Built for Durability
From resilient & aerodynamic
fiberglass housings with
stainless steel mounting
hardware to heavy duty fan
guards with
a baked on
finish, AP
quality is
unsurpassed.
Built for Efficiency
We’re designing and building
fans year after year that are constantly
surpassing previous energy
consumption barriers with
even greater
airflow performance.
Built for Performance
Compare the enclosed performance
numbers and realize the
AP difference. We think you’ll
agree, AP fans surpass the
competition
in quality, efficiency,
and
performance.
Performer Series
Ventilation Fans
When the design team at AP
was given the challenge of
developing the Performer
series fan line, three points
were paramount. Performance,
efficiency, and longevity
all needed to be maintained
while keeping the price as
competitive as possible. You
will find the Performer Series
ventilation fans have not only
met, but exceeded those goals.
Performer Series Fans Technical Data
Performer Direct Drive
Unlike fans that use a smaller 48
frame motor, Performer direct drive
fans include the larger 56 frame
motor providing higher performance
while allowing for much cooler motor
temperatures on
variable speed
applications.
Performer direct
drive fan motors
include a full 3
year warranty.
Performer Belt Drive
Includes heavy duty 56 frame TEAO
motors, 1” drive train (allowing for
larger pillow block bearings and
enhanced longevity), automatic
belt tensioner, and large diameter
pulleys with
greasable
pillow block
bearings promote
greater
belt wrap and
extended life.
Performer Efficiency
Performance series fans outlast the
competition with a lifetime warranted,
carefully balanced, composite
fiberglass blend blade. Props are
designed to complement motor
efficiency and
produce the
highest possible
air output at the
lowest cost.
Competitor Series
Ventilation Fans
To be a player in today’s international
marketplace the modern
pork producer needs a competitive
edge. AP’s Competitor
series fans are the airflow champions.
Available in up to 54” models, harnessed with high efficiency
motors, and capable of
moving up to 30,000 cubic feet
of air per minute, Competitor
series fans are another powerful
tool to help you compete in
today’s world marketplace.
Competitor Series Fans Technical Data
Competitor Direct Drive
Direct drive Competitor series fans
feature high efficiency 1/3 HP motors
and durable, fiber reinforced
nylon propellers. A five bladed
propeller configuration provides
for optimal air
output while
producing
minimal operational
load on
the motor.
Competitor Belt Drive
Includes a high performance stainless
steel prop, 1.75 HP motor, 1” drive
train (allows for larger pillow block
bearings enhancing longevity), automatic
belt tensioner, and large diameter
pulleys with
greasable pillow
block bearings
promote greater
belt wrap and
extended life.
Competitor Pit Fans
Easy cleaning and low maintenance,
Competitor series variable speed pit
fans are ideal for minimum ventilation
needs and removing hazardous pit
gases. Choose from the Competitor
24” wall fan
combined with a
durable plastic pit
transition or an
economical one
piece pit unit with
external shutter.
Ventilation Fan Dimensions
Performer & Competitor Fan Performance
All fan performance numbers based on 60 Hz operation.
Performer and Competitor Fans Include:
A white PVC shutter with stainless steel rod hinges is standard equipment.
(Optional aluminum shutter available for 12”-36” fans with optional motor operator where required.)
All aluminum motor mounts constructed of heavy gauge materials.
All weather fan hoods for 14” to 24” fans save on costs and improve fanefficiency particularly in windy or cold weather conditions.
Wind deflector cones can be easily adapted to new or existing fans to improve the efficiency and performance of the total ventilation system.
Transit tubs are available to fit 8” to 24” fans. Transit tubs are ideal for applications where pump outs are not required.
Designed for the coldest weather, these insulated panels seal out even the most extreme winter conditions.
For Competitor and Performer 12” - 24” fans, the Competitor series pit transition is available where pump outs are required.
Made of durable fiberglass, AP’s optional discharge cones boosts fan output by as much as 15%.
Quick-Lock kits simplify cleaning and maintenance. Stainless steel pit transitions are also available for 14” to 24” fans where pump outs are not required and sidewall curtains are necessary.
The 14”-36” fiberglass cones are provided as a one piece unit and 50” & 54” in an easy to ship and assemble 3 or 4 piece units.
Specialty Fans
Whether winter or summer, your livestock need to have maximum comfort levels to achieve optimum results. AP’s selection of specialty fans can improve upon otherwise marginal environments. Be it high powered cooling, gentle circulation, or something in between, look to AP for a cost saving solution.
Basket Fans
Basket fans are available in 24” and 36” single speed and variable speed models. Basket fans feature heavy duty fan guards with baked on finish, high efficiency motors and propellers, and versatile mounting options that adapt to most applications.
Mini-Brute & Duct Fans
Ideal for low air requirements of small farrowing or nursery rooms, AP’s Mini-Brute and duct fans are a very cost effective solution. These fans deliver more precise amounts of air under windy conditions than larger fans. The duct will adapt to existing 10” PVC pump out ports. 10” PVC pipe extensions and elbows for duct fans are available.
Fiberglass Panel Fans
AP’s fiberglass panel fans feature durable & aerodynamic fiberglass housings with stainless steel mounting hardware that carries a limited lifetime warranty. Heavy duty fan guards with a baked on finish are available for front, rear or both sides ofthe fan. Motor mounts are constructed of all aluminum heavy gauge materials for a lighter weight unit and extended life. Carefully balanced, composite fiberglass blend propellers feature a lifetime warranty.
