BFS-i10 Chemically Resistant MagLev Fan

Max flow 37 Nm3/min
Max diff. pressure 1150 Pa
Material Polypropylene (PP)
Gas Temperature 0° – 40° C

The Levitronix® BFS-i10 is designed for demanding applications in microelectronics manufacturing. Based on active magnetic levitation, the fan impeller is suspended and driven by the magnetic field of the motor. The wide gap ensures that there is no wear and therefore virtually no particle generation, making it the purest fan. As the impeller and stator are completely encapsulated, the fan is extremely resistant against aggressive media and is rated for use in explosive atmospheres.

System Benefits

The purest fan within semiconductor manufacturing (and beyond)!
Since there is no mechanical coupling between the impeller and the fan head casing, there is no wear and therefore virtually no particle generation.

The Purest Fan

Robust against aggressive gases
As the impeller and stator are completely encapsulated, the fan is extremely resistant against aggressive media.

Chemically Resistant

ATEX/ IECEx certified
The BFS-i10 is ATEX / IECEx certified and allows installation within an ATEX Zone 1 area for gas and ATEX Zone 21 for dust.

Rated for Use in Explosive Atmospheres

Up to 37 Nm3/min
With the impeller suspended, high speeds of 7400 rpm and thus a high flow can be achieved.

High Flow Capabilites

Reduced particle build-up
There is no mechanical bearing, thus the risk of a fan failure is substantially reduced.

Very Low Maintenance

Significantly reduced footprint and cabling effort
The motor and pump controller are integrated into the driver housing resulting in a significantly reduced footprint.

Integrated Electronics

From a few Ncm3/min up to max flow
The BFS-i10 has the highest turndown ratio by being able to accurately control and maintain the flow from a few Ncm3/min up to the maximum flow rate.

Highest Turndown Ratio

Increase your equipment uptime
There are no bearings to wear out or seals to breakdown, therefore equipment uptime increases which extends the life of your process equipment and also reduces maintenance costs.

Extremely Long Life Time

Create a feedback loop
Integrate a flow or pressure sensor into your system and create a feedback loop that will allow you to automatically maintain your desired process conditions.

Integrated Flow or Pressure Controller

Significantly smaller footprint than conventional fan
The BFS-i10 has a much smaller footprint than competitive fans of comparable hydraulic performance.

Small Footprint, Low Vibration
