Powering Through Maintenance Challenges — with Hartzell Air Movement
At a recycled energy power plant in the Northeast, rooftop ventilation had long been a bottleneck. The site’s exhaust fans, exposed to hot and dusty airstreams, demanded constant maintenance. Servicing them meant shutting down systems, dispatching extra labor crews, and navigating tight rooftop clearance, all of which impacted plant uptime and safety.
That changed with the introduction of Hartzell Air Movement’s engineered rooftop solutions.
The Equipment Upgrade
To meet the plant’s demanding environment and maintenance needs, two purpose-built fan systems were implemented:
🔧 Hartzell Series 48S Swingout Fans
These fans allow for safe, tool-free access to motors and impellers. Maintenance teams can now inspect and clean components in minutes, without dismantling ductwork or pulling motors from tight rooftop spots.
🔥 Hartzell Series 46 High-Temperature Fans
Designed to perform in high-heat, high-contaminant environments, these fans are ideal for energy recovery systems, where elevated exhaust temps are the norm.
Real Results for Real Demands
✔️ Cut Maintenance Time in Half
✔️ Improved Safety for Rooftop Crews
✔️ Increased Equipment Uptime
✔️ Longer Fan Life in Harsh Conditions
Why It Matters
Power plants depend on efficiency, not just in generation, but in operations. Hartzell’s rugged, low-maintenance fans help keep air systems reliable without slowing down output or putting staff at risk.
