Is the Explosion-Proof Fan an Exhaust Fan or a Supply Fan

Explosion-proof axial fans are designed for air supply, while explosion-proof centrifugal fans are utilized for exhaust purposes. These fans are equipped with explosion-proof functionality, making them suitable for use in specialized industries that require stringent safety measures. To operate effectively and safely in these hazardous environments, they must be paired with explosion-proof motors.
