INTRODUCING THE HURRICANE TURBINE VENTILATOR

The installation of Hurricane Turbine Roof Ventilators will provide an efficient and cost effective systems of natural ventilation. Designed in Australia for a harsh environment, the Hurricane is suited for industrial, commercial and community buildings. It has also passed the requirements of the low speed Dynamic Rain Penetration Test (3 l/m at 57.4 km/hr)


HURRICANE TURBINE VENTILATORS IMPROVE THE WORKING ENVIRONMENT


The wind - driven Hurricane ventilator exhausts hot, stale air from buildings and allows it to be replaced at low level with fresh air at ambient temperature. The result, naturally, is a much more pleasant working environment. The hurricane has other benefits too.

It prevents condensation by exhausting moist air. And, in cases of fire, it plays a safety role by exhausting smoke and fumes from the building.


THE HURRICANE TURBINE VENTILATOR OFFERS
  • - All aluminium construction
  • - A varipitch base that suits all roof slopes to 45° or ridge mounting base available.
  • - The Tandaco prepacked double row ball bearing system.
  • - Vertical vanes for improved starting torque.

THE UNIQUE TANDACO BEARING SYSTEM

The Hurricane incorporates the Tandaco double row heavy duty ball bearing system manufactured to perform for a lifetime It is secured into a reinforced bearing holder with variable length buttresses designed to stabilise the turbine at all wind speeds. The bearing is completely isolated from corrosive environmental conditions by its location between the dome and top diaphragm . The Tandaco bearings is a precision ground spindle bearing with a double row ball bearing cage.


THE HURRICANE'S VERTICAL VANES

As well as exhausting warm and stale air, ventilators must be weather proof which imposes influences on design that can be detrimental to their performance . Vertical Vane design has distinct benefits over spherical turbines.

They Provide :

  • ● Improved torque at low wind speed.
  • ● Excellent protection against rain.
  • ● Large exhaust opening.
  • ● Positive locking to turbine ring.
  • ● Greater "sail" area to drive the turbine.
