Text Box: CatafanWest Inc. Circulating Air Fans for the Oil and Gas Industry catafan@platinum.ca Text Box: Catafan In small building structures using radiant heaters, the forces of natural convection are so weak that wide temperature differences are the rule rather than the exception. ‘Cold spots’ followed by ice build-up are often the result, sometimes leading to a costly forced outage and loss of production. The Catafan is specifically designed to enhance performance of catalytic radiant heaters. It is powered by thermoelectrics and does not require an external power source. The Catafan improves heat distribution and uniformity within a space through forced convection. Text Box: The Catafan is designed to augment the performance of radiant heaters. Several beneficial effects are immediately noticeable. Of critical importance, the heat is distributed more uniformly, and delta T’s throughout the space are drastically reduced. Cold spots located along the floor or near leaky openings in the building structure are all but eliminated. Secondly, due to the homogenous nature of the mixing created by strong air movement, there is virtually no build-up of combustible or hazardous gas concentrations in the space. In fact, the Catafan with up to 400 cubic feet per minute of flow increases the fresh air and frequency of air changes. This lowers humidity within the space, and protects against ice build-up and freeze-ups.
