[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ![Motor Nameplate Information](https://blog.nyblower.com/hs-fs/hubfs/motor%20info.jpg?width=287&name=motor%20info.jpg)It is relatively easy to calculate how much horsepower a fan is consuming in the field. Once calculated, this information can be used to identify the additional amount of flow and pressure the fan can produce within the limitations of the motor. To perform the calculations, we just need two field measurements which include the motors amperage draw and the line voltage (both can be measured with a voltage meter) and two items shown on the motor’s nameplate. This includes motor efficiency (often shown as “NEMA NOM. EFF.”) and power factor (shown as “PF”).   [Read More](https://blog.nyblower.com/calculating-phase-3-motor-horsepower) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.nyblower.com/calculating-phase-3-motor-horsepower#comments-listing) Topics: [Fan Performance](https://blog.nyblower.com/tag/fan-performance) ## [High Temperature Fans](https://blog.nyblower.com/high-temperature-fans) Posted by [Margaret Wood, Marketing Manager](https://blog.nyblower.com/author/margaret-wood-marketing-manager) on Mar 16, 2020 3:59:55 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![High Temperature Axial Plug Fans](https://blog.nyblower.com/hubfs/Capture-16.jpg)](https://blog.nyblower.com/high-temperature-fans) High temperature fans are used for a variety of purposes, typically ranging from 1200F-1800F (650C-980C). Some common industries are aluminum, steel, copper, carbon/charcoal, waste incineration, and others. Fan sizes typically range from 12"-84" (305mm-2130mm) but larger custom fans can be manufactured as well. The common fan types are centrifugal fans with forward curved or paddle style wheels, or axial fans with single-direction or reversing flow construction. Typical arrangements are 1 and 8, with materials ranging based on application demands. For instance, 316 SS can be used for fans up to 1500F, and other materials can withstand different temperature ranges. Some common accessories include insulation between alloy hot surfaces and mild steel cold surfaces, water-cooled shaft, heat slingers, and floating construction to accommodate thermal growth.

Students, teachers and counselors from area schools attended the event. Local manufacturers, including nyb, hosted tours for all interested participants. Several dozen students toured the nyb facilities. Glen Todd started with a brief introduction of what nyb fabricates and its' operations. James Smith and Jay Amberg conducted tours throughout the facility. While touring, students spent time with Teresa Tabbert learning the CNC machining operations (left picture). Ben Ruholl helped to explain the laser operations (right picture).Rob Werner educated them on robot operations, and Fred Finn and Mike Morrison demonstrated welding operations. Students were given a great opportunity to see manufacturing jobs in their hometown.

The course, taught by Raymond Goss, focuses on the welding, cutting, and fabrication of metal products to prepare students for a career in welding related fields.  Students learn the basics of Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) as well as Oxy-Acetylene cutting. They also have a small CNC plasma cutting table that the student learn how to program and operate. The class curriculum begins with the first few weeks of classroom work covering basic welding knowledge and safety, with the remainder of the year focusing on hands-on shop time.
