Specifications for Xpelair Dunes Duo Twin XDRD Series
The XDRD series fans are designed with high efficiency, low noise, and forward-curved impellers housed in galvanized steel scrolls. The motor and impeller assemblies are balanced according to BS 5265 Part 1 1979 standards to G2.5. The fans are mounted on fan decks for easy removal.
Motors
The motors are totally enclosed, high efficiency, split-capacitor external rotor types with power factors better than 0.9. They can operate in ambient temperatures up to 50ºC and have sealed, maintenance-free ball bearings with a life expectancy of 50,000 hours. The motors include auto-resetting thermal contactors for overload protection and are insulated to Class F with an IP44 or IP54 enclosure.
Application and Features
The XDRD series is designed for roof installations where space and access are limited. They are suitable for environments with abrasive dust, coastal salt-water humidity, and high temperatures. These fans are ideal for applications requiring duty standby fans, such as kitchens, restaurants, hotels, and other commercial spaces.
Performance Data
Detailed performance data for various models (XDRD150, XDRD250/1, XDRD250/2, XDRD315, XDRD600/1, XDRD600/2) is provided, including airflow rates at different static pressures, nominal fan speeds, maximum electrical power, full load and starting currents, motor insulation class, IP rating, maximum operating temperature, and weight.
Sound Power Data
Sound power levels are provided for each model across different frequencies (63Hz to 8kHz) and overall dB(A) at 3 meters.
Controllers and Wiring Diagrams
The document describes the MAC-M manual duty sharing controller with auto changeover and the ACO automatic duty sharing controller. These controllers allow for manual or automatic selection of duty and standby fans, with indicators for power, run, and fail status.
Accessories
A range of accessories is listed, including inline duct bag filters, circular silencers, flexible connections, solid ducts, louvre shutters, and various grille options.
