Industrial Airpole Pedestal Fan Manufacturers

Airpole Pedestal Fan Manufacturer and Supplier

Shanghai Aipu Fans Co., Ltd. designs and manufactures the Airpole Pedestal Fan range for commercial, industrial, and public spaces that need powerful yet quiet air movement without ceiling mounting. As a China-based manufacturer with an 8,000 m² production base, we combine PMSM motor technology, IP55-rated weatherproofing, and adjustable height and oscillation to deliver a floor-standing HVLS solution that performs reliably in demanding environments.

Our Airpole series includes models from 9 to 13 feet in diameter, with airflow up to 3,600 m³/min and speeds as low as 82 rpm. These fans are built for warehouses, airports, coffee shops, outdoor plazas, and manufacturing plants where structural constraints or open layouts make ceiling fans impractical. We supply both standard configurations and OEM/ODM customizations, with blade colors, motor power, and control options tailored to your project.

Product Range and Positioning

We offer four primary models in the Airpole Pedestal Fan category, each matched to a specific coverage area and application. The table below summarizes the available sizes and key specifications:

Each model is available with 5 or 6 blades, and blade color can be customized (silver, yellow, red, blue, black, etc.). The 12-foot 360-degree rotating pole base model adds full rotation for comprehensive air distribution, while the 11-foot version can include an integrated light kit for dual-purpose illumination.

Application Fit and Process Integration

Airpole fans are designed for spaces where ceiling mounting is not possible or where mobility is required. Typical installations include:

• Warehouses and distribution centers: Improve air circulation to preserve inventory and maintain worker comfort.
• Airports and transit hubs: Quiet, draft-free airflow in waiting lounges and boarding gates.
• Outdoor venues: IP55-rated housing withstands rain and dust for plazas, parks, and terraces.
• Manufacturing plants: Regulate temperature and humidity for process consistency.
• Sports facilities and gymnasiums: Even air distribution without obstructing sightlines.
• Retail and hospitality: Enhance customer comfort in lobbies, corridors, and coffee shops.

Because these fans operate at low speeds (82–140 rpm), they generate a large, gentle airflow that mimics natural breeze, reducing the perceived temperature by 5–8°C without the noise and turbulence of high-speed fans. This makes them suitable for occupied spaces where employee productivity and customer experience matter.

Engineering and Motor Technology

At the core of every Airpole fan is a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) that delivers nearly double the efficiency of induction or belt-driven motors. The brushless DC design reduces friction and energy loss, while 100% passive cooling keeps operating temperatures low for extended life. We pair this motor with an imported Denmark Danfoss inverter that provides:

• IP55 protection level, passing UL, EMC, and RoHS certificates.
• Overload, over-current, and emergency cut-off protection.
• Built-in RF interference filter and brake chopper for stable operation.

The fan blades are made from an aluminum alloy with a natural anti-corrosion treatment, followed by powder spraying cured at nearly 200°C to form a 70±5 µm film. This finish is smooth, easy to clean, and available in custom colors. The alloy composition (Al, Cu, Mg, Zn) is optimized to improve yield and tensile strength, ensuring blades withstand continuous industrial use.

Configuration Options and Customization

We understand that each facility has unique requirements. Our Airpole fans can be configured in several ways:

• Blade count: Choose 5 or 6 blades to balance airflow and noise.
• Blade color: Match your brand or environment with custom powder-coated finishes.
• Rotation: Select fixed oscillation or 360-degree continuous rotation for full coverage.
• Lighting: Add an integrated LED light kit for dual-purpose illumination (available on 11-foot model).
• Control system: Adjustable speed from 0 to maximum rpm, with options for remote or wall-mounted controls.

For OEM projects, we can modify the pole height, base design, motor power, and voltage (220V, 50/60Hz) to match your specifications. Our engineering team works with you from concept to production, ensuring the final product integrates seamlessly with your existing systems.

Quality Assurance and Testing

Every Airpole fan undergoes rigorous testing before shipment. We follow CE and ISO 9001 guidelines, conducting full-link inspections that include:

• Durability tests for long-term operation under load.
• Noise level measurements to confirm low acoustic output.
• Waterproof and dust resistance verification to meet IP55 rating.
• Electrical safety checks for overload and short-circuit protection.

Our production base is equipped with high-precision automatic machines, including machining, cutting, welding, and testing centers. This automation ensures consistent quality and cost-effectiveness, allowing us to offer competitive pricing without compromising reliability.

Installation, Maintenance, and Support

Airpole fans are designed for easy installation and low maintenance. The floor-standing base provides stability without the need for structural reinforcement, and the height-adjustable pole allows you to position the airflow at the optimal level. Detachable parts simplify cleaning and servicing.

We provide comprehensive pre-sales, in-sales, and after-sales support:

• Pre-sales: Professional consulting and customized solutions based on your space dimensions and airflow requirements.
• In-sales: Timely logistics tracking and installation guidance.
• After-sales: 3-year whole-machine warranty and 24-hour technical support.

We also offer documentation including installation manuals, wiring diagrams, and maintenance schedules. For international orders, we handle export packaging to protect the fan during transit and provide delivery scope details in the proposal.

Information We Use to Configure Your Solution

To prepare an accurate quotation and technical proposal, we need the following project information from you:

With this data, we can recommend the right model, provide a layout sketch, and confirm performance expectations. For complex projects, we can also arrange a site visit or virtual consultation to refine the solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an Airpole Pedestal Fan and a ceiling-mounted HVLS fan?

Airpole fans are floor-standing units that do not require ceiling reinforcement, making them ideal for spaces with open roofs, skylights, or where overhead mounting is not feasible. They offer the same large-volume, low-speed airflow as ceiling fans but with the flexibility to be moved or repositioned.

Can the Airpole fan be used outdoors?

Yes, our Airpole fans have an IP55 rating, meaning they are protected against dust and water jets. This makes them suitable for outdoor plazas, park rest zones, and covered terraces. However, we recommend providing some overhead shelter for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

How much energy does an Airpole fan consume compared to traditional fans?

Our PMSM motor technology is nearly twice as efficient as induction motors. For example, the ALF-36 model consumes only 350W while moving up to 3,600 m³/min, which is significantly less energy than multiple high-speed fans required to achieve similar coverage.

What customization options are available for OEM orders?

We offer customization of blade color, blade count, pole height, motor power, voltage, and control systems. We can also add features like integrated lighting or special coatings for corrosive environments. OEM branding on the fan body is supported.

What is the warranty and after-sales support?

We provide a 3-year whole-machine warranty and 24-hour technical support. Our team assists with installation guidance, troubleshooting, and spare parts supply. For international customers, we can coordinate with local agents or provide remote diagnostics.
