AP Belt Drive Fans

AP's Basic Belt Drive fan includes shutter, heavy powder coated guard, all aluminum and stainless steel mounting hardware, and fiberglass housing with a lifetime warranty.

Fiberglass Props
AP props are carefully balanced to provide smooth and efficient operation. Constructed from a strong composite fiberglass blend, these props also provide a much longer life compared to plastic, steel, or cast aluminum props.

AP Shutters
AP also offers shutters standard on some fan models. See our Shutters page for more information.

Belt Tighteners
All belts stretch, the question is, who checks for slippage? Why spend big money on a high tech fan only to lose that efficiency months later to improperly tightened belts. All AP belt drive fans come standard with an automatic belt tightener. Less hassle and continued performance month after month.

Optional Discharge Cones
Optional discharge cones boosts fan output by as much as 15% while also increasing efficiencies. Made of durable fiberglass the 36" fan comes in one piece and the 50" model is in an easy to ship and assemble three pieces.

Drive Train
"Heavy-duty" best describes the AP belt fan drive train. 1" material drive shafts allow for larger cast iron pillow block bearings to be used resulting in a durable, long lasting piece of equipment. In addition, the large pulleys allow for longer belt life and smoother operation.

Fan Motors
Only 56 frame TEAO dual voltage motors are used in AP belt drive fans. These motors are specially designed to match the propellers and fan for optimal performance and efficiency.
