CUSTOM-ENGINEERED HIGH TEMPERATURE FANS & SEALED MOTORS

Custom equipment to optimize your process

In addition to IGE’s wide selection of standard high temperature fans, IGE has the capability to engineer & manufacture custom fan equipment to meet the needs of your unique application. IGE’s engineering team brings more than 100 years of high temperature fan design experience and critical learnings from over 100,000 installations world-wide to ensure your custom IGE equipment is truly optimized for your application.

Custom-engineered IGE high temperature fans can be designed for operation up to 2250°F (1230°C), delivering up to 250,000 CFM and 32” w.c. IGE has innovative shaft seals suitable for any severe duty application, including hazardous gas and vacuum applications.

Custom-engineered high temperature electric motors are also available from under 1/3 HP to over 150 HP. See our direct-drive sealed motors under IGE’s Kaybee Engineering brand name. 

Need to replace an existing fan unit but don’t have any documentation or drawings? No problem. See IGE’s rebuild process – our engineering team will assess your existing unit and provide options for rebuild and/or complete replacement.

Custom Fans FAQ

What temperature ranges can IGE's custom fans handle?

IGE custom-engineered high temperature fans can be designed for operation up to 2,250°F (1,230°C). If your application involves extreme heat, corrosive gases, or vacuum conditions, IGE's engineering team can spec a solution designed specifically for reliable 24/7/365 operation in your application.

What airflow and pressure capabilities are available for custom fans?

Custom IGE fans can deliver upwards of 250,000+ CFM and 62 inches of water column (w.c.) static pressure. If your application falls outside standard product ranges, our application engineering team will assess your requirements and design accordingly.

Can IGE design a custom fan for hazardous gas or vacuum applications?

Yes. IGE has innovative shaft seals suitable for any severe duty application, including hazardous gas and vacuum applications. This is one of the more technically demanding areas where IGE's 100+ years of proprietary shaft sealing technology development and cooling expertise is particularly valuable.

What if I need a replacement fan but don't have drawings or documentation for the existing unit?

That is not a problem. IGE's application engineering team will assess your existing unit and provide options for rebuild and/or complete replacement. You do not need documentation or original drawings to get started.

Are custom electric motors available as well as custom fans?

Yes. Custom-engineered water-cooled or air-cooled high temperature electric motors are available from under 1/3 HP to over 150 HP, available under IGE's Kaybee Engineering brand name. 

How long does it take to get a custom fan?

IGE's standard lead time is 6 weeks, with the flexibility to expedite when needed. Custom-engineered equipment follows a similar commitment to speed without sacrificing quality. 

What industries does IGE build custom fans for?

IGE's custom fan capabilities serve a wide range of high-temperature and demanding industrial environments, including commercial heat treating, aluminum, steel, glass, automotive, chemical and petrochemical, brick and ceramic, pulp and paper, and agricultural and industrial dryers. If your industry involves heat, airflow, or process-critical fan performance, IGE can engineer for it.

What information do I need to provide to get a custom fan quote?

The more context you can share, the better. Useful inputs include your operating temperature range, required airflow (CFM), static pressure requirements, gas composition if applicable, existing equipment specs or photos, and any site or installation constraints. IGE's application engineers will work with what you have and ask the right questions to fill in the gaps. You can start a conversation at igefans.com/contact or call (630) 968-4440.

Does the 2-year warranty apply to custom fans?

Yes. IGE provides a 2-year warranty on its equipment, double the industry standard. This warranty also applies to custom-engineered fans and rebuilds/repairs.

How do I get started?
