Summary

In order to make a statement about the sensible use of energy-saving fans, it must first be explained what energy-saving fans are. Are they just the most recent fan manufacturer's developments with EC motors or owlet blades? These technical developments improve the efficiency of the motor and the blades. The amount of efficiency improvement depends on the state of technology with which they are compared. It is not just a case of having an EC motor or a high-tech blade, but the choice of the best fan and operating method also has a considerable influence on the energy cost. The fan type and the operating method thereof must be optimized before additional energy costs can be saved using high-tech motor and blade solutions. The first part of the lecture deals with the fan technology so that you can evaluate whether the fan saves energy. The second part shows examples of the optimum choice of fan energy-optimised operation thereof.
