Fan AMCA Classification

Fan classification established by AMCA.

AMCA - Air Movement and Control Association International fan-class standards are established to simplify the specification of fans. AMCA fan-class standards are based on fan horsepower required per square foot of outlet area representing the structural requirements imposed on a fan for a given set of operating conditions.

AMCA class limits for a double-width airfoil centrifugal fan:

AMCA

AMCA Fan Classes I II III - Static Pressure vs. Outlet Vleocity - Example

A fan working with static pressure 4.5 in W.G. and outlet velocity 3500 ft/min is within AMCA Fan Class II.
