Canarm Hexa-Lite EC HVLS 24 Foot Blade Industrial Fan New - 6L24EC-230-1
Operating on a 1.35 HP EC motor, minimal power consumption is combined with impressive air volumes to create the highly efficient Hexa-Lite EC HVLS Fan.
During the heating season, the Hexa-Lite EC HVLS fan technology can destratify uneven temperatures that can be in excess of fifteen degrees from ceiling to floor. This results in significant energy savings since the heating system cycles less frequently.
What our Experts Think
-
Massive airflow for large industrial spaces
The Canarm Hexa‑Lite EC HVLS 24 Foot Blade Industrial Fan (6L24EC‑230‑1) is engineered to move huge volumes of air across up to ~45,000 sq ft, creating effective circulation in warehouses, factories, gyms, and large commercial facilities.
-
Energy‑efficient cooling and destratification
Powered by a 1.35 HP EC motor with built‑in VFD, it uses minimal power while creating a gentle, refreshing airflow that can lower perceived temperature and reduce cooling costs. In cooler months it destratifies heat, balancing floor‑to‑ceiling temperatures and reducing HVAC cycling.
-
High‑performance blade design
Six extruded anodized E420 aluminum airfoils paired with wingtip fences direct airflow downward efficiently — delivering comfortable ventilation without high speeds or noise.
-
Quiet, low‑maintenance operation
A direct drive, IP65‑rated EC motor with onboard VFD ensures smooth, quiet operation with fewer moving parts and less maintenance compared to geared systems.
-
Durable, industrial‑ready construction
Built with powder‑coated steel and anodized aluminum components, this fan resists rust and corrosion — ideal for cold, damp, or high‑usage environments.
Q&A
Q: What size and type of fan is the Canarm Hexa‑Lite EC 6L24EC‑230‑1?
A: It’s a 24 ft diameter HVLS (High Volume Low Speed) industrial ceiling fan built to move large volumes of air in big industrial, commercial, or warehouse spaces.
Q: What motor powers this fan?
A: The fan uses a 1.35 HP EC (electronically commutated) motor with a direct drive design for quiet, efficient airflow with minimal power use.
Q: What airflow performance can be expected?
A: A 24 ft Hexa‑Lite EC fan can cover up to 45,000 + sq ft and influence air movement out to around 240 ft in diameter, delivering consistent airflow for large areas.
Q: How does it improve comfort and energy usage?
A: It promotes evaporative cooling (feels 3–4 °F cooler) and reduces temperature stratification in winter, cutting heating cycles and costs.
Q: How is noise and maintenance performance?
A: The direct drive EC system runs quietly and offers minimal maintenance requirements compared to traditional HVLS fans.
Q: What safety and standards compliance does it have?
A: Conforms to CSA Standard 22.2 #133 and UL507, ensuring safety and reliability in industrial settings.
Maintenance Tips
-
Regular dusting: Clean blades, motor housing, and grille every 1–3 months to prevent dust buildup that reduces airflow and efficiency.
-
Check blade balance: Inspect blades for dings or uneven dirt; rebalance if wobble or vibration occurs to protect bearings and motor.
-
Inspect mounting hardware: Tighten bolts, brackets, and hangers periodically to ensure safe, stable installation.
-
Lubricate as needed: Many EC motor HVLS fans are maintenance‑free for bearings, but follow the manufacturer’s guideline if specific lubrication points exist.
-
Electrical & wiring check: Verify power connections and controls (VFD/EC driver) for corrosion or looseness; secure and clean contact points.
-
Motor/driver ventilation: Keep the EC motor and driver enclosure free of dust and ensure adequate airflow to prevent overheating.
-
Test operation: Run the fan at each speed setting occasionally to ensure smooth, quiet performance with no abnormal noise.
-
Annual professional inspection: Have a qualified technician check structural components, electrical systems, and firmware/controls.
