Old style ceiling fans or a simple tube design generally will not offer adequate throw for destratification. Airius Air Pear Fans feature a unique nozzle design and patented stator system to ensure that a column of air is delivered from ceiling to floor — where we live and work. With any axial fan, there exists a radial component to the air flow causing it to spread laterally and lose velocity when leaving the nozzle. Airius’ patented fixed blade stator sits below the fan to transfer this rotational energy into linear motion exiting the nozzle. Having the airflow energy in line with the fan axis promotes a tight air column and maximizes the throw. In addition to the stator, the slightly tapered nozzle increases the exit speed and allows for the air throw to be maximized even further. If you are looking for Thermal destratification, Airius is the name.

The Suspended Ceiling Series drops into a standard 2-foot by 2-foot acoustic ceiling tile. After wiring the electrical, the entire fan unit can be installed quickly and easily. A dome over the top of the fan ensures that air below the plenum is continuously mixed. Additional low voltage wiring may need to be installed for control of an EC motor or eliminated with a wireless control option.

Our standard AC motors are a great option to keep things simple. Controls for these types of motors are installed in-line with the power circuit feeding the fans. Several control types are available, from simple wall mounted controls to our Smart TRIAC that can adjust speed using: dip switches for fixed speed, 2-20mA current, 0-10VDC, or high and low temperature sensors that adjust fan speed based on the temperature difference. Please see the following information sheets for specific details.

Our premium EC motors, made by ebm-papst®, are a great option for maximum efficiency and controllability. EC fans maintain higher efficiency across the entire speed range when compared to traditional AC motors. EC fans can be controlled through a direct 0-10VDC wired connection, using our Pearlink Wi-Fi based app, using our Delta-T controller, or integrated into an existing automation system over BACnet MS/TP.

Every Air Pear fan is supplied with a steel safety leash pre-installed. The safety leash acts as an additional restraint in the case of catastrophic failure of the main attachment point. Airius is the only small destratification fan manufacturer with this safety feature.

Suspended fans are available in two standard colors: Off white (Cool gray 2C) or black. Custom colors will be considered for large bulk purchases. Contact Airius for further details. If you need small quantities of fans with custom colors, look at our Designer Series fans.

An optional duct stub of 6, 8 or 10-inches can be installed into the fan dome. This allows conditioned air to be supplied to the fan and mixed into the room below. A great option for spaces at the end of a duct run that need a bit of assistance with mixing supply air and providing additional air movement.
