Product categories: ventilation

Industries served: agricultural, commercial, horticultural, industrial, restaurant, golf

Profile: American Coolair celebrated its 80th year in 2008. The company has manufactured high

quality, versatile and economical high velocity ventilation systems for the poultry industry since its

founding. Designed with precise engineering and quality materials, the product line requires mini-

mum maintenance and saves farmers money. Today, American Coolair supplies ventilation products in

commercial, industrial, agricultural and horticultural markets throughout the world.

Background: In 1928, a father-son team in Jacksonville, Fla., founded the company, which has

grown to become a leading manufacturer of ventilation products. What began as a small factory

operation would, within the next few decades, flourish with the help of manufacturers representa-

tives and salesmen. Sales and markets for American Coolair fan systems increased rapidly.

Harry Graves Sr. was the third generation of the Graves family to manage American Coolair, and

the catalyst who built the company to its current status. By moving the company to a building with

110,000 sq. ft. of office and manufacturing space in the 1960s, he consolidated the business and

administration under one roof. Today, American Coolair manufactures in a modern 210,000 square

foot facility and ships around the world.

In the 1970s, American Coolairs product lines became more extensive, and the markets in which

they competed broadened to include agricultural and horticultural lines. As the company continues

to upgrade and replace manufacturing techniques and equipment, its customers continue to enjoy

extraordinary value at the best possible price.

Harry Graves Sr. secured American Coolairs future by teaching his children what he knew. Now,

Harry Jr., Robert B., and Sara have become the fourth generation leaders from the Graves family,

cementing the familys successful tradition.

POULTRY INDUSTRY PRODUCTSAmerican Coolair has several fan products available to meet the demanding environmental and

economic constraints of poultry producers. To provide the best service possible, American

Coolair has included many standard features on its fans. The companys designs:

Minimize radial loading by placing the drive load in the same plane as the bearings. This unique

design delivers five times the life for bearings, a fans most critical component.

Use larger drives to ensure longer belt life.

Incorporate a circular support in the hub that increases blade assembly rigidity and decreases

the possibility of vibration.

Use an electrostatically applied thermosetting epoxy coating superior to liquid paint that

is baked on rather than air-dried.

Each fan also bears the Air Movement and Control Association International (AMCA) seal,

which denotes that products have been tested and rated in conformance with AMCA test

standards and rating requirements.

Inlet Damper Remodel KitInlet Damper Remodel Kit allows for the replacement of existing shut-

ters on any Coolair fan in the field with minimum effort. The damper

consists of four vertical doors, which open automatically when the fan is

in use. A nearly unobstructed path is provided for the air stream.

When the fan is not running, the damper doors close and a magnetic seal

ensures a tight closure. In addition, a foam rubber gasket on the door

frame minimizes leakage. When it is time for fan cleaning or maintenance,

the damper does not need to be removed. By opening the large damper

doors, ample access to the fan is provided.

Elliptical Damper Door Cone

The new Elliptical Damper Door Cone units maximize airflow in poultry houses without additional

construction cost. By holding the maximum width of the cone to 60 inches, the new design allows

the customer to mount the fans on five-foot center distances, while the vertical diameter of the

cone remains the standard 67-3/8 inches. The damper doors, located within the cone, open fully

when the fan is energized to provide a virtually unobstructed path for the airflow.

The 60-inch wide Elliptical Damper Door Cone is available for all American Coolair 52-inch fans, and

can be used as part of new building construction, or as retrofit replacements for fan units mounted

on five-foot center distances.

NBF60

The new NBF60 fan offers the performance and durability needed

in an agricultural building ventilator. With its 60-inch diameter

die-formed steel blades, the NBF60, using a 1.5-horsepower engine,

provides 18 percent more air flow than a 52-inch fan with the same

horsepower and is 26 percent more energy efficient. It is available in

slope wall housing, with or without a discharge cone, or as an air

circulator. The NBF60 is also offered in 2-horsepower and 3-horse-

power three-phase models which are even more efficient.

It features the largest bearings in the industry and with American Coolairs captured bearing

arrangement this allows the blade hub to serve as the driven sheave. Placing the belt load

directly over the bearings gives the greatest bearing life in the industry. The NBF60 uses a

10-gauge steel welded angle-frame construction.

Inlet Damper

Available for all American Coolair size 48-inch and 52-inch wall fanunits, the inlet damper increases efficiency and convenience. The damper

consists of four vertical doors, which open automatically when the fan

is energized. When the fan is not in use, the doors seal magnetically, and

a foam rubber gasket on the door frame minimizes leakage.

American Coolairs unique damper design allows for something that

ordinary shutters and dampers dont insulation. Typically thin aluminum

shutters dont provide adequate insulation from cold air. When fitted with optional insulation,

the American Coolair damper provides an air barrier and a heat barrier without affecting the

aerodynamic performance of the fan package.

FGBCB 52 Fan Features five-year fan warranty

The fiberglass FGBCB 52 fan features American Coolairs new 11.6

inch disk and a cast aluminum blade assembly. This improved design

allows for more belt on the disk, which reduces the belt tension

needed to drive the blade assembly. This results in less bearing load

and longer motor life. The innovative drive assembly allows V-belt

power to be transmitted directly through the bearings, which results

in more economical operation and increased bearing life. The cast

blade assembly improves performance and doesnt lose performance

over time like fiberglass blades. Specially formed structural components provide for a sturdy,

yet aerodynamic support package.

NBCB 52 Fan with damper door cone unit Features

five-year fan warranty

American Coolairs improved NBCB 52 fan features a damper door

cone unit, which significantly reduces maintenance time. The discharge

doors are a sturdy and aerodynamic alternative to the common inlet

shutter. The NBCB fan has cast aluminum blades and features American

Coolairs new 11.6 inch disk increases belt life. The cast blade is ideal

for humid climates, because it resists corrosion. The auto belt tensioner

ensures continuous fan operation at full capacity.

NEFB 52 Fan

The galvanized NEFB fan, popular with international customers

because it can be shipped unassembled to minimize shipping costs,

offers the latest technology in farm-building ventilation. It features

American Coolairs new 11.6 inch disk. Allowing for more belt on

the disk, the larger disk results in less motor stress and longer fan

life. The fan comes in three blade sizes 36 inch, 48 inch or 52 inch.

The 52-inch blade is the newest addition to the NEF family and

provides up to 10 percent more air flow than the smaller sizes.

IPE2012

The blade design was precisely engineered to provide better performance and efficiency. The

innovative drive assembly applies power through V-belts directly to the propeller, and blade load

is concentrated directly over the bearings. The NEF fans are equipped with totally enclosed

resilient-based, ball bearing 1/2 H.P. or 1 H.P. motors and can be operated with or without a

discharge cone and guard.

Open-top Evaporative Cooling System

The open-top system is easy to maintain and saves farmers

time, because, in the past, they had to remove the tops to

thoroughly clean the units. The system offers the latest evapo-

rative cooling technology to counter periods of extreme tem-

perature affecting in-house environments. It achieves its cool-

ing effect by pulling large amounts of air through water-satu-

rated evaporative cooling pads and is shipped with either

Glacier-Cor or Kuul pads.

Suited for all geographic locations, the open-top unit, used in

conjunction with fans, can reduce temperatures 10 to 25degrees and provides the greatest economic benefit to growers in areas where temperatures

remain high for extended periods of time. The open-top design is available for both aluminum

and PVC cooling systems.

NCF Fan

The NCF fan provides efficient ventilation performance for

poultry houses, while offering significant savings to farmers. It

is available in 36-inch, 48-inch, 52-inch and 54-inch blade sizes.

In terms of cubic feet of air per minute per dollar invested,

the NCF52s additional blade span provides up to 10 percent

more air than the NCFA48. With a cone, the fan can provideup to 20 percent more air. The NCF52 fits in the same open-

ing as the 48-inch fan, making it easy to upgrade. The high-

quality blade assembly construction assures years of quiet,

trouble-free service.

American Coolair Offers Inlet Damper Remodel Kit

Can be retrofitted to any Coolair fan

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Jan. 24, 2012) American Coolair has developed an Inlet

Damper Remodel Kit that replaces shutters with inlet damper doors.

The American Coolair Inlet Damper Remodel Kit allows for the replacement of existing

shutters on any Coolair fan in the field with minimum effort.

We can retrofit any American Coolair fan with a new inlet damper, Sales Manager Mark Fales

said. The inlet damper door makes your fan more efficient than old-fashioned shutters. In addi-

tion, keeping shutters clean is essential. The design of the inlet damper makes maintenance much

easier. The doors on the inlet damper are vertical so they do not collect dust like shutters.

The damper consists of four vertical doors, which open automatically when the fan is in use.

A nearly unobstructed path is provided for the air stream.

When the fan is not running, the damper doors close and a magnetic seal ensures a tight

closure. In addition, a foam rubber gasket on the door frame minimizes leakage.

When it is time for fan cleaning or maintenance, the damper does not need to be removed.

By opening the large damper doors, ample access to the fan is provided.

cooling systems for the poultry, swine, dairy, greenhouse and golf industries. For more informa-

tion, call 904-389-3646, write P.O. Box 2300, Jacksonville, FL 32203, or e-mail: [email protected].

American Coolair Develops NBC 54 Fan for Farm

BuildingsNew fan provides more airflow and is energy efficient

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Jan. 24, 2012) American Coolair is producing a 54-inch

version of its NBC fan for farm buildings.

The American Coolair NBC54 provides maximum airflow needed to ventilate poultry buildings.

The NBC54 features all-galvanized steel construction for the ideal blend of strength and corrosion

resistance. The sturdy cross-frame drive support design ensures years of trouble-free operation.

The NBC54 is our most energy efficient fan yet, American Coolair Sales Manager Mark Fales

said. It has been engineered to meet large volume ventilation needs while keeping energy costs

at a minimum.

POULTRY INDUSTRY PRODUCTS

Easyclean Module

The Easyclean Modules framework is made of galvanized steel and designed

as a sealed structure without galvanizing holes. The new roof is a flat

surface folded over the top of the tubing which provides excellent access

for cleaning and removal of all debris. The Easyclean Module provides

the advantages of stainless steel at a much lower cost. It is completely

compatible with Easyload factory handling systems, controlled atmosphere

stunning and Easyload catching systems.

Hi Cube Drawers

Anglia Autoflows new Hi Cube drawers are 50 percent larger than previous drawers and 30 mm

taller, which allow companies to handle more birds and potentially run their lines at higher speeds

because of the increase in birds ready for processing. The drawers come five high and two wide

and can be loaded from the bottom, pulling an empty drawer over the top of a full drawer. The

added height complies with European legislation for broiler transportation.

Controlled Atmosphere Stunner

The Controlled Atmosphere Stunner uses controlled, low levels of Co2 until the birds lose

consciousness. This slow calm process relieves any stress on the birds. The CAS leads to

improved product quality because the birds are not damaged during shackling. There is

also reduced wing damage and hemorrhaging in the meat. The CAS is safe for workers and

working conditions are greatly improved because handlers are not shackling live birds in dark

areas and are working in a brighter, more comfortable environment.

Turkey Crate

The Anglia Autoflow Turkey Crate is unique from other turkey crates because it can be loaded

to or unloaded from the truck by forklift. The Turkey Crate is designed to work easily with thecompanys gas stunning system. And like all Anglia Autoflow handling systems, the Turkey Crate

is designed for easy cleaning between loads.

Spent Hen Delivery Dolly & Drawer

The Spent Hen Delivery Dolly & Drawer are used during collection of spent hens at the end

of the layer cycle for delivery to rendering plants. The dolly and drawer are designed to make

its easy for workers to move between the rows of cages to collect the spent hens.

Anglia Autoflow N.A. Introduces Easyclean ModulesNew module features improved design for cleaning

WOODSTOCK, Ga. (Jan. 24, 2012) Anglia Autoflow N.A. is introducing Easyclean

Modules for live bird handling to the Americas.

The Easyclean Modules framework is a galvanized steel, sealed structure without any open

Easyclean Module has the one solid piece over the tubing. It is much easier to clean.

It is completely compatible and interchangeable with existing Easyload factory handling systems

and modules, controlled atmosphere stunning and Easyload catching systems. The Easyclean

module can also be supplied in stainless steel if desired.

Since 1969, Anglia Autoflow has offered innovative products for the poultry and food processing

Plasson Feeding Systems

Diversified Imports Plasson Feeding System provides optimum performance

from the first day to maturity offering maximum availability of feed at all

times. Results in some U.S. houses show that the Plasson Feeder delivereda heavier bird with the same feed conversion.

The design of the pan, without grids, allows birds to easily reach the feed

even during the first days. The special design of the pan also prevents feed

waste when the birds are scratching.

A user-friendly system, the Plasson Feeder requires one adjustment at the starting phase to

ensure continuous feed supply at the correct level. The exclusive pan-adjustment system requires

no additional adjustments, making it very simple to operate. It also allows for line-height adaptation

in accordance with the birds age. Ensuring a constant flow of fresh feed, the cone design prevents

residue accumulation.

The system is easy to handle and clean. The cone can be removed from the bottom of the feeder,

allowing collection of unused feed and thorough cleaning after each flock.

Constructed of high impact plastic, the rugged feeding pans are resistant to strong detergents and

disinfectants. The steel parts are galvanized, which makes them resistant to corrosion and rust.

Plasson Nipple Drinker Systems

Plasson nipple drinker systems allow for optimum performance with flow rates ranging from

1.8 to 2.8 gallons per hour per nipple at 20" of pressure. With specific expertise for excessively

hot climates, Plasson designs nipple systems to deliver an optimal water supply that assists

growers in meeting market demands for heavy weight broilers of eight pounds or more. EveryPlasson nipple undergoes rigorous computerized quality testing. Using a simple design with only

two high quality moving parts helps ensure a leak-proof system.

Plasson Chick Start

The Plasson Chick Start has strong and robust construction making it a long life product. The

larger crown and sleeve allows it to hold more feed while the larger slots allow more feed on

the feeder boards. A floating or locking crown feature is also available. The chick start fits any

type of feeder pipe and is very user friendly with no small nuts or bolts to get lost. When not

in use it swings from side to side for easy storage.

Plasson Super Easy StartAfter many tests, we have reached the optimum for turkey pullets with the Super Easy Start.

It will accommodate a day old turkey and supply plenty of water as the pullets grow and will

Diversified Imports DI Bird Removal System

Features Mortality CounterSystem reduces flock exposure to dead birds

EATONTOWN, N.J. (Jan. 24, 2012) Diversified Imports has developed the

DI Bird Removal System with a mortality logging feature.

The DI Bird Removal System automatically counts dead birds as it is removing them from

the house. The data is output to an external control unit for logging of dead bird totals.

The system comes in eight, 10 and 12 foot sections and can be adjusted for height as the

birds grow. It quickly removes dead birds reducing the flocks exposure to them and reducing

contamination.

With the mortality logging and easy adjustment, the DI Bird Removal System reduces the

number of employees needed to cull dead birds and makes the process less strenuous on

the employees.

The Foodmate (FM) Frame Cut-Up System, which requires

minimum installation time, offers superior cutting accuracy

at higher line speeds. It provides accurate cuts on up to6,000 birds per hour. Frame Cut-Up systems can be usedfor food service and fast food cutting applications as well

as retail and bulk cut-up applications. The system is versatileenough that the individual modules can be placed in different places on the cut-up line. The stainless-steel design makes clean up easy. The FM Cut-Up Frame is a self-contained, easy to install, andflexible cut-up system. Durability and practicality are two of the main design considerations for

this system. Prior to shipping, all lines are fully tested. The modular construction allows for fullflexibility which means the layout of the system can be changed at any time. Cutting modulesmay be added and the length of the system can be changed. Minimum installation time required.
