Fan’s breakthrough design delivers greater continuous horsepower

Listen to this article

AirVolution-D by MacroAir is powered by a revolutionary D-Drive System, featuring the world’s first compact electric motor capable of handling the consistent torque requirements of a 24-foot diameter HVLS fan. At the heart of AirVolution-D is a breakthrough in motor design delivering 50% greater continuous horsepower and 10% more airflow than current HVLS fans on the market. D-Drive eliminates the need for a massive gearbox, making it 45% lighter and eliminating numerous moving parts.

AirVolution-D is the lightest, quietest, smoothest, most reliable and most efficient HVLS fan line on the market today. Available in fan sizes from 6’ to 24’, it’s the perfect solution for small to extra-large spaces.

For the first time, MacroAir is offering a fan that is the ideal solution for smaller spaces such as hotels, restaurants, lobbies, offices, retailers and small businesses. It can be installed in as low as 12-foot ceiling heights and offers custom color options, blending into the aesthetic of virtually any space.

Six revolutionary features of the AirVolution-D:

1. Power
Among HVLS Fans, AirVolution-D has the highest fan efficiency; at 33 CP it delivers 50% greater continuous horsepower.

2. AirBrain processor
Inside AirVolution-D is a smart processor that acts as the brain behind the fan which can automatically adjust to different power sources and allow users to access real time performance analytics. The processor also has capabilities to be remotely updated as new software becomes available.

3. Highest efficiency
Even with a smaller profile, the D-Drive motor was specifically designed to perform longer and stronger. Moving air 50% more efficiently and generating more wind power at the same speed than the leading competitor, AirVolution-D uses 25% less energy, costing just pennies a day to operate.

4. D-Drive smart motor
AirVolution-D’s electric direct-drive motor uses a patented coil system that represents a breakthrough in torque management, heat dispersion and power consistency.

5. 45 percent lighter
By comparison to typical 24’ fans, AirVolution-D is 150 pounds lighter. By eliminating the gearbox, this incredible loss of weight reduces load-stress and results in a sleeker aesthetic.

6. 50,000-hour warranty
AirVolution-D fans are designed to perform longer than any HVLS fan on the market. Run it at any speed, in any environment, and if anything needs repair, MacroAir will fix it or replace it free within 50,000 hours of use—that’s more than 24 years in a typical installation. An industry first.
