Ventilateur axial HXM 350 42023040

Application and Operating Characteristics

This device is dedicated to general ventilation in rooms where the air does not contain large quantities of dust or aggressive chemical substances. Thanks to its construction, it is suitable for garages, cellars, attics, as well as storage and commercial buildings. The HXM 350 axial fan (catalog no. 42023040) has been designed to allow installation in any position – on walls, ceilings, or floors – significantly facilitating adaptation to existing infrastructure.

A key element is the impeller made of aluminum sheet, which, combined with a housing stamped from galvanized steel, ensures durability while maintaining a low overall device weight (approx. 4.3 kg). The housing is coated with beige/white epoxy paint, which not only protects against corrosion but also allows for aesthetic integration into various interiors. It is worth noting that the standard airflow direction is from the motor side towards the impeller, which is typical for this type of wall-mounted solution.

Control Options and Motor Operation

This model is driven by a single-phase motor operating at 230 V and 50 Hz. The motor features insulation class B and protection rating IP44 (according to the Venture Industries catalog sheet for this series), meaning it is resistant to water splashes from any direction – important for installation in damp cellars or garages. The device achieves a rotational speed of approximately 1340 rpm, generating a maximum airflow capacity of 1680 m³/h (according to manufacturer data) or 1750 m³/h (depending on measurement conditions). The maximum static pressure is approx. 46 Pa, allowing effective air movement even with short duct sections or behind protective grilles.

For installers, information regarding safety features is crucial: the motor is equipped with thermal winding protection against overload, which automatically cuts off power in case of overheating. Moreover, the entire HXM series (including size 350) is adapted for voltage-based speed regulation. This means the ability to control ventilation intensity using simple voltage regulators (e.g., TLR 15 DS type), without the need for more expensive inverters or frequency controllers. The noise level generated by the device during operation is approximately 51 dB(A), making it sufficiently quiet for use in warehouses or utility rooms, although it may be audible in very quiet residential areas.

Operating Conditions and Installation

The fan can operate safely in ambient temperatures from -15°C to +40°C. This wide temperature range allows installation in unheated warehouse halls or winter garages. For electrical connection, this model comes standard with a power cable of 50 cm length, facilitating quick installation without the need for additional wiring at the unit itself (unlike the larger HXM-400 model, which requires a terminal box).

For the HXM-350 model, key operating values include: maximum capacity approx. 1680–1750 m³/h at a static pressure of approx. 46 Pa; power consumption approx. 40–52 W at a current of approx. 0.17–0.2 A; rotational speed around 1340 rpm; sound pressure level approx. 51 dB(A); net device weight approx. 4.3 kg; connection diameter approx. 361 mm; and operating temperature range from -15°C to +40°C with protection rating IP44/IP40 (*depending on the data source).

Installation of the device requires only a standard wall opening of appropriate diameter and access to a single-phase electrical network, due to the simplicity of construction and the absence of complex control systems. The protective grille mounted on the inlet side increases operational safety, preventing large objects from entering the impeller during operation or maintenance. Thanks to this, the fan constitutes a solid and reliable solution for facilities requiring constant air exchange without the need to invest in complex central systems.
