Industrial refrigeration: why choose polypropylene extractors
In industrial refrigeration systems, ventilation plays a critical role in ensuring safety, performance, and durability. The machine rooms of refrigeration plants, particularly those handling ammonia (NH₃) or other refrigerants, are exposed to demanding conditions: high humidity, frequent alkaline washdowns, and aggressive atmospheres. In these environments, an exhaust fan must offer much more than just airflow performance; it must withstand corrosion and recurring chemical stresses over time.
SEAT Ventilation's polypropylene extractors are specifically designed for these industrial constraints. Unlike traditional metal fans that require protective coatings prone to degradation, high-density polypropylene offers inherent chemical immunity . This means permanent resistance to alkaline attack, industrial fumes, and repeated cleaning without any loss of performance.
Thanks to its thermal stability, this material retains its aerodynamic profile and optimal airflow even after thousands of hours of operation — guaranteeing consistent performance for 15 to 20 years with minimal maintenance.
Advantages of polypropylene extractors with SEAT Ventilation
✔ Corrosion resistance in humid or alkaline refrigeration environments.
✔ Extended lifespan with reduced maintenance costs.
✔ Thermal and mechanical stability from -20 °C to +80 °C without embrittlement.
✔ Reduced weight , facilitating installation and decreasing logistics costs.
✔ Optimized return on investment , often from the first years of operation.
Typical applications of SEAT polypropylene extractors
SEAT industrial extractors made of polypropylene are perfectly suited to the following locations:
- Refrigeration machine rooms and industrial refrigeration plants
- Food processing plants with regular chemical cleaning
- Areas exposed to corrosive vapors or aggressive atmospheres
- Premises requiring reliable emergency extraction
- Installations where the integrity of the ventilation cannot be compromised
Choosing SEAT Ventilation solutions in polypropylene guarantees efficient ventilation in the most severe environments , while optimizing reliability, safety and overall operating cost.
