Gas Boosting

Industrial processes involving combustion or gas handling often require increased gas pressure to ensure safety, efficiency, and control. At Fans and Blowers, we manufacture high-pressure fans specifically designed for gas boosting applications, supplying combustion systems, burners, and kilns with the required air-gas mixture or pure gas flow.

Our fans are engineered to handle demanding operating conditions, ensuring reliable performance, pressure stability, and compliance with gas handling regulations.

The Role of Fans in Gas Boosting Systems

Gas boosting is used to increase the pressure of process gases—whether natural gas, biogas, or air-gas mixtures—before combustion or further distribution. Our fans are critical components in these systems, maintaining a controlled, pressurised flow to ensure:

• Stable burner performance
• Clean combustion with minimal emissions
• Efficient heat transfer in industrial kilns and ovens
• Accurate delivery in gas-handling or dosing systems

Fans are often integrated into boiler rooms, industrial burners, heat treatment plants, and energy recovery systems.

Designed for Safety and Performance

Handling gases under pressure requires strict engineering standards. Our gas boosting fans are manufactured using leak-tight constructions, high-integrity bearings, and materials compatible with gaseous media.

We work with clients to match:

• Required boost pressure and flow volume
• Gas type and properties (e.g. natural gas, syngas, biogas)
• Operating temperature and system duty cycle
• Regulatory requirements for flame arresters, ATEX zones, or monitoring integration

Systems can be fitted with vibration detection, pressure sensors, and variable-speed motors for closed-loop combustion control.

Recommended Fan Ranges

QPZ Centrifugal Fans

Engineered for high-pressure gas boosting, the QPZ range offers robust construction and excellent performance stability. Suitable for kilns, process burners, and thermal oxidisers.

QZ Series

Heavy-duty fans for continuous-duty gas boosting under challenging pressure and temperature conditions. Designed for integration into combustion control systems.

Custom Assemblies

We offer bespoke gas handling fan systems with gas-tight housings, safety features, and compact footprints for plantroom integration.

All fans can be manufactured to meet ATEX standards where explosive gases are present.
