Family identification

Technical selector

It identifies the catalogue series from the application. It does not calculate Q, Δp or characteristic curves: the duty point and sizing remain with De Cardenas desk engineering.

Catalogue output

Source: De Cardenas series brochures and product pages. Q–Δp curves, size and motor are not estimated by this tool.

Sectors

Process plants and infrastructure.

All sectors

We size the machine on the plant duty point: fluid, temperature, pressure and installation constraints. Not a generic fan: a documented catalogue family, then engineered.
