  • Active Power Factor Corrected
  • Industry: Religious Infrastructure
  • Location: India
  • Product: Epoch 20-ft HVLS Fan

Problem

  1. St Martin Church is one of the largest churches in India.
  2. During summer seasons the environment inside becomes hot and humid.
  3. Air movement inside the hall was very low.
  4. Wall fans were not suitable because they produce noise.
  5. A silent and effective air circulation solution was required.

Solution

  • Installed Epoch 2.0 20-ft HVLS Fan
  • Coverage Area : 18,000 sq ft
  • Maximum Speed : 60 RPM
  • Peak Power : 1.1 kW
  • Provides powerful airflow with silent operation
Site Survey

Before installation a detailed site survey was conducted to determine the ideal fan size and airflow coverage. Measurements of the hall area and ceiling height were taken to ensure the HVLS fan would deliver maximum efficiency.

  • Total Area : 43 ft × 95 ft = 4,085 sq ft
  • Ceiling Height : 30 – 32 ft
  • Recommended Fan : Epoch 20-ft HVLS Fan
Performance Test Reports

Power Consumption Report

Power consumption was measured at different fan speeds from 20 RPM to 60 RPM. The results confirm that the Epoch HVLS fan maintains excellent energy efficiency while delivering strong airflow. Even at the highest speed the fan consumes only around 1.1 kW which is significantly lower compared to traditional cooling systems.

Input Current Report

Input current was recorded during different operating speeds to verify electrical stability. The current ranged between approximately 0.764 A and 4.8 A with a voltage supply of 230-240 V. This confirms stable and efficient operation of the PMSM motor system.

Airflow Performance Report

Air velocity was measured at multiple distances from the fan center. The results demonstrate strong airflow circulation up to 30 ft away, ensuring uniform air movement across the entire hall area.

Finished Installation

The Epoch 20-ft HVLS fan was successfully installed inside St Martin Church providing powerful air circulation with minimal noise.
