Richco Series, Finger Guards, Filters & Sleeves

Products in this product family are widely used as supplementary components for various types of fans. Their primary purpose is to minimize the risk of damage or injury caused by accidental contact with moving parts, reduce the accumulation of dust and debris in air systems, and minimize the transmission of mechanical vibrations between the fan and its supporting structure. One of the key functions of these products is to enhance safety by preventing accidental contact with the moving parts of a fan. They serve as protective measures to reduce the risk of injury or damage. For example, finger guards are commonly used to create a physical barrier around the fan blades, preventing direct contact and reducing the likelihood of accidents. Another important aspect is the maintenance of cleanliness and efficiency in air systems. The products in this category, such as filters, play a vital role in reducing the accumulation of dust, debris, and other particles that can hinder the performance of fans. By capturing these contaminants, they help ensure clean and healthy airflow, improving the overall functioning of the system. In addition, these products are designed to minimize the transmission of mechanical vibrations between the fan and the structure to which it is attached. Vibration-isolating mounts and brackets are commonly employed to dampen vibrations generated by the fan, thereby reducing noise and preventing the transfer of vibrations to the surrounding structure. This feature is particularly beneficial in applications where excessive vibration can cause damage or discomfort. While these products are indispensable for the optimal functioning of fans, it is important to note that they are considered separate from the main components of the fan system. This distinction allows for a clear differentiation between the core components of the fan itself and the supplementary accessories aimed at enhancing safety, cleanliness, and vibration reduction. By providing a range of common supplements, this product family caters to the diverse needs of users, ensuring improved safety, cleanliness, and performance in various applications involving fans.
