The central functional areas of the fan in axial (left) and radial fans (right): the impeller as the aerodynamic core (green), the motor with integrated electronics as the drive unit (orange), and the stator, meaning the air-guiding and supporting structures (blue). (Image: ebm-papst) The minimum efficiencies for axial fans have been gradually increased since 2013. Starting in 2026, a minimum Fan Efficiency Grade of 50 percent will apply – the static total efficiency at the Best Point is decisive. (Pe = electrical input power; ηmin = minimum fan efficiency; ηse = static total efficiency; BEP = Best Point) (Image: ebm-papst) The requirements for radial fans with backward-curved blades are also increasing. From 2026, the minimum required Fan Efficiency Grade will be 64 percent, setting a new efficiency standard.
