WHY SUPER ENERGY EFFICIENT CEILING FANS?

Regular old ceiling fans

Ceiling fans escape one’s mind when thinking about reducing electricity cost. This forgotten appliance contributes significantly to electricity consumption due to its numbers and hours of usage. The following estimation supports this claim. A regular ceiling fan (1200 mm span) consumes about 75 W at the highest speed.  There are over 400 million regular ceiling fans in India and each of them creates an electricity demand about 39W* (consumption at medium speed).




Super energy efficient ceiling fans

At present Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) ceiling fan is the popular choice of super energy efficient ceiling fans in India. There are two premier BLDC ceiling fan brands in India – Superfan (Versa Drives Private Limited) and Gorilla fans (Atomberg Technologies)**. These ceiling fans (1200mm span) consume 35W at the highest speed so they save over 50% of electricity consumption.




The higher efficiency comes with no compromise in air delivery. Now consider replacing all the ceiling fans in India with super energy efficient ceiling fans. The reduction in electricity demand created by ceiling fans will be:



What are the effects of 10000 MW?

1 tonne of coal is burnt to generate 0.82 units (kWh) of electricity [1]. The burning of 1 tonne of coal produces 1.44 tonnes of carbon dioxide [2]. Therefore, we are burning 1,200 tonnes of coal in vain to meet the extra 10,000MW demand.





Superfan’s mission is to replace the 400+ million ceiling fans in India with super energy efficient ceiling fans and save over 10,000 MW in demand.  Join us to be a part of this mission.

INDIA’S MOST ENERGY EFFICIENT CEILING FANS?

Image
BLDC technology in ceiling fans is the latest in India, which led to  Super Energy Efficient Ceiling Fans  [1]. There are at least 27 manufacturers of BLDC ceiling fans with lofty claims like most efficient energy-efficient ceiling fans in India/World, highest air delivery, least power consumption, etc. These claims are deceptive marketing and a few bad apples who employ these tactics in the industry create a bad name for the entire industry and the technology. This article brings out the fallacy and futility of these marketing claims and its ill effects on the public. Superfan As we are a part of the industry, it is only fair to put forth our marketing claims. ‘India’s first super energy efficient ceiling fan’  – Superfan is the first BLDC fan in India and founded in 2012 by Versa Drives Pvt. Ltd, Coimbatore. This claim of being India’s first super energy-efficient ceiling fans is easily verified as there is only one ‘first’.  ‘Award-winning model – Super X1‘ – Super X

SUPERFAN – FAN RE ‘INVENTED’

Image
Superfan’s patented original design has brought numerous innovations to a stagnant Indian ceiling fan industry. The following are a select few that shows why Superfan is ‘Fan reinvented’. BLDC Ceiling Fans Super Energy Efficient Ceiling Fan (35 W) Superfan broke the 35W barrier to enable an Indian ceiling fan to enter the  super energy-efficient  category of appliances. This novel design has been awarded two patents  (2873/CHE/2009 and 3505/CHE/2012). Sensor-less BLDC control One of the challenges in BLDC technology was to minimize the failures of hall sensors. Superfan introduced the first ceiling fan in India with no hall sensor for position sensing. This was accomplished by developing a robust back EMF sensing in the firmware. Active Power Factor Correction The SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) is integrated with Active Power Factor Correction (APC).[a] Superfan has a power factor of 0.99* while running at the top speed. At the lowest speed (step speed 1), its p
