Every component of a fan assembly must work seamlessly together to deliver the best performance, efficiency, and customer experience. 

 


 AoFrio’s new range of  Wellington® Fan Packs provide a modular solution with the option of four fan sizes (7”, 8”, 9” and 10”) and two industry-leading ECR®2 Motors (13W or 26W), giving original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) eight fan pack options that cover most cabinet applications. 

With precision blades and low-profile shrouds that are co-designed to maximise performance, the fan packs range from AoFrio deliver unmatched cooling performance and proven reliability, all while significantly reducing stock-keeping units (SKUs).   

  “Our decades of airflow engineering have gone into every detail of the new AoFrio Fan Packs. With this, we’re enabling OEMs to achieve stronger, quieter airflow and real energy savings in a drop-in, easy-to-integrate solution. It’s about delivering smarter, more reliable refrigeration performance that helps our customers stay ahead in a demanding market.”

Peter Barnes, Product Manager, AoFrio Ltd 

Superior airflow 

Wellington Fan Packs are designed to optimize airflow, resulting in stronger cooling, quieter performance, and exceptional energy efficiency. Combining advanced motor technology with precision blades, they ensure reliable air circulation that enhances performance across a range of uses, including harsh environments and demanding load conditions.  

Key highlights:  

  • Integrated motor-blade design outperforms generic assemblies for maximum airflow and cooling power. 
  • Modular design achieves maximum airflow between 450m³/h and 1200 m³/h, offering capacity for diverse applications.  
  • Whole-system optimization for maximum performance

Supply chain simplicity 

Designed for OEMs, the fan packs provide drop-in compatibility, simplifying installation and retrofits and giving you the flexibility to cater for diverse customer needs.  

With global voltage, programmable control and a range of sizes to choose from, the single Wellington Fan Pack family replaces multiple part numbers, reducing the SKUs you need to manage and simplifying procurement and inventory management. 

Key highlights:  

  • A single engineered solution combining our ECR 2 Motor, blades, and low-profile shroud 
  • Universal voltage (100–240V), simplified installation, and programmable control with universal mounting simplify deployment, anywhere in the world 
  • Multiple fan sizes (7”, 8”, 9” and 10”) and two motor options allow precise selection for most cabinet applications, reducing SKUs and design complexity. 

 Ultra-quiet operation 

AoFrio’s advanced fan blade designs and co-designed motors reduce turbulence, ensuring consistent and efficient airflow and keeping the equipment running smoothly without adding to ambient noise. 

Key highlights: 

  • Advanced aerodynamic design and precision-balanced blades minimize vibration and turbulence.  
  • Robust 3-phase motor technology ensures reliable, smooth performance. 
  • Low noise levels ideal for customer-facing environments such as restaurants, cafes and supermarkets. 

 Proven reliability 

AoFrio’s fan packs are engineered for robust, low-maintenance performance, even in high-humidity or high-duty-cycle environments, giving your products a competitive edge.  

With IP67 moisture protection, durable injection moulded fans and proven ECR motor technology, the fan packs deliver long-term reliability, reducing field failures and warranty claims. 

Key highlights: 

  • Built for long-term performance with10-year design life 
  • IP67-rated moisture protection 
  • 17 million+ motors sold globally with consistent performance 

 Energy savings 

AoFrio’s fan packs use high-efficiency ECR motors and an advanced aerodynamic blade design, ensuring top-tier performance while reducing energy consumption. 

Multiple fan speed settings and optional variable speed control means you only use the energy you need, helping to lower operating costs and meet sustainability targets.  

Key highlights:  

  • Delivers 74% motor efficiency and uses 1/3 of the energy of a traditional motor  
  • Multiple fan speed settings for tailored airflow 
  • Advanced blade profiles engineered for airflow and efficiency excellence
