Function

Use

  

The 

exodraft

 CFI Inline fan is intended for use as a true in-line draft inducer. It can be installed 

in-line in the vertical or horizontal section of the fluepipe. It is specifically designed for applications 

where reliable and efficient operation, low noise level, low energy consumption, variable speed 

and compact design are critical.

 

 The CFI is for use with condensing and non-condensing appliances at flue gas temperatures of 

(300 

o

C) for continuous operation.

 

Typical uses are mechanical venting of gas-fired or oil-fired boilers and water heaters. The CFI is for 

indoor or outdoor installation where ambient temperatures are in the range of  -40 

o

C to 50 

o

C.

Construction  

The CFI Inline fan is an efficient, high-temperature ventilator with backward-inclined impeller 

of cast aluminum. The ventilator housing is made of stainless steel (316L) and equipped with an 

energy-efficient, totally enclosed, variable speed motor with sealed and permanently lubricated 

bearings. The motor and impeller is a complete assembly (drive unit) that can be removed from the 

fan housing without removing the fan from the stack system. The stack connections fit most com-

mercial pre-fabricated chimney systems.  

Restrictions  

The CFI Inline fan should only be used with appliances operating on Natural Gas, LP-Gas/Butane or 

fuel oil. It should never be used with incinerators or solid-fuel burning equipment. The temperature 

of the flue gases going through the Inline fan should not exceed 300 °C. 

 

The CFI is not suitable for pulsating boilers.
