Powerfoil® D
Designed with the size, power and efficiency to tackle oppressive temperatures or stagnant air head on. Powerfoil D is perfect for spaces that need quiet, durable airflow.
Product Highlights
Durably engineered with premium materials and rated IP66 to withstand harsh industrial conditions, Powerfoil D excels in hot, dusty spaces that typically prove too challenging for other gearless overhead fans. Its versatile design, virtually silent motor, and 15-year warranty makes this HVLS fan the ideal choice for facilities looking for quiet comfort.
Available in diameters of 4.3m – 7.3m, Powerfoil D creates powerful airflow, moving up to 109 cubic meters of air per second. The airfoils’ aerodynamic design and cuffed winglets reduce wind turbulence and noise, keeping airflow consistent throughout the coverage area.
Energy Usage
With Powerfoil D’s energy-efficient motor, this fan uses minimal energy to deliver powerful airflow, creating comfortable conditions far more efficiently than air conditioning. In winter, the fan equalizes temperatures from floor to ceiling, making heaters more efficient.
By reducing existing HVAC costs by up to 30%, Powerfoil D pays for itself in no time. And with an estimated annual operational cost of just $1,030 per year (about $2.82 per day), you can enjoy the benefits of this energy-efficient fan without breaking the bank.

BMS Integration
Powerfoil D is pre-programmed for easy BMS integration, allowing you to sync up to eight fans effortlessly. Featuring SmartSense® automated modes that adjust the fan speeds based on temperature for optimal efficiency, reducing energy consumption without compromising comfort.
All-in one Safety
At Big Ass Fans, safety is our top priority. That’s why Powerfoil D is designed with multiple redundant safeguards, including aircraft-grade steel safety cables and an Airfoil Restraint® System. In the event of severe impact damage, the Airfoil Restraint® System suspends the fan’s airfoils, preventing them from dislodging and potentially causing harm.
