Direction of rotation is determined from drive side of the fan.<br />
On single inlet fans, the drive side is always considered the side opposite the fan inlet.<br />
On double inlet fans with drives on both sides, the drive side is that with the higher power drive unit.<br />
The direction of discharge is determined in accordance with the diagrams shown above. The angle of discharge<br />
references the vertical axis of the fan and is designated in degrees above or below that reference axis.<br />
On fans inverted for ceiling suspension or side-wall mounting, the discharge is determined when the fan<br />
is resting on the floor.<br />
Motor Positions<br />
The drawing above illustrates the AMCA motor position standards for Arrangement 1 and 3 fans<br />
(Arrangement 1 shown). The location of the motor is determined by facing the drive side of the fan and<br />
designating the motor position by letters W, X, Y, or Z, in accordance with the diagram shown above.<br />
