Abstract

See full text

A fan for use in agriculture includes a housing, a motor, a propeller, a damper, and a controller. The damper is connected to the housing and is movable between open positions and a fully closed position. The controller controls the motor to rotate in a first rotational direction to cause the propeller to generate airflow in a first airflow direction through the housing from an inlet to an outlet and, upon receiving an instruction to shut down, controls the motor to rotate in a second rotational direction, opposite to the first rotational direction, to cause the propeller to generate airflow in a second airflow direction, opposite to the first airflow direction, through the housing from the outlet to the inlet, before ceasing rotation.
