Yes. Greenheck’s Inline Axial and Centrifugal fan Models TAB, BSQ and TCB are very versatile in how they can be mounted. However, keep in mind that when the fan is mounted with the motor on the side, the motor weight may cause uneven loading on the isolators. This uneven loading can be overcome by mounting the fan on a set of rails that extend beyond the fan on both sides so that the weight of the fan and motor are carried between the outboard isolators.
