Value Collection SO2151-5 Fan Guard 4.7 Inches

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SO2151-5 is a fan guard designed to protect fan blades and surrounding components from accidental contact and debris ingestion. At 4.7 inches in diameter, this guard fits small-to-mid-range fan assemblies commonly found in HVAC equipment, refrigeration units, and industrial ventilation applications. Weighing just 0.1 pounds, it installs with minimal added load on the fan housing. HVAC technicians and equipment maintenance professionals use guards like this to meet safety requirements and extend the service life of fan components by preventing foreign object intrusion.

This fan guard is suited for use on 4.7-inch fan assemblies in residential and light commercial HVAC equipment, refrigeration condensing units, and other mechanical systems requiring blade protection. It is appropriate for new installations and as a direct replacement when an existing guard is damaged, corroded, or missing. Its compact size and low weight make it practical for tight equipment enclosures where clearance is limited.

Key Features

• 4.7-inch diameter fits standard small-frame fan assemblies
• Lightweight at 0.1 pounds — minimal impact on fan housing load
• Functions as a protective accessory to prevent blade contact and debris ingestion

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or add-on guard for fan assemblies measuring 4.7 inches in diameter across HVAC, refrigeration, and ventilation equipment.

Installation Notes

Fan guards are typically installed or replaced by HVAC technicians or mechanical maintenance personnel. Always disconnect and lock out electrical power to the equipment before removing or installing a fan guard. Secure the guard firmly to the fan housing using the appropriate fasteners for the equipment to prevent vibration-related loosening during operation. Verify that the installed guard does not contact fan blades at any point in the rotation arc before restoring power.
