Rain,
Snow, and Wind - oh my! PART III

| There
are several types of wind creating fans used by the motion
picture industry. The squirrel cage, E-type 21 fan, High
speed fan, Red bird, the Ritter the hurricane fan and
even a robo fan. The Wind machines are designed to create
maximum air-flow with minimum noise for film & television
sound stage use. |

It's
very important to remember that wind can be very dangerous.
It can blow large quantities of debris, which in turn
may be sucked into the fan and injure people. Always check
the blades. Make sure they're secure and that nothing
is loose or rattling around the cage. |

| |
| Never,
and I mean never, shoot debris through the wind machine
blades. If you have something to release (snow, breakaways,
or dust) do it in front of the blade and let the wind
blow it onto the set. |
