- Fan, axial
- A fan with blades that turn around a shaft. The blades force air to move parallel to the shaft, so air blows across the axis of the fan.
- Fan, centrifugal
- A fan which pulls air in near the shaft and forces it outwards. The air exits through an opening in the outer edge of the scroll-shaped fan casing. A centrifugal fan produces more pressure for a given air volume than an axial fan.
- Fan, radial
- See fan, centrifugal.
- Full load current
- The amount of current a motor will draw when operating fully loaded and at full speed.
- Full load torque
- The amount of torque a motor will produce when operating fully loaded and at full speed.
