Home | Manufacturers | Howden Fans | Howden Fans OEM Replacement Parts for Blowers, Compressors and Turbines
When your facility relies on older equipment from legacy Howden brands, such as Sirocco, Schiele, Westinghouse Fans, Roots Blowers, Robuschi, or Buffalo Forge, finding the right replacement parts can feel like a dead end.
Knape Associates makes it simple.
We supply genuine OEM parts for Howden fans, blowers, compressors, heaters, and turbines that match your exact application and performance specs.
These components are critical in wastewater treatment plants, chemical processing facilities, the oil & gas industry, and municipal lift stations. Whether you’re working with a centrifugal fan, a multistage blower, or a rotary screw compressor, we help you identify what’s serviceable and what’s worth upgrading.
Our team knows Howden’s legacy systems inside and out. Let’s find your solution.
Knape Associates supplies OEM parts for dozens of legacy Howden brands operating in critical environments today.
From corrosion-prone wastewater systems to high-heat industrial processes, these fans, blowers, and compressors are rarely visible, but absolutely essential.
Facilities still rely on Roots Blowers, Robuschi, and Westinghouse Fans for aeration basins, digesters, and lift stations.
These units are exposed to corrosive gases, biological buildup, and vibration-heavy conditions. A drop in output or imbalance can create major treatment inefficiencies.
Whether you’re running an RBS series blower or a legacy Robuschi unit with a corroded housing, we can help you identify and source the correct replacement part.
Onboard vessels, marine duty applications, and in coastal plants, fans from brands like Airscrew, Sirocco, and Phoenix Fans are used for engine room ventilation, bilge exhaust, and compartment cooling.
These systems operate in salt-heavy, high-humidity conditions where fan blade erosion and motor failures are common.
Knape supplies OEM parts that meet the original spec, so you’re not forced to retrofit or overpay for replacements.
In grain elevators and material transfer systems, equipment like Buffalo Forge and American Fan Company provides steady airflow to prevent dust ignition and maintain equipment temperatures.
These fans are often customized or embedded deep within silo ductwork, making part identification tricky.
We help you match serials to schematics and get the job done without downtime.
Schiele, Howden BC, and Bryan Donkin compressors still support gas movement, vapor recovery, and process pressurization in power generation and chemical batching lines.
For older steam turbines, brands like Kühnle Kopp & Kausch are often irreplaceable without a trusted OEM source. Our network allows us to find what others can’t, and back it up with support you can reach by phone.
No matter the vintage or the challenge, if it came from a Howden brand, there’s a good chance we can help you keep it running.
Howden provides OEM replacement parts for a wide range of legacy brands, including American Fan Company, Schiele Compressors, Robuschi, Buffalo Forge, Westinghouse Fans, Roots Blowers, and many others in the fan, compressor, and turbine categories.

Just because your Powermax, Sturtevant, or Donkin fan is showing signs of fatigue doesn’t mean it’s ready for the scrapyard.
At Knape Associates, we specialize in helping customers restore performance with OEM parts that match legacy Howden brands, even those that haven’t been manufactured in decades.
In many cases, systems fail not because the core unit is beyond repair, but because a single component has finally given out.Â
These are common issues in long-duty units installed in environments like food-grade manufacturing plants, fertilizer facilities, and biofiltration systems.Â
Typical failure points include:
If the core structure is intact, a targeted repair using the correct OEM component can restore function and extend system life for years.
Our team uses brand-specific resources and archived engineering documentation to confirm compatibility before you spend a dollar.Â
For rare models like Sheldon, Joy Green, or Turbowerke Meissen, we can often identify alternatives or source direct replacements through Howden’s extended support channels.
Before you budget for a full replacement, reach out. The system you’re ready to retire may only be one part away from running like new.
 Speak with a Howden specialist today and get matched with the right OEM component fast.
When managing ventilation across a facility, whether a lithium battery energy storage system, a paint booth exhaust line, or a fluidized bed reactor, the challenge isn’t just finding a replacement part.
Finding the right solution that fits your airflow requirements, environmental demands, and timeline.Â
That’s where Knape Associates comes in.
We don’t just search databases. We understand systems.
If your Safanco, Voith, or Engart fan is underperforming, we’ll help assess whether a replacement shaft, wheel, or motor will solve the issue or whether a design tweak or upgrade is warranted.Â
If your Tallares Sanchez Luengo heater is causing uneven thermal distribution in a marine battery enclosure, we’ll identify whether that’s a control issue, a part failure, or something deeper in the system layout.
We’re often brought in when the issue isn’t clear-cut.Â
A fan is humming too loudly in a clean room. A drop in pressure in a BSL lab exhaust system running a Stork or Neu Ventilateurs unit.
In each case, we don’t just ship parts, we ask the right questions, review your application, and deliver a response grounded in real-world experience.
Whether you need a specific part for a discontinued Majax fan or want to evaluate whether your Wheeler system is still fit for purpose, we work fast, ask smart questions, and guide you with clarity.Â
You won’t get a generic response; you’ll get a real partner.
