A fan guard for a condenser unit of an air conditioner which supports the fan motor made of wire formed into a plurality of concentric rings or rectangles, or a spiral, secured to a spaced plurality of first radially-oriented elements each having at its peripherally-positioned end an orifice for fastening the guard to the unit and to an interspaced plurality of second radially-oriented elements each having at its end, closest to the fan guard's center, an orifice for fastening the motor to the guard, a third element extending all across the guard, and a sturdy ring affixed to at least the first and second elements proximate to the center. The guard preferably is convex whose wire elements have an elongated cross-sectional shape with lower airflow resistance. The fan guard has low fabrication and materials costs and allows use of motors with lower energy consumption for the same airflow efficiency.
A fan guard for an air conditioning machine comprising a cabinet having openings through which air can flow to the inside space of said cabinet for transferring heat between said air and a fluid circulating through a pipe located inside said cabinet, wherein said air flow is induced by means of a motor driving a fan, which induces the air towards an outlet of said cabinet and wherein said guard adapted to be fixed to said cabinet over said outlet with said motor with fan being supported by said guard;
