Core Construction

Sealed Explosion-Proof Motor

The motor assembly is selected for the stated explosion-protection configuration and mounted outside the main airflow path on the illustrated models.

Explosion-Proof Switch

A robust switch assembly provides local operating control. Confirm switch rating, cable, plug and power arrangement for the destination market.

Cast-Aluminum Propeller

The aluminum propeller provides a strong, lightweight rotating assembly for portable axial ventilation duty.

Robust Steel Housing

The cylindrical steel casing, protective grille, carrying handle and stable feet support transport and repeated job-site use.

The supplied table does not state the test method, tolerance, measurement distance for noise or the exact mapping between every dual-listed frequency and performance value. Ask AIRTECHZ to confirm the duty point and documentation required for your project.

Optional FRAS Anti-Static Flexible Duct

The optional black flexible duct is made from PVC flame-resistant and static-free (FRAS) fabric reinforced with a helical steel wire. It is intended to connect to the blower for temporary air supply or extraction of fumes, dust and contaminated air.

  • Flame-resistant and anti-static FRAS fabric
  • Helical steel-wire reinforcement
  • Flexible construction for temporary routing
  • Earth clamp supplied with each duct
Grounding matters: the duct’s conductive path and earth clamp must be connected and verified according to the site procedure. Duct length, bends and restrictions increase resistance and reduce delivered airflow.

How to Select the Correct Model

1. Confirm the Hazard

Identify gas, vapour, mist or dust; the zone/category; gas or dust group; temperature class; and ambient conditions.

2. Define the Ventilation Duty

Provide the space volume, target air changes, required airflow, duct diameter, total duct length, bends and whether air is supplied or extracted.

3. Confirm Electrical Details

Specify voltage, frequency, plug or terminal arrangement, cable length and any site-specific switch or connector requirements.
