3 Unit description
The combination of powerful axial fan and well
thought out accessories for connecting air distribution hoses make the unit a particularly versatile solution for aeration and ventilation, air circulation and
also for transporting warming air or cooling air over
longer distances.
The unit is also ideally suited to provide ef
support for dehumidifiers when drying buildings.
The rapid air movement breaks up the high
humidity layer on the material and increases the
evaporation rate. This results in walls, ceilings and
floors drying faster! The higher the flow rate on the
damp surface of the material, the faster the drying
process. Thus, the drying time can be drastically
shortened through the combination of dehumidifiers and this powerful fan, depending on the
respective environment and temperature. The use
of additional fans accelerates the evaporation
whereby the drying process can be shortened by
up to 50%.
The unit has hose connection ports on both sides
allowing very versatile use.
The unit is equipped with a 2-speed high-performance axial fan, operating hours counter, motor
overload protection switch and mains cable with
230 V CEE connector.
