The Patterson CS18B High Velocity Fan is a rugged, industrial-grade solution designed to move large volumes of air in warehouses, factories, and other commercial spaces. This 18-inch, high-velocity model is built to help with cross-ventilation, aisle cooling, and condensation management, supporting a safer and more productive work environment. Its durable construction combines a heavy-gauge steel frame with a high-impact polypropylene (HIPP) housing and a 3-blade galvalume propeller, engineered to withstand demanding use in challenging settings.
Key design features include a patented Venturi-designed barrel and side air intakes that optimize airflow projection and entrainment, allowing for effective coverage across work areas. The unit ships with a maintenance-free, direct-drive motor and long-lasting sealed bearings, with a totally enclosed configuration to resist dust and debris. The fan is available with multiple voltage options (115V through 460V) and offers several mounting configurations, including the option for an oscillator kit and a range of 8 mounting choices to suit diverse installations. OSHA-compliant finger guards provide an added layer of safety for operator interaction, while a 12-foot power cord is provided on the 115V version for flexible placement.
With a documented air throw of up to 80 feet and a rated CFM around 3,800, this unit is suitable for large-area ventilation tasks and targeted spot cooling. When selecting this fan, consider the specific voltage requirement, mounting method, and any optional accessories to achieve optimal air movement for your application. The CS18B’s 2-year warranty provides reassurance of its durability in continuous duty environments, and its relatively compact footprint helps fit into crowded spaces without sacrificing performance.
