The Patterson PS18A High Velocity Fan is a rugged, portable solution designed to improve air movement in factory, warehouse, and staging areas. Its 18-inch Class High-Velocity design combines a durable housing with a patented Venturi barrel and side air inlets to project and entrain airflow over a broad area, helping to refresh workspaces, aid condensation control, and contribute to a cooler, more comfortable environment for employees. The unit is built with a high-impact polypropylene fan housing paired with heavy-gauge steel construction, and it uses maintenance-free, direct-drive motors with sealed bearings for reliable long-term operation. Available in multiple voltages, the PS18A supports 115V through 460V configurations and can be configured with optional oscillator kits to provide wider air coverage when needed. It comes with a 12-foot power cord for 115V models, and features OSHA-compliant steel finger guards for personnel protection. A variety of mounting options (up to eight) allows placement flexibility in aisles, workstations, or shipping zones, making it adaptable to diverse facility layouts.
The 17-inch propeller, three-blade galvalume design, and 33-degree inlet/outlet geometry are purpose-built to deliver substantial air throw without excessive noise, making it suitable for keeping airflow moving in areas with dense equipment or stocking activities. With a rated airflow of up to around 3,800 CFM and an approximate 80-foot air throw, this fan is designed to shift significant volumes of air while maintaining a manageable decibel level at typical operating distances. The 2-year warranty provides reassurance of its durability in demanding environments. When selecting a Patterson high-velocity fan, consider using the varied mounting options and optional oscillator kits to tailor air distribution to specific work zones and personnel comfort needs.
