The PATDB-A-W/O-SWITCH-460V Patterson DB-A-W/O-SWITCH-460V is a high-velocity, low-profile industrial fan designed to move a significant column of air while occupying minimal ceiling and wall space. Engineered to emulate the performance of larger 18-inch models, this unit provides powerful airflow in a compact footprint, making it well suited for pick modules, dock doors, and other areas with limited headroom. Its 460V configuration indicates a high-performance motor setup designed for demanding environments where ample air movement is needed without sacrificing precious space.
Constructed with a robust combination of materials, the blower wheels are 6.25 inches by 6.5 inches in galvanneal (GalvAlum), and the fan housing is made from high-impact polypropylene (HIPP). The unit features laser-cut steel inlets and an HDPE outlet, along with OSHA-compliant finger guards to help maintain safety in fast-paced facilities. A half-horsepower motor drives a dual blower arrangement, delivering a quiet operation with a reported 60 decibels at 3 feet and an effective coverage area of up to 2700 square feet. The design emphasizes energy efficiency with minimal energy consumption for sustained use in busy processing or fulfillment spaces.
This model prioritizes practical installation considerations; it is mounted in a yoke configuration with no switch included, requiring integration into your facility’s power and control system. While the data confirms its noise level and airflow characteristics, verify compatibility with your electrical infrastructure and local codes when planning curbside or in-workflow deployments. Typical maintenance considerations include periodic inspection of guards and housing, and ensuring the power supply aligns with the unit’s voltage requirements for reliable operation.
