The Patterson H18A is an 18-inch high-velocity industrial fan designed to move large volumes of air for demanding spaces. With a 1/2 horsepower TEAO (Totally Enclosed Air Over) motor and a direct-drive configuration, it delivers up to 3,800 CFM at 1725 RPM, providing robust air circulation and cooling for longer tunnel runs, pick modules, trailers, and multiple workstation areas. The unit is built for industrial use and includes a yoke mount option for flexible installation, enabling positioning that optimizes air throw and coverage across work zones.
Key construction features support durable, low-maintenance operation in harsh environments. The fan uses galvanized aluminum blades and a high-impact polypropylene housing with a powder-coated, corrosion-resistant finish. A side-vented barrel design along with a deep venturi inlet/outlet promotes a stable, even column of air across its expansive 80-foot throw. The enclosed, sealed bearings design reduces maintenance needs, while OSHA-compliant recessed finger guards add a level of safety during operation. The unit ships with a 12-foot power cord and operates on 115V at 60 Hz, suitable for standard electrical circuits in many industrial facilities.
Practical considerations include its single-speed operation and non-oscillating configuration, which yields consistent airflow patterns ideal for guiding air down aisles or through pickup tunnels. Its dimensions (approximately 24 x 16 x 24 inches) and weight (about 44 pounds) inform installation clearances and mounting choices. The PATH18A is provided with a yoke mount for versatile mounting locations and can be installed as a freestanding, wall, or column-mounted unit depending on the workplace layout. A two-year limited warranty offers coverage for manufacturing defects under typical operating conditions.
