The TPIPBS48BHL is a portable industrial drum-style blower fan designed to move large volumes of air in hazardous locations. Built with a corrosion- and dent-resistant high-density polyethylene housing, this unit channels airflow through a 48-inch blade diameter driven by a belt-drive motor system. The keepsafe design includes spiral wire guards for operator protection and four aluminum blades that contribute to its performance. A 2-wheel cart base allows for mobility, and the drum-like frame is engineered for tilting the airflow vertically in 12.5-degree increments, enabling directed ventilation with a maximum ambient temperature rating of 100°F. The fan is equipped with permanently lubricated ball bearing motors and is available in single-phase explosion-proof construction suitable for Class 1, Group D and Class 11, Groups E, F, and G environments, reflecting its focus on rugged, industrial applications where hazardous conditions may be present. The unit uses a 120/240 V, 1-phase power supply, rated at 15 A and 3600 W, with a nominal speed of 390 rpm, and it operates at a sound level around 73 dB, which may be a consideration for space planning and crew comfort. It is UL Listed and cETL Listed, and carries a limited 1-year warranty, offering confidence in its safety and compliance credentials while keeping in mind that no power cord is included for hazardous-location configurations.
This drum blower is suitable for ventilation tasks in industrial settings such as process rooms, spray booths, or maintenance areas where portable, high-CFM air movement is needed. When planning use, consider that the blower’s maximum CFM is achieved at peak speed/load and that its rugged assembly relies on a polyethylene housing to resist corrosion in challenging environments. The unit ships as a single package and does not require assembly, facilitating quick site deployment.
Note: The product data indicate explosion-proof, hazardous-location variants with specific UL/cETL listings and external junction boxes, but always verify that your installation site and electrical supply match the exact hazardous-location specification and that any required wiring and mounting hardware are provided by a qualified electrician.
