The Patterson FHVTCB-IDL-SWITCH-L-MOUNT is a high-velocity dock fan designed to purge a 53-foot trailer quickly during loading and unloading. Its authoritative airflow, combined with a compact footprint, makes it well-suited for busy loading bays where ceiling or wall clearance is limited. The unit is engineered to deliver substantial cooling power while minimizing electrical draw, a balance that helps maintain trailer temperature without overtaxing plant power supplies.
Construction and features are focused on durable performance in demanding dock environments. The fan housing utilizes high-impact polypropylene, with a wheel (blower) measured at 9.5 inches by 11 inches, and an inlet guard with a .5 inch opening. The design supports continuous duty and tolerates elevated ambient temperatures up to 104°F. An integrated LED light option adds visibility for operators at the dock, and a 4-way switch is available for convenient control of power and lighting from a single cord. The unit is specified to operate at 1075 RPM and produces sound levels around 75 dB at 3 feet, providing substantial airflow while keeping noise considerations manageable in a busy dock area.
Practically, this fan is positioned to direct purge air efficiently across the trailer bulkhead, helping to maintain a cooler environment for manual handling tasks. Its compact mounting footprint and fixed 90° orientation are designed to maximize clearance at the dock while maintaining consistent ventilation. Compatibility notes indicate a fixed-angle mount and the optional LED lighting and switch configurations are available as add-ons to tailor the unit to your dock workflow. Package sizing is listed as one unit per package, suitable for straightforward ordering and installation.
