The Patterson FHVTCA-IDL-SWITCH is a high-velocity dock fan designed to purge a 53-foot trailer quickly during manual loading and unloading. Its purpose-built performance features a 9.5" x 11" blower wheel housed in a high-impact polypropylene enclosure, delivering strong airflow from a compact footprint that minimizes clearance needs at the bay door. When configured with the optional integrated 15-watt LED dock lights and a 4-way switch on the power cord, this unit provides both cooling and convenient lighting for dock operations in one package.
Construction details emphasize durable materials and a compact design that helps maximize space at busy loading docks. The fan operates at 1075 RPM with a typical noise level of 75 dB at 3 feet, and it is rated for continuous duty in ambient temperatures up to 104°F. The system is designed for direct exhaust of warm air from trailers, supporting faster turnover of trailers during peak loading activity. Optional guards and mounting considerations align with safety practices in many dock environments.
Practical use considerations include the need for secure mounting to a wall or mounting yoke in the dock area and awareness that the purge capability is specified for a 53-foot trailer. The product is listed under the janitorial category and is identified by the part number PATFHVTCA-IDL-SWITCH, ensuring traceability and compatibility with existing Patterson HVTC components. As always, verify that the installed configuration (with or without LED lights and switch) matches your dock’s electrical supply and local safety requirements before purchase.
