The Patterson FHVTCA loading dock fan is a high-velocity ventilation solution designed to purge trailers quickly during manual loading and unloading. Engineered for efficiency, this 115V unit delivers strong airflow with a compact profile, making it suitable for trailers at standard dock-door openings without excessive vertical clearance.
Constructed with a high-impact polypropylene fan housing and a 9.5" x 11" blower wheel, the FHVTCA is designed to move air efficiently while maintaining a durable enclosure. The unit operates at 1075 RPM and is specified for continuous duty, with a rated ambient temperature tolerance up to 104°F. An optional 15W integrated LED dock light and a 4‑way switch can be added to provide simple control of both power and lighting from a single cord, helping to streamline dock-area operations.
Typical use involves purging a 53-foot trailer’s air rapidly to improve working conditions and reduce heat buildup during loading or unloading cycles. The fan’s dimensions and mounting option (yoke mount) support flexible installation in spaces with limited clearance at the dock door. It is important to note that performance claims such as airflow (CFM) and noise levels are provided by the manufacturer and should be considered in context with the specific dock configuration and ambient conditions. When sizing and wiring are planned, ensure compatible power supply and appropriate mounting hardware are used to meet continuous-duty expectations.
In terms of packaging and maintenance, the unit is supplied as a single fan assembly suitable for installation with existing dock hardware. If you require assistive guidance on fit and configuration for your facility, our team can help assess compatibility and options, including LED lighting add-ons and control wiring choices.
