Super Vac Valor Series Electric PPV – V20-EX
20″ Valor PPV, 1.0 Hp Hazardous Location Motor
Powered by an Bluffton, explosion-proof Class 1, Group D electric motor, this PPV fan provides a slightly larger fan for departments that encounter hazardous, explosive environments with medium to large residential structures, as well as commercial buildings. Featuring a patent-pending frame design that is simple and intuitive to position on the fireground, the Valor
series is engineered to ease the toughest ventilation challenges.
POSITIVE PRESSURE VENTILATOR
A Super Vac, part number #V20-EX, 20″ electric positive pressure ventilator shall be supplied. The unit shall be cart-style designed with rear-mounted wheels, a full-height frame and a tilt-up, full-width handle for easy positioning and rapid deployment. The components of the positive pressure ventilator shall be 100% manufactured and assembled in the United States.
The entire frame of the unit shall be constructed of aluminum that shall surround the shroud and the seven-blade 20” airfoil propeller in a roll-cage design that shall enhance lifting and user safety. The blade shall be constructed of precision-cast aluminum alloy #A356. The blade shall be driven by the electric motor that shall have a direct drive connection. Any ventilators using plastic or nylon blades shall not be acceptable due to the high radiant heat found on the fire scene.
The shroud and the safety grill shall be designed as to provide maximum air velocity. The positive pressure ventilator shall have a foot-activated tilt control with seven positions, including three positions that can direct airflow downward. The standard angle of air direction shall be equipped with positions of the air flow to 18, 12, 6, 0, -6, -12 and -18 degrees above and below horizontal level. Ventilators that do not tilt into a downward direction shall not be acceptable due to the need to fit taller firefighters while moving the unit and the need to easily access the engine controls for starting.
The rubber, never-flat tires shall be engineered to be in the back (engine side) of the fan to help protect the shroud while moving the unit and allow the unit to be re-positioned on the fire scene without personnel turning their backs to the doorway. Any ventilator with wheels on the shroud side shall not be acceptable.
The PPV shall be powered by a 1 Horsepower electric motor that is limited by Underwriters Laboratory for Hazardous Locations up to and including Class 1, Group D.
The front and rear safety guards shall be designed to OSHA and U.L. Standards to prevent accidental contact with the blade. The unit shall be certified to AMCA 240-15 for air movement, and the air movement shall exceed 9,007 cubic feet per minute as listed at www.amca.org.
The positive pressure ventilator shall be designed with the following:
