Peerless' Industrial Blower A series solves your most demanding industrial air handling applications with heavy-gauge housings, direct or belt drives, lip and flange connections, and meticulously welded steel frames.

Wheel
Our high-efficiency "Peerless" wheel design features precision-fabricated impeller blades that are fully welded to a spun wheel cone, balanced against a CNC laser-cut backplate and cast-iron hub.

• Flat Blade Backward Inclined Wheel.
• Dynamic Factory Balanced.
• Clockwise or Counter-clockwise Rotation.
• 15,000 FPM Wheel Tip Max Speed.

Frame
Indoor/outdoor, open-member steel frames with pedestal motor mounts keep drivetrains and wheels in alignment longer than formed sheet frames, resulting in longer maintenance intervals.

• Fully-Welded Steel Frame.
• Easy Maintenance Access.
• Fewer Alignment Adjustments Needed.

Housing
All fan housings can be fully rotated to reposition the discharge at any of the pre-drilled intervals, allowing for a wide range of installation and ducting configurations. Housing rotation does not require rebalancing.

• Factory or Field Repositioning.
• A-9 to A-17 have 22.5° Intervals.
• A-19 to A-23 have 15° Intervals.
• A-26 to A-33 have 11.25° Intervals.

Connections
Depending on the Arrangement specified, inlet and discharge ducting flange or ducting lip connections are available. See product literature for each model's standard connections.

• Ducting Flange and Lip Connection.
• Check Literature for Standard Connections by Model.

Finish
Standard paint finish is a baked polyester coating over phosphatize-cleaned steel materials.

• Highly Durable Polyester Coating.
• Steel is Cleaned and Prepped Prior to Coating.
• High Abrasion Resistance for Long.

Drive System
Configure as either an adjustable pitch V-belt or direct drive, with heavy-duty motor base rails, ground and polished keyed shafts, and self-aligning normal duty bearings.

• V-Belt or Direct Drive.
• Factory-Set RPM Available.
• Single Speed, TEFC, Inverter Duty Motor.
• 100K Run Hour Bearings
