FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Super Vac, one of the leading manufacturers in fire ventilation equipment, is introducing an all-new 18-inch variable-speed battery fan, equipped with dual DeWalt FLEXVOLT batteries, making this one of the most swappable PPV interfaces on the market.
Never in firefighter history has one battery fan worked together with departments’ other DeWalt battery-operated tools. This Super Vac-built V18-BD fan pairs with more than 180 DeWalt products, simplifying your battery purchases.
“We’re proud of this addition. The DeWalt and Super Vac names are long trusted names, and we simply brought them together to deliver the most dependable PPV fan on the market,” Super Vac President Roger Weinmeister said. “This fan rounds out our full line of PPV fans, making it the most robust offering you’ll find. From an 8” Nano to our 80” industrial fan, we are the industry’s one-stop ventilation shop.”
Super Vac’s newest fan is available with dual 9ah or 12ah DeWalt FLEXVOLT batteries, and departments can equip the fan with optional 120-240V AC shore power. The fan delivers a 9,650 cfm output and up to 45 minutes of run time at max airflow, depending on battery selection. Super Vac plans to back these ratings with third-party testing, in accordance with the Air Movement Control Association (AMCA publication 240).
The V18-BD is also being touted as one of the smallest and lightest battery fans in the industry, weighing in at 46 lbs. with a 25.5” x 25” x 11” footprint. The fan also features a unique design that allows for 180-degree tilt for various attacks, allowing the PPV to be directed at attics or manholes or positioned for positive or negative ventilation. The V18-BD’s curved handle provides higher grip for better ergonomics, and standard tires make it highly maneuverable.
