  • Belt - Drive Gas Power Firefighting Equipment Tempest Blowers

    Belt – Drive Gas Power Blower

    Tempest exclusive belt-drive design reduces engine wear, improves CFM performance, and provides greater stability.
    • AIRFLEX COMPOSITION IMPELLER
      Uniquely designed impellers deliver maximum air volume (CFM), velocity, and pressure from each Tempest Power Blower™. Every size and type of fan features a blade designed specifically for it to deliver the greatest performance possible. Composite blades are much safer than traditional metal blades as they are designed to disintegrate upon the impact of any foreign objects. Metal blades may fragment when integrity is compromised, potentially causing severe injury.
    • WELDED STEEL ROLL CAGE FRAME
      Every bend and cross brace weld is structurally engineered to increase the blower frame’s strength to weight ratio by as much as 30%. Welds eliminate the need to continuously maintain/tighten nuts and bolts. Its roll cage design gives protection to all angles and sides of the shroud and motor.
    • ERGONOMIC DESIGN
      The exclusive frame design makes it convenient to lift, carry, and transport. Numerous points on the frame double as lifting/carrying handles. The design itself is the result of three decades of testing, research, and experience to create the most ergonomic platform possible.
    • FOOT OPERATED TILT ADJUSTMENT
      No levers to set or knobs to tighten when setting the angle for PPV/PPA. Foot-operated adjustment is quick, easy, and secure. Allows for up to 5 (4 on 16” models) tilt positions: -5°, 0°, +5°, +10°, +15°
    • BELT DRIVEN
      The Tempest Belt-Drive positive pressure ventilation fans were designed with two major goals in mind. The first was to keep the engine at the lowest center of gravity as possible. Doing so greatly reduces the amount of vibration produced by the fan and guarantees it will not “walk”. Secondly, the belt/pulley system allows Tempest engineers to maximize the RPM’s at the blade, optimizing CFM output. The Belt-Drive has been categorized as the “Cadillac” of PPV fans.
    • GASOLINE ENGINES – PPA
      Gasoline-powered fans offer the highest CFM performance available. Ranging anywhere from 4.8 to 8.5 HP, these positive pressure ventilation fans are recommended for the implementation of Positive Pressure Attack (PPA) in residential structures.
    • 8″ NON-PNEUMATIC WHEELS
      Extra-wide 8″ off-road non-pneumatic tires are more durable and allow easy movement up and down stairs, over curbs, and large diameter hoses, as well as through rough or muddy terrain. No brakes to forget to lock down or unlock. The positive pressure ventilation fan rests on firm, anti-vibration rubber feet for stability. “Walking” or movement of blower while in operation is eliminated. The risk of getting clothing in PPV fan blades while kneeling to set brake levers is eliminated.
    • TURBO 2000 SHROUD
      By redesigning the inward curve and front of the shroud, the Turbo 2000 increases air velocity by up to 30%. The air hitting the ventilation opening is stronger and maintains PPV pressure farther downwind.
    • DUAL “WINNING STEP”
      No levers to set or knobs to tighten when setting the angle for PPV. Foot-operated adjustment is quick, easy, and secure. The dual step allows for adjustment with either foot. Four back and one forward tilt position.
    • SAFETY GRILLE
      Front and rear safety grilles feature a continuous spun wire body with eight tie point bars that also support the “Turbo 2000” shroud integrity. Meets strict European CE Safety Standards.
    • INFORMATION/SAFETY BAR
      Features a large section of durable, reflective material to dramatically increase the visibility of the blower from the front view and a full list of instructions on the back to allow for safe and effective use.

  • Single Speed Confined Space Fan EBS-16 Firefighting Equipment Tempest Blowers

    ELECTRIC-POWERED SMOKE EJECTOR

    The Tempest EBS-16, or Box Fan, is popular for all forms of confined space ventilation.
      • Negative Pressure Ventilation (NPV)
        Negative Pressure Ventilation (NPV), as opposed to Positive Pressure Ventilation (PPV), is the method of using a fan to suck out unwanted particulates rather than blowing them out. The Tempest EBS-16’s size and design is most effective and efficient at NPV; although, PPV may still be utilized in some circumstances.
      • Light Weight
        At 47 lbs, the Tempest EBS-16 is one of the lightest weight ventilation units available. It’s reduced dimensions and frame design allow users to easily carry it to and from the work site.
      • Single Speed AOC Motor
        The Tempest EBS-16 comes standard with a single speed electric AOC motor with an output of 0.3 HP. This specific motor is matched perfectly with the fan blade’s size and pitch to produce the most effective air movement possible.
      • Formed & Welded Roll Cage Frame
        Not an ounce of Tempest’s well known reliability and durability that comes standard on every fan was sacrificed to achieve this unit’s small stature and light weight. The frame is made entirely of steel; all molded, formed and welded into a sturdy roll-cage design. Like every Tempest, it’s built to last on the job site.
      • Compact Size
        Originally intended for confined space ventilation, the EBS-16 is small enough to hang, sit or fit in a wide array of tight spaces. Whether space is a factor for you for in storing or using ventilation, our box fan will suit you perfectly.
