Hurricane Pro 48 Inch High Velocity Metal Drum Fan - 20,880 CFM, 2-Speed

Hurricane Pro 48 Inch Drum Fan for Greenhouses and Warehouses

This Hurricane Pro drum fan moves large volumes of air across greenhouses, warehouse grows, barns and workshops. Its blade turns at 850 RPM and is rated for 20,880 CFM. The motor runs from a standard 120V/60Hz outlet and draws 8.7 A. A two-position switch on the control box selects low or high speed. Low suits steady mixing through the day. High clears heat quickly after a warm afternoon or a long lights-on period. A single fan of this size can cover ground that would otherwise need several smaller circulation fans. The drum is metal, with a grill guarding the blade on the front and on the back. Two handles on the drum help with lifting and steering. Two wheels and two supporting feet carry the frame, so it rolls easily and then stands steady. The wheels arrive unattached and fit on with the supplied shaft and screws.

Running a High Velocity Barrel Fan Along the Bench

Set the fan on a flat, solid floor where it cannot tip over or be dragged by its cord. Plug it directly into a wall outlet, because the manual does not allow an extension cord. Keep it indoors, and never run it from a solid-state speed controller. For a long bench, park it at one end and let the stream run the length of the row. In a greenhouse, pair it with a second fan on the far side to set up a loop around the house. Keep the stream above or alongside the canopy instead of hitting plants at close range. After irrigation, point it across the floor to dry puddles and pull humidity down at plant level. Switch it off while big exhaust fans are running, so the two airflows do not fight. Unplug the fan before moving or servicing it. Wipe metal surfaces with a lightly dampened cloth, never with running water. Vacuum dust from the grill, or remove the securing screw on its edge to take the front grill off. Refit the grill and tighten the screw before running the fan again.
