The ventilation fans are designed with performance features for a wide variety of applications and industries, such as general construction, demolition, oil and gas and other non-hazardous industrial work environments.
General Equipment Co. introduced two new models in the TEMP-BUST-R Ventilation Fan Line: the 30-in. (762 mm) diameter EBF30 and the 36-in. (914.4 mm) diameter EBF36. These drum-style fans feature direct-drive, variable-speed motors and are built to withstand rugged environments. They also are designed with performance features for a wide variety of applications and industries, such as general construction, demolition, oil and gas and other non-hazardous industrial work environments.

The EBF30 is powered by a 0.5 hp, 115V AC, 60 Hz electric motor and includes three fan speeds delivering between 4,200 to 6,000 cfm of output. The larger EBF36 uses a 0.4 hp, 115V AC, 60 Hz three-speed electric motor and can produce between 9,200 and 11,200 cfm. Both units feature enclosures constructed of lightweight, double-walled, high-density polyethylene that are UV-resistant and corrosion-proof. Combined with aluminum blades, steel hubs and integral powder-coated steel-wire safety screens, the fans are built to endure the rigors of jobsites.
Both fans include unique features. One of these is the integral GripStop feature, which uses a rigid steel support bracket with poly surface grips to help keep the fan in place during operation and prevent movement on unlevel surfaces and inclines. Furthermore, the blade assembly is precision balanced to reduce vibration, which also decreases unintended movement in addition to minimizing sound.
One of the common challenges with traditional drum fans is transport and storage of multiple units. TEMP-BUST-R fans solve this issue with a compact design that allows multiple fans to be stacked horizontally on a pallet for transport or storage. Whereas only one traditional drum fan typically can be stored on a standard pallet, seven of the EBF30 or six of the EBF36 can be stacked on one pallet using the built-in retention straps. Four black poly feet located close to each corner of the fan face fit into recesses on the back of another fan to prevent the units from sliding when stacked. Furthermore, these retention straps and poly feet can be used to connect two same-size fans together – front to back – to increase the cfm flow rate.
Railway Vehicle Self-Steering Bogie TEMP-BUST-R fans are both ETL and CE certified. Other standard features include integral handles and large, 6-in. (152.4 mm) diameter wheels for mobility. Flip-N-Store storage offers a self-contained cord management solution.
