Leader 18" PPV Fan
Many times at the fire scene there is very little room for positioning the PPV fan. The partial loss of the “cone-of-air” airflow is a recurrent problem with conventional fans. Thanks to the Easy Pow’Air technology developed by LEADER our “straight stream airflow” fans offer constant efficiency between 3 and 20 feet, giving firefighters much more room to operate.
The endless different scenarios of emergency operations (basements, steps, landings, etc.) require adjustable tilt of the fan allowing direction of the air flow to maintain efficient air movement in every situation. LEADER has developed an automatic control handle allowing the fan to be set at an optimum tilt angle between +10° and +20°. The Extendable Handle is easy-to-raise with a full-width flip-up handle that quickly extends and can be operated with one hand, making transportation easier.
Large, hard-rubber solid wheels are standard and will never deflate if pierced by sharp objects. The wheels provide easy transport of the PPV Fan up and over LDH, curbs, stair/steps, and soft soil. There are no brakes to lock down as the Blower sits firmly on four, robust rubber pads and the wheels do not touch the ground until the PPV fan is tilted back for forward or backward movement.
