Tempest is known for building heavy-duty ventilation products for the fire service and we offer that same level of durability in our industrial products. Tempest industrial blowers are designed to provide the ventilation that todays contractors require, while standing up to years of use and abuse.

A Tempest Belt-Drive is the original PPV Power Blower and still the best for fire department applications. Offering the stability, durability and reliability that todays fire departments require, the Tempest Belt-Drive is the “Cadillac” of PPV blowers. Available in 18” to 27” diameter sizes, Tempest Belt-Drive blowers offer a superior combination of performance, durability and stability.

• Belt-Drive systems help absorb engine vibration, preventing the blower from “walking” during operation on smooth surfaces
• The Belt-Drive pulleys are tuned to precisely match the horsepower and torque of the engine, maximizing performance
• Belt-Drives allow the engine to be set lower in the frame, improving stability and minimizing disruption of the airflow.

Turbo 2000 Shroud
By redesigning the inward curve and the front of the shroud, the Turbo 2000 increases air velocity by up to 30%. The air hitting the ventilation opening is stronger and maintains the Tempest "cone of air" farther downwind than before.

Safety Grill
Front and rear safety grills feature a continuous spun wire with eight tie points. Meets strict European CE Safety Standards.

 

Wheels
9" pneumatic tires for heavy terrain are standard on all blowers 18" and larger. Smaller, hard wheels are standard on 12" and 16" direct-drive models.

 

AirFlex Composition Impeller
Increases performance and solves the engine blockage problem common to gas powered blowers. AirFlex's aerodynamically designed impeller creates higher pressure resulting in less distortion of the air cone, critical for effective PPV. The AirFlex is more powerful and "flexible" as it maneuvers air around the engine/motor.

Flip-up Handle
Quickly flips up or down. Makes transporting to and from the ventilation site easy. Can be released with one hand. 12" and 16" blowers feature a telescoping pull-up handle.

Tempest offers the most complete line of electric blowers for Positive Pressure Ventilation (PPV) and Negative Pressure Ventilation (NPV). Built on the same platform that made the Tempest direct-drive blowers so successful, the electric blowers are powerful, durable and versatile.

Only Tempest could turn a smoke ejector into a power blower. Featuring the AirFlex composite impeller, the Tempest EBS-16 is the most powerful 16” 1/3hp blower available. Designed to be used for both positive and negative ventilation. Ducting can be connected to the inlet or outlet with optional duct adapter ring. EBS-16 Kit available which includes Blower, Hanger Bar and Hanging Brackets

• No exhaust emissions
• Never requires “oil change”
• Designed to start and run off a standard residential 120V 20Amp receptacle w/o tripping circuit breaker
• Power supply is readily available at most work sites
