Information about the device
Device description
The devices TFV 10 S/ TFV 30 S were designed for a very high
air flow rate. They may be used for drying carpets, buildings or
screed as well as for the ventilation of poorly accessible
intermediate spaces. Owing to the high air circulation, the
devices can also be used to control excessive humidity levels.
The fan is also very effective for the additional air circulation
when heating large buildings, e.g. in the months of winter.
The TFV 30 S is further equipped with a service socket, which
means that you can operate another device via the same
socket. This socket is ready for operation for as long as the
TFV 30 S is connected to the mains – it does not need to be
switched on.
Moreover, you can connect an optional three-way hose
distributor to the TFV 30 S in order to direct the air current
towards 3different locations.
The cable of this device can be wound around the cable holder
at the carrying handle.
The corners of the device are designed in a way that several
devices can be safely stacked on top of one another for space-
saving storage. Do not exceed the maximum of five stacked
devices.
In addition to all conventional ventilation tasks these turbo fans
are also suited particularly well for the quick elimination of
moisture at the underbody after driving on wet roads.
The device can be set up at different angles in order to reach
difficult corners or otherwise inaccessible hollows: 0°, 45°, 90°.
