Information about the device

Device description
The axial fans TTV 4500 / TTV 4500 HP / TTV 7000 were designed for a very high air flow; the TTV 4500 HP was additionally designed for particularly high air pressure even over long air transport distances.
The device is rated with IP55 type of protection and is thus suitable for application both inside rooms and outdoors.
The fan speed can be set to one of 3 stages.
Depending on the type, the devices can be expanded with a range of accessories. For example, one or two hose adapters may be used for connecting air transport hoses and/or dust bags. Furthermore, some device sizes allow the connection of a combination distributor e. g. for air distribution with up to eight hoses.
