Centrifugal Blower Fasco B47120 180 CFM 3-Speed Aluminum Steel HVAC

Description

Product Overview

The Fasco B47120 is a high‑efficiency centrifugal blower designed for demanding HVAC and material‑handling applications. Built around a robust aluminum wheel and a steel housing, the unit delivers a steady 180 CFM of airflow while maintaining thermal protection and long‑term durability. Three selectable speeds—1360 RPM, 1100 RPM, and 830 RPM—allow users to match airflow to specific load requirements, all powered by a standard 115 V, 1.95 A supply. The blower’s compact dimensions (13 × 12 × 5.5 in) and lightweight construction (8 lb) make it easy to install in tight spaces, while UL and CSA certifications provide confidence in safety and performance.

Usage

This blower excels in a variety of environments. In commercial HVAC systems, it provides reliable ventilation for office buildings, schools, and retail spaces, ensuring consistent indoor air quality. Industrial users benefit from its ability to move air in drying ovens, dust collection units, and material‑handling conveyors where precise airflow control is essential. The three‑speed configuration makes it adaptable for low‑noise operation in office settings or high‑flow demand in manufacturing plants. Because the unit runs on standard 115 V power, it integrates seamlessly with existing electrical infrastructure, reducing installation time and cost.
