Belt-Drive Blowers

After fifteen years, the Tempest Belt-Driven blower is still the best for fire department applications. Offering the stability, durability, and reliability that today’s fire departments require, the Tempest belt-drive is the “Cadillac” of PPV blowers.

The belt-drive design allows the motor to be set lower in the chassis thereby lowering the center of gravity.

The belt-drive system helps to absorb engine vibration, which prevents the blower from “walking”.

The bow-frame design makes the blower easy to carry and lift.

The impeller jackshaft eliminates stress on the engine shaft, extending engine life.

The belt-and pulley system allows the blade RPM to be tuned to match the horsepower and torque of the engine.

Due to reduced airflow blockage, airflow from the face of the blower is smoother and more controllable allowing more effective PPV.

For the best combination of performance, durability, and stability, choose a belt-drive.

Direct-Drive Blowers

Tempest direct-drive blowers are designed to provide the best value for fire and industrial applications. The direct-drive design allows for a smaller package and a lighter weight unit. Vibration problems that are common to most direct-drive blowers have been virtually eliminated due to the use of higher quality, four cycle gas engines, more precisely balanced and engineered impellers and vibration absorbing, spring loaded rear “feet”.
Available in sizes from 16” to 36”, Tempest has a direct-drive blower to meet your specific needs.
