Dry Air Technology
Air movers live a hard life. They run for days at a time, get stacked in a ute, dragged across concrete and dropped down stairs — and when one stops it is almost never the motor. It is a switch, a capacitor or a grill that has been kicked in.
Holding those three items on a shelf is the difference between a unit back on hire tomorrow and a unit out of the fleet for a fortnight.
The range covers Dry Air Force 9 spares — the 16 inch inlet and outlet grills, the 17 inch fan blade and the two-speed rocker switch — plus the Tempest snout grill and primary inlet grill, the three-speed Typhoon switch, a single-throw rocker, and a 10 uF 450 V capacitor. It also carries the universal air mover clamp with pad spindles in standard and metric thread, the Dry Air Max Force ventilator in 50 Hz 220 V with AU plug, and the Razorback MaxxAir AAM Pro axial air mover and AVP HP12 axial ventilator.
How to choose
A unit that hums but will not spin is usually the capacitor. Before pulling a motor, test the capacitor. It is the cheapest part in the range and the most common cause of that symptom.
Count the speeds before ordering a switch. The two-speed Force 9 rocker, the three-speed Typhoon switch and the single-throw rocker look similar in a panel and are not interchangeable. Check the machine, not the shape.
Grills are structural, not cosmetic. A bent inlet grill lets the fan strike, and a damaged outlet grill changes the discharge pattern. Neither is worth running through to the end of a job.
Pad spindles come in two threads. The universal carpet clamp takes either a standard or a metric spindle. Ordering by the clamp rather than the thread is how the wrong one arrives.
Complete units are in Airmovers, in-place drying gear is in Structural & Heat Drying, switchgear across the range is in Switches, Relays & Fuses, and general spares are in Parts & Maintenance.
