Durable Materials & Construction
The Plastec 20 Series Blower - XP is engineered with high-quality, corrosion-resistant polypropylene, a material specifically chosen for its exceptional durability, chemical resistance, and lightweight strength. Unlike traditional metal fans, polypropylene construction ensures the blower can withstand harsh environments where exposure to moisture, salt air, or corrosive fumes is common. Its robust design delivers long-lasting performance while reducing the risk of wear, rust, or material degradation, resulting in minimal maintenance and a reliable service life even under demanding conditions. The advanced forward curve impeller design maximizes airflow efficiency and pressure performance, while the direct drive system eliminates belt slippage and reduces maintenance needs.
Built for continuous operation, the Plastec 20 Series Blower - XP is a cost-effective solution for facilities seeking a dependable blower that performs consistently in challenging environments.
Suitable Applications for Plastec 20 Series Blower - XP
Laboratory hoods: Designed to exhaust corrosive fumes from chemistry, biology, and research laboratory environments.
Chemical facilities: Ideal for venting process areas or storage rooms in industrial plants and chemical manufacturing sites.
Pharmaceutical and medical production: Used in facilities handling aggressive air contaminants during pharmaceutical or medical manufacturing.
Water and wastewater treatment: Deployed in sewage and water treatment plants to manage harsh gases and corrosive emissions.
Marine and coastal environments: Suited for installations in maritime or coastal areas exposed to saline air and corrosion stress.
Educational and research institutions: Applied in universities, research institutes, and teaching labs where chemical resistance is critical.
Industrial and petroleum storage: Effective for removing corrosive gases and acid vapors in industrial, chemical, or petroleum storage applications.

No, the motor is permanently sealed and does not require lubrication.
What makes the Plastec 20 blower different from regular metal fans?
The Plastec 20 is made with heavy-duty polypropylene that won’t rust or corrode like metal. It’s designed to last longer in tough environments where chemicals or moisture would damage metal fans.
Can I use the blower outdoors or in damp areas?
Yes, it can be used outdoors if it’s protected with weather covers or drip shields. The polypropylene body resists moisture and sunlight, but avoid spraying water directly into the motor or electrical parts.
Is the Plastec 20 blower noisy when running?
Not at all. Its forward curve impeller and direct-drive motor keep noise levels low. Under normal use, sound levels can range from 40 dBA at 5 feet, which is fairly quiet for this type of blower. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. Thanks.
