Warranty Information
Motor WarrantyAll motors are covered by a one-year warranty from the date of shipment, provided by the motor manufacturer. If service is required during the warranty period, the motor must be taken to the nearest authorized motor service station. Failure to use an authorized service station may void the motor warranty. If you are unsure of an authorized service location, contact the factory for assistance. Installation, removal, re-installation costs, and any consequential damages are not covered.
Blower Housing Assembly WarrantyThe blower housing assembly is warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for two (2) years from the date of original shipment. Defective units or parts reported within this period may be replaced at the manufacturer’s option when returned to the factory with transportation prepaid by the sender.
ExclusionsThe following items are not covered by this warranty:
- Normal wear from heat, abrasion, or chemical exposure
- Damage from improper installation, incorrect electrical connections, or unauthorized alterations
- Damage resulting from misuse, abuse, or abnormal operating conditions
- Lack of proper maintenance
- Transportation costs to and from the factory for warranty repairs
This warranty is limited to repair or replacement of defective parts as described above. The manufacturer is not responsible for installation, removal, or re-installation costs, nor for any consequential damages resulting from product failure or improper operation.
See full warranty on Installation, Operation & Maintenance ManualDurable Materials & Construction
The Plastec 50 blower is engineered for the most demanding corrosive and industrial environments. Its entire airflow path — from the housing and impeller to all internal surfaces exposed to the airstream — is made from thick-wall, injection-molded polypropylene, giving it superior resistance to acids, salts, solvents, and chemical vapors. To defend against UV damage when installed outdoors or in exposed conditions, the polypropylene includes HALS (Hindered-Amine Light Stabilizers), which slow down photodegradation and preserve material strength over time. Plastec also offers this model with options suitable for explosion-rated or variable-speed applications via VFDs (Variable Frequency Drives), making it a robust choice in specialized industrial systems.
The Plastec 50 is an excellent fit for chemical plants, laboratories, hospitals, universities, wastewater facilities, and other settings where aggressive exhaust gases must be handled safely and reliably.
Suitable Applications for Plastec 50 Forward Curve Blower
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
