  • Regular price $242.06 USD


Manufactured in Canada, the Vortex Powerfan dryer booster kit includes a 293 CFM VTX600L inline blower, for 6 in. Dia duct, and a current sensor that will automatically turn on and off the Vortex VTX600L inline blower as required. For example, in a clothing dryer application, when the dryer is turned on, the VTX600L will automatically turn on and will stay on for 5 minutes after the dryer is turned off. This will allow the dryer to perform better and more efficiently. Both, drying time and power consumption are therefore reduced. 

 

VTX600L design features:

  • Supplied with mounting bracket for easy installation.
  • Suitable for airstream temperatures up to 140°F.
  • Aerodynamic design allowing more airflow.
  • Heavy gauge steel casing with a hammertone powder coat finish, making it more sound absorbing, durable, impact resistant and rustproof.
  • High quality maintenance-free balanced motor, making it vibration free, quieter and longer-lasting.
  • Extended collar and lip, allowing easy duct hook-up.
  • Optional speed control easing airflow adjustment, allowing better balancing of the ventilation system.
  • 293 CFM
