Application photos show vari- ous designs being used to venuiate confined spaces, purge vessels of fumes, exhaust welding fumes and to cool overheated equipment. Flow diagrams illustrate dif- ferent methods to ventilate tanks. Performance tables show high static pressure capabilities of ba- sic models and capacities of var- ious designs through different lengths of noncollapsible tubing. Dimensional tables highlight their compact size which make Vano ventilators ideal for use in restricted and confined areas. Di- mensions of tripod-mounted units are shown in a separate chart.
