 Torit Backward Inclined Fan, TBI-3 through 30

 2

Description

Torit Backward Inclined (TBI) Fans provide a convenient, 

cost-effective method of integrating a high efficiency fan 

with a Donaldson

®

 Torit

®

 dust collector. The TBI mounts 

directly to the clean-air outlet of the dust collector, 

eliminating costly transition ducts, and reducing the 

footprint of the system. 

Operation

The TBI Fans feature a backward inclined fan wheel 

which provides high efficiency operation. It also has 

direct drive operation to eliminate maintenance of fan 

bearings and belts. TBI Fans have computer balanced 

fan and motor assemblies to ensure vibration-free 

operation. When mounted to a Donaldson Torit Dust 

collector, the fan is designed to pull air through the 

collector to be filtered. Cleaned air exits the collector via 

the outlet of the TBI Fan.

Inspection on Arrival

8.  Check for hardware that may have loosened during 

shipping.

9.  Use caution removing temporary covers.

moving parts.
