Dayton 6E815 air curtain blower 5900 fpm 1.5 hp three phase

Product Type and Target Application

The Dayton 6E815 is an air curtain blower assembly designed for commercial doorways up to four feet wide. It mounts at heights up to 14 ft and delivers two-speed airflow to maintain interior climate separation. The unit suits warehouses, retail entrances and food-service openings where insect and dust control are required. Its galvanised steel housing resists corrosion in demanding indoor environments.

Electrical and Mechanical Integration

The blower operates on three-phase power at 208-230/460 V AC and uses a single 1 1/2 hp motor. Overall dimensions are 35 in wide, 9 3/4 in high and 11 in deep, allowing direct mounting above standard commercial doors. No additional ductwork is needed; the unit discharges a high-velocity stream across the doorway. Two-speed operation lets staff adjust airflow to match traffic volume or seasonal conditions.

Upgrade Path and Limitations

This model replaces single-speed or lower-velocity curtain blowers that cannot cover a 4 ft opening at 14 ft mounting height. Facilities moving from unheated ambient units to a high-temperature rated assembly gain durability in heat-prone vestibules. Buyers needing wider coverage beyond 4 ft, single-phase power compatibility, or heated airflow should evaluate alternative configurations not addressed by this assembly.
