New to the Leister range of hot air blowers is the FC550 frequency converter. Easy to implement, this unit is used to vary blower speed and achieve greater efficiency. The FC550 enables the blower to turn faster than the mains supply will allow, increasing blower performance by operating at 60Hz rather than the 50Hz. It is compatible with Leister Robust, Silence and ASO blowers. Air volume changes can now be pre-programmed so that hot air can be applied within a clearly defined time window. For the rest of the time the air volume can be minimised and the heating element switched off.
The FC5500 allows smaller or fewer blowers to be used, because multiple air heaters can be connected to a single blower.
