LEADER ventilation

Our blower fans are split into 4 different categories: Petrol-Driven fans,  Electric fans, Hydraulic fans, Large Flow ventilators. LEADER blower fans are adapted to all types of Positive Pressure Ventilation : offensive, defensive and combinated fire ventilation LEADER HAS DEVELOPED EASY POW’AIR TECHNOLOGY: A POWERFUL, CONCENTRATED JET OF AIR: A LEADER INNOVATION The speed and concentrated shape of the Easy Pow’Air jet entrains surrounding air, thereby increasing the fan’s flow rate. CREATES SPACE FOR RESPONSE TEAMS WORKING AROUND DOORS The force and stability of the jet gives constant and optimal efficiency from 2 to 6 m between fan and opening.This creates valuable space for interventions teams working in /around the entrance. The fans can also be positioned as close as 0.90 m. The increased distance reduces noise levels for responders. SIMPLE SET-UP Automatic +10° tilt: when raised, the lifting handle automatically positions the fan at its optimal angle of tilt. Fine adjustment of the tilt from +10° to +20° is also possible. EASY TO VENTILATE UP ENTRANCE STEPS The ability to withdraw the apparatus and tilt it to its maximum angle makes ventilation possible in these situations: raised doors and windows, entrance steps, landings, etc. Ventilation on a slope: Its optional prop allows the fan to be aimed down at an angle of -10°. Very useful for basement work. EXTENDED APPLICATIONS USING ACCESSORIES Blowing ducts, extraction ducts, high-expansion foam adaptor, mister, etc. These options increase the number of ways a fan can be used and so circumvent the constraints of a given operation. THE NEW NEO CONCEPT FOR EVEN MORE EFFICIENT LEADER FANS! Drawing on Easy Pow’Air technology, LEADER’s engineers have developed the NEO concept: an optimal combination of GRILLE, PROPELLER and SHROUD The synergy between their technology and their aeraulic design significantly boosts the performance of the 420 mm diameter petrol-driven, electric, and water-driven fans of the LEADER range. Up to 20% greater flow rate, for unrivalled power in their category! An operational advantage for the firefighter: Set up compact, lightweight fans with outputs that were previously deliverable only by higher category fans. VERIFIED PERFORMANCE LEADER has its own test center with an instrumented “test house” including a dedicated room for measuring flow rates and pressures to standard AMCA 240-06. To allow for the variability of real life situations, the test house incorporates multiple features allowing fans to be tested and compared. This installation is indispensable to our R&D department for testing and developing innovations to LEADER fans and maximizing their performance. The test house also allows us to demonstrate to customers and partners the efficiency of our fans and the firefighting benefits of controlling ventilation.

Coltraco

Backround & History We are the OEM of Portalevel™ and Portascanner™ and have been for over 20 years. We have supplied over 15,000 units to customers in 104 countries. These are the basis for becoming the technology manufacturer that we are today manufacturing 14 systems and products. In our niche field of non-invasive, portable and ultrasonic liquid level measurement, we are the world leaders. The business commenced with the development of a portable ultrasonic liquid level indicator for the UK Government Atomic Energy Research Laboratory at Harwell, and was undertaken by Mr Eric Charlton Hunter in 1987, who had previously worked at the Admiralty Research Laboratory and prior to that specialized in Sonar in the Royal Navy Submarine Service. This was called the Portalevel™. The work to establish a portable unit took over 3 years, and was accelerated both by users reluctance to continue to employ radioactive isotope technology because of licensing, transportation and storage restrictions, and by operators who had a personal disinclination to use radioactive technology. Coupled to this, in 1986 the Montreal Protocol was developed to control the use of CFC’s, and in that the company began to receive various UK and USA Government requests to aid their monitoring. Supported by some of the world’s largest fire and marine servicing companies, the 1st production unit was released in 1990.   Company Address: 46 Mount Street, Mayfair, London W1K 2SA, United Kingdom Telephone: +44 2076 298 475 Website: www.coltraco.com
