Industrial Drum Fan for Large-Space Air Movement

The Caterpillar CF-HVD-42DC-YW is a 42-inch industrial drum fan built for high-velocity air circulation in workshops, warehouses and job sites. Its six-blade design and DC motor deliver 25,000 CFM airflow, pushing air three times farther than traditional fans. Variable speed control via rotary dial lets operators match output to the task.

25,000 CFM Capacity and Variable Speed Headroom

At maximum setting the unit moves 24,300 cubic feet of air per minute, providing strong circulation across wide floor areas. The full-range rotary dial allows precise reduction for lighter cooling or drying needs. The 25-foot cord gives placement flexibility without an extension lead, while the DC motor reduces energy draw compared to equivalent AC models.

120V Power and Mobile Frame Integration

The fan operates on standard 120V, 60Hz supply and rolls on four lockable casters for repositioning across concrete or uneven surfaces. Its 23.5 by 44 by 49.5-inch frame fits through standard doorways while the yellow housing improves visibility in busy environments. CETL certification and OSHA compliance support use on regulated job sites.

Questions about this item

Will the 42" blade and 25,000 CFM airflow overpower a smaller workshop fan I already use?

The 42-inch blade and 25,000 CFM high-velocity output move far more air than typical shop fans, so it will dominate airflow in the same space.

How can I confirm the DC motor is running at the speed I set on the rotary dial?

You will hear the motor tone change smoothly as you turn the rotary dial, and the air stream reaches the full 24,300 cubic feet per minute at the highest setting.

Does the box include the 25-foot cord and the four lockable casters, or must I buy them separately?

The 25-foot power cord and four lockable casters come installed on the unit, so nothing extra is required for basic operation.
