The TYPHOON 18H5 positive-pressure fan is a high-performance solution designed for smoke extraction and rapid ventilation of buildings and hard-to-access spaces. Equipped with a 5 CH Honda GX160 internal combustion engine, it operates completely independently, without relying on an electrical power supply or a water supply system.
Its compact design makes it particularly well-suited for operations requiring rapid deployment in homes, stairwells, narrow hallways, or utility rooms. Mobile, self-contained, and easy to position, it meets the needs of fire departments, emergency response teams, and industrial operators.
A premium solution for rapid response and narrow access points
Mounted on wheels, the TYPHOON 18H5 can be quickly deployed in the field and easily positioned in front of a door, bay window, or ventilation opening. Its compact size makes it easy to use in environments where larger fans are difficult to move or install.
Its 18" / 457 mm size, compliant with the DIN 14963-TM standard —size class 1—delivers a nominal airflow of 16,000 m³/h. Depending on the installation conditions and the configuration of the opening, the actual airflow rate can reach up to 50,000 m³/h.
A combustion engine for fully autonomous operation
Unlike an electric or hydraulic fan, this model has its own power source. Its Honda GX160 internal combustion engine allows it to operate at sites without an electrical outlet, a generator, or a suitable water supply.
Its air-cooled four-stroke engine delivers 5 CH of power and is started using a manual recoil starter. Weighing 31 kg and mounted on wheels, the fan remains highly maneuverable for rapid deployments and on-site movement.

FAQ – TYPHOON 18H5 Positive Pressure Fan
Why choose a compact thermal fan for rapid response operations?
A compact thermal fan can be deployed without an electrical power supply or hydraulic connection. It is particularly well-suited for emergency operations, hard-to-access buildings, and sites without an immediately available power source.
What is the difference between the TYPHOON 18H5 and the TYPHOON 30H13?
The TYPHOON 18H5 prioritizes compactness and portability for operations in residential buildings and narrow access points. The TYPHOON 30H13 is a higher-capacity model designed for hangars, warehouses, parking garages, and large-volume industrial buildings.
Is the 18" model suitable for stairwells and narrow passageways?
Yes. Its 18" diameter and compact chassis make it easy to maneuver in areas where space is limited. However, when using it, you must take into account the width of access points, obstacles, and handling conditions on-site.
What are the main advantages for an emergency response team?
This fan combines energy autonomy, a compact design, and rapid deployment. It is an ideal solution for teams seeking mobile equipment that is independent of on-site infrastructure and suited for routine smoke extraction operations.
