Description
ebm-papst K2E225-RA40-02 (also known as K2E225RA4002) is an industrial single-intake backward-curved RadiCal AC centrifugal blower module integrated with a rugged scroll housing and driven by the M2E068-DF external rotor motor. Operating on a 115 VAC single-phase line supply at 50/60 Hz, this 225 mm (8.86 in) aerodynamic unit delivers rated speeds up to 2700 RPM and power consumption up to 235 W. Built with fiberglass-reinforced PA plastic for both impeller and housing, the assembly incorporates dual precision ball bearings, rotor-side condensation drainage, and an internal thermal overload protector (TOP). Electrical power and run-capacitor leads are terminated via an integrated Tyco 4-pole keyed connector, ensuring reliable, continuous S1 duty across demanding thermal management environments.
Key Features
- Aerodynamic RadiCal Impeller: Optimized 7-blade backward-curved PA plastic geometry maximizes airflow efficiency while minimizing broadband acoustic emissions.
- Integrated Scroll Housing: Single-intake Polyamide housing structure ensures guided static pressure recovery and simplifies OEM mechanical installation.
- Internal Thermal Protection: Factory-wired thermal overload protector continuously shields the Class F winding from phase-fault overheating damage.
- Plug-in Connector System: Integrated Tyco 4-pole keyed plug provides secure, error-free wiring termination for rapid assembly and field maintenance.
- Industrial Reliability: Robust dual ball bearings and IP44 environmental sealing ensure dependable continuous S1 operation down to -25°C.
