Technical specifications
Locally manufactured by Turbo Vent, this ventilator is lower in cost, yet rugged and therefore ideal for heavy-duty industrial use.
Differentiating design benefits
The Twister is available in two materials: premium quality, rust-proof aluminium; and a highly durable galvanised steel, recommended for coastal areas’ gusting winds.
Tests prove the Twister’s can withstand high-wind speeds of up to 160km per hour.
Warranty, sizes and colour options
The Twister is backed by a 5 year warranty.
It’s available in two sizes – a 500mm diameter neck and a 610mm diameter neck.
The Twister can be colour coated to match your roof.


General specifications
It was designed as a rugged, low cost solution for ventilating industrial buildings in Africa.
High quality ball bearings
Two high quality sealed bearings for long life and trouble free performance, as well as specially designed bearing housing for additional protection from heat, dirt and moisture. The bearings are widely spaced to improve performance.
The choice of galvanised mild steel or aluminium
The Twister is available in either high-quality, light-weight aluminium or in rugged galvanised mild steel. Aluminium assures a rust free life span, but a mild steel turbine will last for a long time, even in coastal regions.
Responsiveness
The Twister is particularly responsive to the slightest convection current or breeze, because the Twister has widely spaced bearings and an extensive sail area with a high number of vanes. There are 36 uniquely shaped vanes for enhanced effectiveness.
Furthermore, the aluminium version of the Twister has a particularly low inertia due to the lightness of the dome.
Waterproof and dust repellent
The vanes of the Twister are shaped to prevent rain and dust from penetrating the dome. Extra large flashing enables leak proof installation.
Maintenance free
The Twister is resistant to rust and corrosion and the bearings are lubricated with heat resistant grease and are permanently sealed.
Warranty
The Twister is backed by a five year warranty covering defective materials and manufacture
Size and colour
The Twister has a neck diameter of 500mm and it can be colour coated upon request. The Twister is available with either a 500mm or 610mm throat diameter.
