Dayton 1C180 Centrifugal Blower 1/125 HP 3030 RPM 115V w/ Pressure Switch

Dayton 1C180 Centrifugal Blower 1/125 HP 3030 RPM 115V w/ Pressure Switch

The Dayton 1C180 is a small centrifugal (squirrel cage) blower manufactured by Dayton Electric Mfg. Co. of Chicago. It moves air via a centrifugal impeller driven by a fractional-horsepower shaded-pole motor, and includes an Airchild PSF 100A pressure sensor that monitors airflow to detect motor failure or a clogged filter — triggering a warning when pressure drops outside the normal operating range.

Applications

Small centrifugal blowers like the Dayton 1C180 are used in HVAC systems, forced-air heating equipment, electronics cooling enclosures, laboratory instruments, and light industrial ventilation applications where a compact, low-horsepower airflow source is needed. The integrated pressure switch/sensor is a common feature in furnace and air handler applications, where loss of airflow — due to a failed motor or a blocked filter — must be detected and flagged to prevent overheating or equipment damage. Dayton Electric (a brand of W.W. Grainger) has been producing fractional-HP blowers and motors for industrial and HVAC use for decades, and the 1C180 dates from an era when flange-mounted shaded-pole blowers of this size were standard in residential and light-commercial heating systems.
