When a plant needs constant airflow on a fixed workstation and has no floor space to give up, a wall-mounted circulator does the job a pedestal fan cannot. The Airmaster 37145 (model UP30LW16-S8) is a 30 inch heavy-duty air circulator that mounts on a wall, moves up to 8,402 CFM on high, and draws only 2.7 amps doing it. Nothing on the floor to trip over, nothing to knock over, nothing to walk off at the end of a shift.
Built for
- Production and assembly bays where a fixed airstream on a specific station beats a fan that sweeps past it every few seconds.
- Loading docks, service bays and machine shops running all shift, aimed down an aisle or at a work cell.
- Gyms, churches, schools and fitness studios, where high air volume matters but so does being able to hear an instructor.
- Facilities reclaiming floor space from portable fans and extension cords.
Why non-oscillating is the right call here
Oscillation sounds like more coverage and often delivers less. A sweeping fan gives an operator a few seconds of relief per pass, while a fixed circulator holds a continuous airstream on the person or the machine that needs it. It also removes the oscillator gearbox, which is the usual first thing to fail on an industrial fan. What is left is a totally enclosed, ball-bearing motor and a die-cast aluminum airfoil propeller built for continuous duty.
The efficiency is real rather than marketing: 8,402 CFM from 2.7 amps at 115 V works out to roughly 27 CFM per watt, which is why these get specified for fans that never get switched off. You can run several on a single 15 amp shop circuit.

Airmaster publishes no sound rating for this model, so no decibel figure is quoted here.
Frequently asked questions
Can this run continuously?
Yes. It uses a totally enclosed, ball-bearing industrial motor built for continuous duty. Airmaster offers a separate high-ambient version for genuinely hot areas, which is a different part number.
Can I mount it on a ceiling or an I-beam instead of a wall?
Not as shipped. This part number includes the wall bracket. Airmaster sells the same fan with an I-beam bracket and with a vertical bracket under different numbers, and brackets can also be bought separately.
Does it oscillate, or can oscillation be added?
No. Oscillation requires a different motor and is a separate model line.
Is it acceptable in an OSHA-inspected work area?
Airmaster states that the guards meet OSHA standards. Mounting it above head height also keeps it out of the reach zone that guard rules are written around.
How much circuit does it need?
It runs on standard 115 V single phase with the cord and plug included, at 2.7 full-load amps. Several units can share one 15 amp branch circuit.
Discount Cleaning Products carries the Airmaster heavy-duty circulator line including the pedestal, I-beam and vertical versions of this same fan, so you can match the airflow you need to the mount your building actually allows. Our US-based team can help you choose between them.
