Dry Hay and Biomass with Adjustable Air

Karl Barth AG Ventomat Typ SE-1-100-4p

Dry hay, biomass or a drying container with an air volume you set yourself, instead of running a fan flat out and paying for it.

This Karl Barth AG Ventomat SE-1-100-4p was bought in December 2025 and used for only approx. four months. It runs perfectly and comes as a complete working setup, not just the fan: factory-configured 5.5 kW Invertek Optidrive E3 frequency inverter with disconnect switch, duct cone and reduction, plus a free 10m Ø400mm fabric hose. New purchase price approx. CHF 8,507.

Only one available - sold as one complete set with the inverter, ducting accessories and hose. Once sold, it's gone.
Best for: hay drying, biomass drying, drying containers and agricultural ventilation where you want to control air volume rather than run flat out.
Not suitable for: corrosive or heavily dust-laden air streams, or ATEX zones unless independently verified.

What the specs mean in practice:
• 5.5 kW motor, 4 kW rated fan output - sized for continuous hay/biomass drying, not short bursts
• Factory-configured Invertek Optidrive E3 inverter - set air volume to the crop and its moisture, cutting energy use
• Inverter in IP66/NEMA4X with disconnect switch - mounts in a dusty barn without a separate control cabinet
• Duct cone 222/563 to D400mm and D750/D600mm reduction - connects to existing ducting, no custom fabrication
• 10m Ø400mm flexible fabric hose included - place the fan where it fits, duct air where needed
• Painted sheet metal, single-suction Swiss build (Karl Barth AG) - serviceable and supported locally

Complete package includes: Ventomat fan, Invertek Optidrive E3 5.5kW inverter with disconnect switch, duct cone 222/563 to D400, duct reduction D750/D600 with flange ring, and a 10m Ø400mm fabric hose at no extra charge. Buying/configuring the inverter alone is a substantial separate cost.
