Superior Signal 5E FLEX battery-powered smoke blower
Superior Signal’s 5E FLEX battery-powered smoke blower is designed for smoke-testing building plumbing and sewer laterals. The 5E FLEX is compatible with leading 18- to 20-volt tool batteries and, utilizing a high-quality power adapter, the blower integrates with an existing electric tool set. Additionally, it can run off any 12- to 24-volt power source— such as a car or truck battery — using the DC clips power adaptor. The 5E FLEX gently pushes smoke through the system in just a few minutes and takes only seconds to see results. While the 5E blower is popular for a variety of plumbing applications, it is also useful in testing sewer laterals, and can clearly illustrate where a fault or leak may occur on private property. The U.S.-made 5E FLEX comes with an 8-foot industrial-grade hose. Used with Superior’s 1A or 2B smoke candles, it creates 4,000 or 8,000 cubic feet of smoke, respectively. Superior’s smoke candles are also sold in SealPac cans which extend shelf life. 732-251-0800; www.superiorsignal.com/pflex
