GBS-16 16" Smoke Ejector

The GBS-16 16" Smoke Ejector is engineered to create powerful negative pressure ventilation in confined spaces, making it the trusted choice for firefighters and emergency responders around the world. Proudly made in the USA, this compact, lightweight smoke ejector is easy to transport into tight areas while delivering the durability, reliability, and performance required for demanding emergency operations. Whether responding to structural fires, hazardous material incidents, or other high-risk scenarios, the GBS-16 provides essential ventilation support that can mean the difference between life and death.

Designed for maximum airflow and safety, the GBS-16 features a 16-inch AirFlex® fiberglass-reinforced polyamide composite impeller that maximizes air volume, velocity, and pressure. Unlike traditional metal blades, the composite impeller is engineered to disintegrate upon impact, reducing the risk of hazardous blade fragmentation. A precision-welded steel roll cage provides superior protection for the engine and shroud while increasing the strength-to-weight ratio and eliminating maintenance issues associated with loose hardware. This design ensures that the GBS-16 remains operational in the most extreme conditions, providing consistent performance without the need for frequent repairs or replacements.

Available with your choice of dependable Honda® GX Series gasoline engines in 3.5 hp or 4.8 hp configurations, the GBS-16 delivers exceptional performance for both negative and positive pressure ventilation in confined space and structural firefighting applications. The engine options provide flexibility depending on the specific needs of the operation, whether it's a rapid response to a fire or a prolonged rescue mission. With its robust construction and reliable power source, the GBS-16 is built to withstand the toughest environments and provide dependable support to first responders in critical situations.
