The FUJI ELECTRIC VFC080P-5T is a regenerative blower, listed as a Ring Compressor, delivering 0.1 hp from a single-phase 115/230V AC supply at 60 Hz. It's a compact air-moving package for applications needing moderate vacuum or pressure — think pick-and-place hold-downs, pneumatic conveying of light granules, or aeration in small tanks. Rated for 1.2 A at 115V and 0.6 A at 230V, so the current draw halves when you wire it for the higher voltage — that's the tap you want for longer cable runs or smaller branch circuits.
Performance Numbers That Matter
Maximum vacuum is 18.7 in wc (inches of water column), maximum operating pressure is 19.4 in wc — that's the differential it can sustain against a closed or restricted port. Maximum flow rate is 19.5 cfm at free delivery, so it moves air freely when the line is open. Maximum ambient temperature is 104 °F, with an air temperature rise of 54 °F above ambient — so discharge air at full load runs about 158 °F in a 104 °F room. Thermal protection is automatic reset, so it self-recovers after a thermal trip without a manual reset button.
No official successor or cross-reference is listed, so if you're replacing an older FUJI blower, match the 1-1/4 in flanged ports and the 0.1 hp / 19.5 cfm performance band. This is the part to specify into a BOM for a new build or a like-for-like swap.
