For insulation contractors who need professional production capabilities in a truck-mounted setup, the Krendl 5200 offers a high-capacity solution for cellulose and fiberglass installation. While Krendl lists the Model 5200 as a diesel machine, it is also available in a PTO configuration, giving contractors another option when planning a truck-mounted insulation system.
The 5200 insulation machine combines high material output, a 70 cu. ft. hopper, and a positive displacement blower for professional insulation applications.
What Is the Krendl 5200 PTO Insulation Machine?
The Krendl 5200 is a truck-mounted blowing machine designed to process cellulose and fiberglass insulation. For contractors who prefer a PTO setup, Krendl makes the 5200 available in a PTO configuration that can be integrated into a properly equipped truck.
This gives contractors access to the production capabilities of the 5200 platform while choosing a power configuration that fits their truck setup.
Krendl 5200 Production and Capacity
The Krendl 5200 combines substantial hopper capacity with production rates designed for professional insulation crews.
According to Krendl, key 5200 specifications include:
- Up to 5,200 lbs./hr. cellulose production
- Up to 2,300 lbs./hr. fiberglass production
- 70 cu. ft. hopper capacity
- Positive displacement blower
- 250 CFM at 6 PSI
- 4-inch material outlet
- 2,292-lb. listed machine weight
- 52″W x 83″D x 83″H dimensions
Krendl bases its listed production rates on 150 feet of 4-inch hose at a 10-foot elevation. Material brand, density, and blowing conditions can affect actual production.
These capabilities make the 5200 insulation machine a strong option for contractors who need substantial material capacity and professional production.
Why Consider the Krendl 5200 PTO Option?
A PTO configuration allows the truck’s power take-off system to provide power for installed equipment. For contractors building a dedicated insulation truck, choosing the PTO version of the 5200 can help integrate the blowing machine into the vehicle’s overall equipment setup.
However, PTO compatibility should be considered when selecting the truck and planning the installation. Contractors should make sure the vehicle and equipment configuration are properly matched before building the system.
Material Handling for Cellulose and Fiberglass
The 5200 uses a positive displacement blower that delivers 250 CFM at 6 PSI, along with an 18-inch by 14-inch airlock and 4-inch outlet. These components work together to move cellulose or fiberglass through the system and hose during installation.
Krendl also offers accessories and add-on packages for the 5200, including a 44-inch hose reel, wireless remote, maintenance kit, and dense-pack equipment.
Is the Krendl 5200 PTO Insulation Machine Right for Your Operation?
Before choosing the Krendl 5200 PTO, contractors should consider:
- Typical cellulose and fiberglass installation volume
- Required production capacity
- Available truck space
- PTO and vehicle compatibility
- Hopper capacity requirements
- Hose and application setup
- Dense-pack requirements
- Optional accessories needed for the truck
Evaluating these factors can help determine whether the 5200 insulation machine fits your crew’s workload and truck configuration.
