Dyson | Airblade V Hand Dryer 200-240VAC 1000W | Sprayed Nickel
The Dyson 307170-01 is a hands-under Airblade V hand dryer rated 200-240VAC and 1000W, finished in sprayed nickel. It uses the Dyson digital motor V4 to dry hands in about 12 seconds through HEPA-filtered air. The 307170-01 carries an IP24 rating and a touch-free capacitive sensor for no-contact operation.
High-traffic washrooms put constant demand on hand drying, and older warm-air units leave hands damp, which spreads germs and slows people down. Paper towels add ongoing consumable cost, bin overflow, and regular restocking for facility staff. Compact washrooms also limit how much wall space a dryer can take, so a slim 100mm projection and touch-free operation both matter for hygiene and fit.
Electrical contractors fitting out commercial washrooms need a fixture that installs once and needs minimal servicing afterwards. The 307170-01 is a hardwired appliance that fixes to a wall bracket and runs from a fused 200-240VAC supply. Regulated to 1000W, it costs up to 79% less to run than other hand dryers and cuts paper-towel spend. The 5-year warranty and HEPA-filtered airflow support the long-service, low-maintenance fit-out that commercial clients expect.
Features
- 12-second dry time — high-velocity sheets of air clear water from hands in about 12 seconds, keeping queues moving in busy washrooms.
- Dyson digital motor V4 — the brushless motor spins to 83,000 rpm and drives the airflow without carbon brushes to wear out.
- HEPA-filtered airflow — the filter captures 99.9% of bacteria and viruses from washroom air, so hands dry with filtered air rather than dirty air.
- 79 dB sound level — the 307170-01 runs about 35% quieter than the model it replaces, measured at 1 metre and regulated to 1000W.
- Lower running cost — costs up to 79% less to run than other hand dryers and up to 99% less than single-use paper towels.
- Touch-free activation — a capacitive proximity sensor starts the airflow without contact, cutting shared touch points in the washroom.
- Slim 100mm projection — the 307170-01 sits just 100mm off the wall, suiting compact and disabled-access washrooms with tight circulation space.
- Sprayed nickel housing — the ABS/PBT body carries a sprayed nickel finish with an antibacterial additive in the coating.
- Bracket mounting — the unit fixes to a wall backplate and hardwires to a 200-240VAC supply, so it mounts and demounts without rewiring the point.
- Low standby draw — standby power sits under 0.5W between uses, holding idle consumption low across the day.
- IP24 rated for indoor use — protected against splashing water for washroom mounting, but not rated for outdoor, hose-down, or submerged locations.
Where to use
- Commercial office washrooms — the 307170-01 suits staff and visitor washrooms where fast, low-maintenance drying reduces consumable restocking.
- Hospitality and food venues — cafes, restaurants, and bars use the Airblade V for quick hand drying that keeps patron washrooms moving during peak trade.
- Retail and shopping centres — high-traffic public washrooms benefit from a 12-second dry time and HEPA-filtered air across constant daily use.
- Schools and education — the touch-free sensor and sealed housing suit student washrooms where hygiene and hard use both count.
- Healthcare and clinics — filtered airflow and a no-contact start support hand-hygiene practice in patient and public washrooms.
- Gyms and leisure centres — the 307170-01 handles frequent use in change-room and pool-adjacent washrooms within its indoor IP24 rating.
- Disabled-access washrooms — the slim 100mm projection helps meet clearance requirements in accessible washroom layouts.
The 307170-01 carries an IP24 rating for indoor washroom use and is not rated for outdoor installation or hose-down wash areas. It is a hardwired appliance for a fixed 200-240VAC supply, so it is not a plug-in unit and should not be fitted where only a general power outlet is available. Keep it clear of direct water jets and submersion.
