This is an extremely rare Marelli fan, so rare that it is unknown and a prove that a large size Marelli Valkyrie fan exists. All researches from experts show that there are two Valkyrie versions, one version with 25 centimeters blades and the other one with 30 centimetes blades (25A and the O300). The most common of them is the 25A, because the O300 version is extremely rare… But this large version, model A 400, with 40 centimeters blades is really exceptional and unknown. Not even the most exhaustive and important collections have this extraordinary model. It makes us rewrite the history of the Marelli Valkyrie model, and forces us to incorporate a new version, the largest and rarest: the Valkyrie model A400 with 40 centimeters blades. The 25A and the O300 models, it has an unusual aluminium blades with reliefs, that have the function of producing a succession of compressed and rarefied air layers. This produces a board board and light stream of air, eliminating the annoying and harmful sensation of a localized jet directed towards a person. The reliefs also stiffen the blade and the reduced vibrations make the fan quieter. So we are therefore in the presence of a revealing model, the Marelli Valkyrie A400. A really exceptional piece for demanding collectors, even unknown for the experts. This fan is in original condition, as i found, and cables are aged. However it has been oiled and it is in perfect working order (speed selector and oscillation system are working too). All parts are original (i only found a screw for the cage that is not original). All defects not mentioned but visible in the pictures will be considered as described. If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your visit.
