Century S3-16 32 VDC Model 136

Found this at a flea market today. I am not finding much information in old forum. The only one I've found so far was 110VAC. Does any one have any more information or idea of age ?

Obviously not a skeletal, but I've never seen one. A magnet sticks to everything but the blades, so no pot metal discovered yet. It also has a 5 speed switch. Will need to set up 32 vdc power supply to test. Almost passed it up, but  the 32vdc and 5 speed switch was too intriguing since I don't have any DC fans.

Any info appreciated.

Mike

You got a "good" Century; 5 speeds and no pot metal.   Made in oscillators and non-oscillators, later models had the carrying handle.  All had cast iron motors, steel guards and brass blades.   Here is a clean stationary model I had in 60 cycles.
