Slim fan keeps electrical cabinets cool
Speed controllable fan, designed for applications where space is at a premium, produces a maximum flow rate of 560 ft3/min and a static pressure of 3.1in SWG.
A new speed controllable fan, designed for applications where space is at a premium, has been added to the 'SlimLine' range of fans from Air Control Industries of Chard. Developed originally for vending machines, but has since proven ideal for control cabinets and similar applications, the new 'VBL9/9' fan produces a maximum flow rate of 560 CFM and a static pressure of 3.1 In SWG. It is available in 230V and 115V versions so can be designed in for equipment that is intended either for home or export markets.
In addition, it has a demountable inlet plate that facilitates integration of the fan into customer-made inlet arrangements.
Like other products in the ACI SlimLine range, the VBL9/9 features a precision, gravity-die-cast impeller scroll that results in a slim profile which allows flush mounting of the fan on the inlet or outlet by means of tapped holes.
The scroll impeller is also light in weight and quieter than conventional sheet metal fabrications.
Common features across the SlimLine range include an external rotor motor built into the fan plus fully integrated bearings; an assembly that helps to shorten the fan, permits precision balancing and achieves efficient cooling being located directly in the centre of the air stream generated, which enhances the unit's longevity.
In addition to simple voltage regulation speed control, the SlimLine range can also be supplied with an optional DC control board for hook up to either PLC or PWM controllers.
