EF500R5

Overview

The EF500R5 is a vertical filter fan from the nVent HOFFMAN EF Series, designed for rack thermal management. It operates on 230V AC at 50/60Hz. The unit provides an air flow of 480 m³/h in free air conditions and 370 m³/h when filtered. It features an IP54 protection degree and measures 320mm in height by 320mm in width.

Feature Summary

• Click-in installation system eliminates the need for screws
• Vertical design facilitates forced ventilation
• Integrated filtration maintains internal cleanliness

Applications

• Rack thermal management
• Forced ventilation in electrical enclosures
• Industrial equipment cooling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage and frequency requirements against the target application's power supply specifications. Confirm that the physical dimensions of 320mm x 320mm fit the designated mounting aperture. Ensure the IP54 rating meets the environmental protection needs of the installation site. Check compatibility with existing rack structures to validate the click-in mounting method.

Selection Notes

Select this model when screw-free installation is required to reduce assembly time. Choose based on the need for high airflow rates of 480 m³/h in unfiltered scenarios or 370 m³/h with filtration. Consider the vertical orientation constraint and the 230V AC power availability. Evaluate if the IP54 ingress protection level is sufficient for the operating environment.
