HF1316513R

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures HF1316513R is a side-mount filter fan designed for wall-mounted enclosures. It operates on 115 VAC with a current draw of 0.76/0.88 A and delivers an airflow of 149 CFM (253 m³/hr). The unit features a Click-Fit design for tool-free installation into enclosure walls and includes reverse airflow capability. It provides IP55 protection against dust and water jets, ensuring effective thermal management in industrial environments.

Feature Summary

• Click-Fit mounting system allows quick installation without tools or screws
• Reverse airflow capability enhances ventilation flexibility
• Tool-free grille access enables rapid filter replacement via finger flick
• IP55 rated construction protects internal components from environmental contaminants

Applications

• Thermal management for industrial control panels
• Enclosure cooling for automation equipment
• Dust and moisture protection for electrical housings

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage requirement of 115 VAC matches your facility's power supply before procurement. Confirm that the enclosure wall thickness accommodates the Click-Fit mounting mechanism. Ensure the required airflow capacity of 149 CFM meets the thermal load calculations for the intended application. Check for any additional certification requirements specific to your operational region.

Selection Notes

Select this model when tool-free maintenance and rapid installation are prioritized over permanent mounting solutions. The IP55 rating makes it suitable for environments where dust ingress and water spray are concerns but submersion is not expected. Consider the reverse airflow feature if standard intake configurations do not align with the enclosure's internal heat source placement or existing ducting constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the nVent Hoffman MCLF series of side-mount filter fans. These units are engineered specifically for integration into Hoffman steel enclosures. The series emphasizes ease of serviceability through its unique mounting and access designs, distinguishing it from traditional screw-mounted fans by reducing maintenance downtime and labor requirements during filter changes.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 115 VAC input, 149 CFM airflow, and IP55 rating. Verify physical dimensions to ensure compatibility with the existing enclosure cutout. Alternative models may require different mounting hardware if they lack the Click-Fit interface. Ensure the replacement maintains the reverse airflow functionality if critical to the system design.
