The Rittal SK 3172.105 is a replacement chopped-fibre filter mat designed for Rittal SK 3240 and SK 3241 fan-and-filter units. Manufactured from chemical fibres with a progressive structure, it provides effective filtration of airborne contamination to help protect sensitive electrical and electronic components inside industrial enclosures.
The filter features an open structure on the dust-laden air side and a closed structure on the clean-air side, allowing reliable filtration of virtually all types of dust with particle sizes from approximately 10 µm. It is classified as G3 to DIN EN 779 and ISO Coarse 50% to DIN EN ISO 16890, making it suitable for routine enclosure ventilation and climate-control applications.
Measuring 221 × 221 × 17 mm, the SK 3172.105 is specifically designed for compatible Rittal SK 3240 and SK 3241 fan-and-filter units. The filter material is temperature-resistant to 100 °C and self-extinguishing to category F1 according to DIN 53 438. SK 3172.105 is supplied as a convenient dispenser pack containing 50 filter mats.
Fan-and-filter units use ambient air to remove excess heat from electrical enclosures, making effective filtration important where airborne dust could otherwise enter and accumulate on electrical or electronic components. The Rittal SK 3172.105 uses a progressive chopped-fibre structure to capture contamination while allowing cooling air to pass through the ventilation system.
Regular replacement of the filter mat helps maintain airflow and cooling performance while reducing contamination inside the enclosure. Rittal specifies original filter mats to maintain the intended performance, protection category and equipment approvals of compatible units. The SK 3172.105 is not suitable for use with EMC fan-and-filter units.
