Reliable 24 V DC Reverse Flow Ventilation for Electrical Cabinets
The Finder 7F.21.9.024.2055.0 is designed to help maintain suitable temperatures within electrical enclosures containing heat-generating equipment such as PLCs, power supplies, contactors, relays and motor controllers. Its powered ventilation system provides an effective method of moving warm air through the cabinet, reducing the risk of excessive internal temperatures.
Unlike conventional intake filter fans, the 7F.21 reverse flow configuration moves air in the opposite direction, allowing the unit to function as an exhaust fan. This provides flexibility in the positioning of cabinet ventilation openings and supports controlled airflow through suitable enclosure filtration systems.
The fan provides a nominal free-air capacity of 55 m³/h, with approximately 40 m³/h available when used with a compatible exhaust filter under the manufacturer's specified test conditions. Its replaceable G3 filter mat, IP54-rated construction and compact Size 2 housing make it suitable for industrial enclosure thermal management.
