Why Choose the Rittal SK3238.025 Pleated Filter?

The Rittal SK3238.025 is a high-quality IP55 pleated filter designed for compatible Rittal 3238.7xx fan-and-filter units and 3238.3xx outlet filters. Its advanced pleated construction provides improved filtration while maintaining a high volumetric airflow, helping industrial enclosure ventilation systems operate efficiently.

Compared with conventional chopped-fibre filter mats, Rittal's pleated filter technology allows a significant increase in airflow. This can improve the performance of compatible fan-and-filter equipment while helping reduce energy consumption. Improved filtration also means less dust reaches the enclosure interior, supporting reliable operation of sensitive electrical and electronic components.

The SK3238.025 measures 114 × 114 × 14 mm (W × H × D) and uses a polyester-based pleated filter with meltblown polycarbonate together with a 100% polyester absorber mat. When installed in a compatible fan-and-filter unit or outlet filter, it provides IP55 protection according to IEC 60529 and is supplied in packs of five.

Key Advantages

  • High-quality pleated filter technology for industrial enclosure ventilation.
  • Designed for compatible 3238.7xx fan-and-filter units and 3238.3xx outlet filters.
  • Provides IP55 protection when installed in the appropriate fan-and-filter unit or outlet filter.
  • Higher volumetric airflow compared with conventional chopped-fibre filter mats.
  • Improved airflow can increase equipment performance and help reduce energy consumption.
  • Enhanced filtration helps reduce dust accumulation inside the enclosure or ventilation unit.
  • Longer service intervals can help reduce routine maintenance requirements and associated costs.
  • Compact 114 × 114 × 14 mm format for direct integration with compatible equipment.

Enhanced Filtration for Enclosure Ventilation

Efficient forced-air cooling depends on maintaining sufficient airflow while preventing excessive dust from entering the electrical enclosure. The pleated structure of the Rittal SK3238.025 increases the available filtration surface and supports a higher volumetric airflow than conventional chopped-fibre filter mats, helping compatible fan-and-filter units maintain effective enclosure ventilation.

Improved filtration also reduces the amount of dust reaching PLCs, drives, power supplies and other sensitive components. By helping maintain cleaner enclosure conditions and extending filter service intervals, the SK3238.025 provides a practical upgrade for compatible Rittal 3238-series ventilation systems where IP55 protection is required.

Typical Applications

  • Rittal 3238.7xx fan-and-filter units.
  • Rittal 3238.3xx outlet filters.
  • Industrial electrical control cabinets.
  • PLC and automation enclosures.
  • Machine control panels.
  • Motor control and power distribution cabinets.
  • Manufacturing and process automation equipment.
  • Enclosures requiring IP55 filtered forced-air ventilation.
