NEMA 3R certified PTF 1200 offers high cooling performance for outdoor use
Pfannenberg, Inc. has announced the new NEMA 3R certified PTF 1200. This additional version provides the same dependable features of the NEMA 12 fan, with the added benefit of 3R protection. Designed to redefine cooling solutions for various industries, this industry leading high CFM top-mounted filter fan is constructed with stainless steel for outdoor use. Its compact yet powerful innovation boasts an unimpeded airflow rate of up to 589 CFM, making it a game-changer in the realm of cooling solutions.
One of the standout features of the PTF 1200 is its energy-efficient EC centrifugal fan, delivering optimum airflow and uniform temperature distribution. Its energy-efficient centrifugal fan translates to low power consumption, contributing to sustainability efforts.
The PTF 1200’s long service life is due to its EC fan, which provides a soft start and stop, reducing wear and tear on vital parts. The result is an impressive 70,000-hour average lifetime which is also complemented by the ease of filter changes, reducing maintenance costs and downtime. Filter replacements don’t require skilled labor and are quick, ensuring minimal downtime during servicing and making it an ideal choice for maintenance managers seeking efficiency.
The convenience of the unit is further elevated by its compact size, saving valuable space without compromising on cooling efficiency. Unlike traditional top mounts that often require expensive palletized shipping, the PTF 1200 ships in an easily transportable cardboard box, directly to your door, minimizing costs and delivery times.
Designed with the end-user in mind, the PTF 1200 comes with 4 mounting through holes in the cabinet. This eliminates the need for advanced cut-outs during installation, providing easy mounting options and allowing users to achieve a quick install.
The introduction of the NEMA 3R certified PTF 1200 unlocks a new configuration of filter fans for the market, addressing the unique needs of purchasing agents, electrical engineers, project managers, and maintenance managers. This top-mounted filter fan offers a higher airflow rate than side mounts, ensuring efficient heat removal and surpassing competitors with its airflow range. The industry leading airflow allows for the possibility of using a passive system in lieu of a small air conditioner, yielding substantial energy savings and reducing costs. Its ease of installation and cost-effective shipping make it an attractive solution for professionals seeking high-performance cooling solutions.
“The PTF 1200 with NEMA 3R certification offers end users a reliable, weather-resistant cooling solution, expanding options for outdoor and semi-outdoor enclosures where efficient thermal management is essential. Its top-mount design ensures optimal airflow with a best-in-class CFM fan, while safeguarding sensitive equipment from environmental elements,” says Daniel Langendorfer, Associate Product Manager.
A National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) 3R rating is a weather-resistant rating for enclosures that protects against environmental conditions. With this rating, the PTF 1200 is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and protects against elements such as falling dirt, rain, sleet, and snow, as well as accidental contact with people or objects. Other fans that are not 3R rated could expose the electronics inside the cabinet to water, ice or dirt, resulting in shorter life span or failure.
