The Lowell FW1-KIT is a compact, whisper-quiet cooling fan designed to provide spot cooling for compatible Lowell equipment racks. The fan mounts to notches in the ventilation openings found on most Lowell racks, providing a simple way to increase airflow around heat-generating AV, audio, network, and electronic equipment.
The FW1-KIT features a 4.7-inch fan, delivers 50 CFM of airflow, and operates at a low 28 dBA noise rating. Its cast aluminum housing features a black finish that complements professional equipment rack installations.
Different cord configurations are available, including a standard power cord, a cord without a plug for installations requiring a contractor-supplied plug, and a thermo-cord with a built-in thermostat for automatic fan operation.
Quiet Rack Cooling
The FW1-KIT provides 50 CFM of airflow while maintaining a noise rating of just 28 dBA.
This combination makes it useful for equipment racks installed in environments where additional ventilation is required without introducing excessive fan noise.
Designed for Lowell Equipment Racks
The fan is designed to mount to notches in the vents on most Lowell racks, providing straightforward installation without requiring a separate rack shelf.
Its compact housing measures approximately 4.7 inches square by 1.5 inches deep, helping conserve space inside the equipment rack.
Multiple Power Cord Options
The FW1-KIT is available with different cord configurations to accommodate installation requirements.
Options include:
-
Standard power cord
-
Cord without a plug
-
Thermo-cord with built-in thermostat
The thermostat-equipped cord allows fan operation to be controlled automatically based on temperature.
Important: The FW1-KITE version includes a cord without a plug, allowing the installing contractor to add the appropriate plug for the installation.
