Ruck 6 inch Classic Centrifugal Fan. 263 CFM, 78W, Metal Casing

What the 6 Inch Classic Centrifugal Fan Delivers This is the size most single-tent exhausts settle on. 263 CFM from a one-phase AC motor drawing 78W at 0.70A. Backward curved impeller blades in a powder-coated metal casing, 7.03 lbs, rated IPX4. It is rated from -13°F to 176°F, which is well beyond anything a grow room will do to it. Built in Germany with a three-year warranty. Placing This Inline Duct Fan in the Run Six inches with a carbon filter is the classic single-tent setup, and this handles it. Mount it at the end of the run pulling through the filter rather than pushing into it. Brackets are built into the casing, so it hangs without extra hardware. Then there is the sound. 69 dB is not quiet, and anyone putting this near a living space wants a silencer or a longer duct run. The cord is 5.5 ft. Speed control is worth understanding before wiring. The motor is voltage controllable but not suitable for solid-state controls, so an autotransformer is the safe choice. Key Features 263 CFM: Centrifugal output that holds up against a loaded carbon filter. 78W at 0.70A: Real draw at 120V, so the circuit load is easy to plan. 69 dB Maximum: Sound figure, so you can plan silencing honestly. Backward Curved Impeller: The blade form that keeps pressure up on long duct runs. Powder-Coated Metal Casing: Metal rather than plastic, and corrosion-resistant in damp air. Incorporated Mounting Brackets: Fitted to the casing, so it hangs without extra hardware. 5.5 ft Power Cord: Reaches a socket or controller without an extension in most tents. Voltage Speed Control Only: Not suitable for solid-state controllers, so use an autotransformer. 3-Year Warranty: German-built, and covered for three years.
