ThinkGrow Aero-Fan V-8 8 in Inline Duct Fan. 684 CFM, 100-277V

Aero-Fan V-8 Moves 684 CFM With TrolMaster Speed Control Exhaust and intake fans run around the clock, so control and efficiency matter as much as raw airflow. The V-8 is the 8-inch model in the Aero-Fan line from TrolMaster. It moves up to 684 CFM against a maximum static pressure of 735 Pa. Peak draw is 182W at 1.8A, and the motor autosenses 100–277V at 50/60Hz. The impeller has 10 blades and fits a 200 mm (7.87 in) duct connection. Aero-Fan uses EC motors, which TrolMaster describes as more efficient and longer lasting than standard motors. The housing is rated IP44, and the fan has built-in thermal protection. It runs from -4 to 140°F, with a rated mean time to failure of 50,000 hours. The fan body measures about 12.9 × 9.57 × 7.80 in. It is certified to UL 507 and CSA C22.2 No. 60335 and carries the ETL mark. Installing an 8 Inch Inline Duct Fan The fan body releases from its frame with clips, so the bracket can be mounted first. Mark the hole positions, fasten the mounting bracket, then lock the fan body back in place. The manual calls for mounting at least seven feet above the floor. Check the airflow arrow so the fan pushes air in the right direction before connecting ducting. The tech sheet lists ECS-7 and ECS-9 cable sets in the box, though the manual lists the ECS-9 as sold separately. A Hydro-X Pro (HCS-2) can run a fan group directly over an ECS-9 connection. The FRC-1 Smart Fan Remote adds a manual knob and display, and any adjustment holds for thirty minutes before the controller resumes. The simpler FRC-2 dimmer sets group speed with a single knob. For even distribution along a bench, pair it with the AB-8 air booster and a PS-6 poly air sock. For more airflow, the V-10 is the next step up in the Aero-Fan range. The tech sheet and user manual attached below include the airflow pattern and full safety notes. Key Features 684 CFM: Up to 735 Pa static pressure for filters and long duct runs.
