How to Install the Side-Mount Filter Fans and Grilles

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing side-mount filter fans and grilles in an enclosure, ensuring proper fit and functionality.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Drill, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Cutout template

  1. Prepare the enclosure

    Apply the cutout template to the desired location on the side of the enclosure. Ensure that all internal components are clear of the cutting area to avoid damage.

  2. Cut the opening

    Using the appropriate size cutout tool, cut the hole in the enclosure as per the template specifications. Deburr the cutting edge to prevent injury.

  3. Install the filter fan or grille

    Insert the fan or grille into the opening until all four corners snap and lock into place. If the enclosure material is thicker than 0.14 inches (3.5 mm), install mounting fasteners for secure attachment.

  4. Secure the installation

    If required, remove the grille and drill out the mounting holes in the filter housing using the specified drill bit size. Torque the fasteners to 20-25 in-lbs (2.3-2.8 Nm) for a secure fit.

  5. Wire the filter fan

    Follow the wiring diagrams provided in the manual to connect the filter fan to the power supply. Ensure all connections are secure and insulated.

  6. Verify clearance

    Check that the installed filter fan has a minimum clearance of 7.00 inches (178 mm) from any obstruction to ensure proper airflow.
