How to Install the HF Filter Fan

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the HF filter fan into an enclosure, ensuring proper mounting and wiring.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Drill, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Cutout template

  1. Prepare the enclosure

    Apply the cutout template to the side of the enclosure where you want to install the filter fan.

  2. Cut the opening

    Cut out the hole in the enclosure using the appropriate size for your model. Deburr the cutting edge to avoid sharp edges.

  3. Insert the fan or grille

    Insert the fan or grille into the opening and push until all four corners snap and lock into place.

  4. Secure the installation

    If the enclosure material thickness is between .10 (2.5 mm) and .14 (3.5 mm), use mounting fasteners. For thickness greater than .14 (3.5 mm), mounting fasteners are required.

  5. Wire the filter fan

    Follow the wiring diagrams provided in the manual to connect the filter fan to the power supply.

  6. Verify clearance

    Ensure that the installed filter fan has a minimum clearance of 7.00 inches (178 mm) from any obstruction.
