Rittal Blue e+ Filter Fans: Cool Down this Summer at LED Controls
Rittal Blue e+ filter fans provide a simple, reliable way to cool your electrical enclosures while keeping dust and contaminants at bay. Get these essential climate control solutions from Rittal Alliance Partner LED Controls today.
What is a filter fan and why is it important?
An electrical enclosure filter fan is a device fitted to the side of your enclosure which pulls cooler air from outside into the cabinet and pushes warm air out. This constant airflow helps maintain a safe temperature for the electrical components inside. The fan's built-in filter ensures that the enclosure is kept clear of dust and debris from the surrounding environment.
Temperature increases can seriously reduce the efficiency and longevity of electrical components, while dust can clog mechanical components. And both can cause overheating, short circuits, arc flash events, mechanical failure and even fire. Filter Fans help control the climate in your enclosure and avoid these problems. Rittal Blue e+ Filter Fans take that function to the next level.
What makes Rittal Blue e+ different?
Higher airflow with better filtration
Blue e+ units use a pleated filter design to increase surface area, allowing more air to pass through while still trapping fine dust.
- Up to 40% more airflow
- 2 to 3 times longer filter life
- Improved dust separation performance
Even airflow inside the enclosure
Diagonal fan technology, spreads air more evenly around the enclosure, helping avoid hotspots and improving system reliability.
Tool-free installation and maintenance
- Snap-in mounting
- Quick filter replacement via a simple opening grille
- Reversible airflow direction without tools
Variants to Suit Your Application
Rittal Blue e+ filter fans are available in AC/DC, EC and EMC variants to suit different applications. AC/DC models are the standard choice.
EC models add intelligent features including up to 60% lower energy consumption, integrated IoT connectivity, predictive maintenance, alarm monitoring and an emergency cooling function that automatically increases airflow if enclosure temperatures rise.
EMC versions are designed for applications where electromagnetic compatibility is essential, providing effective shielding against electrical interference while maintaining reliable cooling.
The Blue e+ range is available in airflow capacities from 20 to 1,160 m³/h, multiple AC and DC voltage options, a range of standard mounting cut-outs, and selected finishes in RAL 7035 and RAL 9005. Which all amounts to a versatile range of fans to fit a wide variety of enclosure sizes and cooling requirements.
