NVENT HOFFMAN SCO_FAN291_GP2 Filter fan 291 x 291mm
nVent HOFFMAN SCO_FAN291_GP2 is a 291 x 291 mm stainless steel enclosure filter fan designed to provide filtered forced-air ventilation for industrial electrical and automation cabinets.
Why Choose the nVent HOFFMAN SCO_FAN291_GP2 Filter Fan?
The nVent HOFFMAN SCO_FAN291_GP2 is an industrial enclosure filter fan designed to provide reliable forced-air ventilation for electrical and electronic control cabinets. Featuring a 291 × 291 mm format and a stainless steel construction, it is particularly suited to industrial enclosures where effective cooling and increased resistance to corrosion are required.
Designed for enclosure climate control, the SCO_FAN291_GP2 helps maintain suitable operating temperatures by moving ambient air through the cabinet while filtering airborne contaminants. This controlled airflow assists with dissipating heat generated by drives, PLCs, power supplies, contactors and other electrical equipment, helping improve component reliability and reduce the risk of temperature-related failures.
The GP2 version combines the large 291 × 291 mm filter fan format with stainless steel material, making it a robust choice for demanding industrial environments. It can be integrated into enclosure walls, doors and panels as part of a complete ventilation arrangement for machinery, automation and electrical control systems.

Reliable Cooling for Industrial Electrical Enclosures
Electrical and electronic components generate heat during normal operation, and excessive cabinet temperatures can shorten equipment life or cause unexpected shutdowns. Filter fans provide an effective method of managing this heat by establishing forced airflow through the enclosure and replacing warm internal air with cooler ambient air.
The stainless steel construction of the SCO_FAN291_GP2 makes it particularly suitable for industrial enclosure installations requiring a durable ventilation solution. When used with an appropriately positioned exhaust filter, the unit helps establish continuous airflow through the cabinet while filtration reduces the amount of airborne contamination reaching internal equipment.
