apraNET 1U Rack Fan Unit with 3 Fans, 230V, 360 m³/h, Black

In a busy server room, heat is the silent enemy. The apraNET 1U Rack Fan Unit mounts directly into a standard 19-inch rack, pulling hot air away from critical equipment. Three 120 mm fans work together to move up to 360 m³/h of air, keeping switches, routers, and servers within safe operating temperatures. The front panel includes a power switch for quick control, and the 2 m power cable with IEC C14 connector plugs into standard rack PDUs.

Good to know

Installation is straightforward: slide the unit into a free 1U slot and secure it with the included mounting hardware (if provided). The IEC C14 inlet is compatible with standard power cords. Ensure the rack has adequate ventilation and that the fan direction is oriented to exhaust hot air from the cabinet. Regular cleaning of the fan blades is recommended to maintain airflow.
