Description
The Arieltech FTEC20L5X is an 8-inch enclosure filter unit designed to work in tandem with forced-convection ventilation systems or serve as an exhaust/intake filter component for electrical panels and control cabinets. As part of the FTEC 20 Series, this unit helps maintain optimal internal temperatures while protecting sensitive electrical and electronic components from heat buildup, dust, and environmental debris.
Built with a robust, UV-resistant, flame-retardant plastic housing (UL 94-V0) in RAL 7035 Light Gray, the FTEC20L5X features a continuous polyurethane sealing gasket and a washable, reusable filter mat. It achieves Type 12 and Type 3R NEMA ratings alongside IP54 (with G3 mat) or IP55 (with G4 mat) protection—delivering reliable indoor and outdoor protection without requiring an external rain hood. Its convenient snap-in mounting design allows it to install securely into panel cutouts without screws or tools.
Key Features
- NEMA 3R / Type 12 Protection: Provides heavy-duty enclosure defense against dust, dirt, and water ingress without needing an external rain hood.
- Adjustable IP Rating: Achieves IP54 protection using a standard G3 filter mat, or upgrades to IP55 using a dense G4 filter mat.
- Tool-Free Snap-In Installation: Engineered to quickly snap directly into enclosure cutouts without requiring fastening screws.
- Washable & Reusable Media: Features a cleanable filter mat to minimize long-term maintenance costs and replacement frequency.
- Durable Flame-Retardant Build: Constructed from UV-resistant, UL 94-V0 rated industrial plastic for long-term outdoor and indoor durability.
