Description
The Arieltech FTEC32 Series Exhaust Filter (Model: FTEC32L5Z) is an engineered 12-inch exhaust filter unit designed to work in tandem with forced-convection fan systems to maintain optimal airflow and thermal regulation inside electrical enclosures and control panels. Built with a robust, UV-resistant, flame-retardant plastic housing (UL 94-V0) in RAL 7035 Light Gray, this unit protects internal electrical and electronic components from overheating while ensuring high-integrity environmental sealing.
Featuring a snap-in mounting design that installs securely without tools or screws, the FTEC32 Series features a continuous polyurethane sealing gasket and a washable, reusable filter mat. Depending on the filter mat grade utilized, it achieves IP54 (G3 mat) or IP55 (G4 mat) protection, alongside a Type 12 and Type 3R NEMA rating—providing reliable outdoor and indoor protection without requiring an external rain hood.
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.
- Certified Safety: Fully backed by UL, cUL, CSA, CSAus, and CE compliance standards.
