CFM values are fan blowing into the enclosure and out through an exhaust filter, which keeps the cabinet under positive pressure. Pfannenberg free-air CFM is higher and is what our product titles show. Sizes in inches. Finder CFM through an exhaust filter is from the Pfannenberg competitor comparison. Confirm the current datasheets before you release a drawing.

What to check before you swap

Finder 7F cutouts are rectangles on the larger sizes (for example 9.21 x 8.82 in on the 7F.50 4230). The Pfannenberg PF cutout is square and fits inside the short side, and the PF frame covers the long side. On the 7F.20 3100 the short side is 6.96 in and the PF cutout is 6.97 in, so open it 0.01 in. The 7F.50 4370 at 147 CFM is above the 8.78 in PF sizes, so the table points to the PF 65000 in an 11.46 in cutout. Finder does not list NEMA 3R or IP55 filter fans in this comparison. Pfannenberg PF 22000 and up come in NEMA 3R, and hold the same CFM at IP55 as at IP54.

Pfannenberg PF fans from the PF 22000 up use a fluted filter. It holds the same CFM at IP55 as at IP54, so compare the IP55 column if your spec calls for IP55. Pfannenberg NEMA 3R filter fans come in RAL 7035 light gray or black.
