Improved performance with RiCool high-capacity fan
The new Rittal RiCool III flat pack fan is a third generation high-capacity direct current fan which has been designed specifically for the extreme heat losses arising from modern electronic systems
Developed from the successful RiCool blower for CompactPCI applications, the Ricool II has 50% more throughput and almost double the static pressure at 70-75mm water, but with the same physical dimensions.
When used in two tiers at the top of an AdvancedTCA shelf, the RiCool II blowers can successfully keep the temperature within PICMG 3 guidelines, even in the event of one fan failing, and provide 200W/slot of cooling with an additional venturi induced flow for the rear transition modules.
Connected by a 30 Pin DIN 41612 connector, the radial fans have temperature and flame sensing, rotor protection, dual power input and response activation to failure signals sent by the system IPMC (Intelligent Peripheral Management Controller). Request a free brochure from Rittal ...
