Middle Atlantic 50 CFM Fan Top with Controller for ERK Series Racks

The ERK-10FT-FC is a thermostatically controlled integrated fan top designed to cool Middle Atlantic ERK Series racks efficiently. It ships fully assembled and includes a 10-inch fan, protective guards, and a proportional speed controller that together extend fan life, reduce noise, save energy, and minimize dust buildup. Built for professional AV and IT environments, this fan top delivers reliable, quiet cooling precisely where you need it most.

• 50 CFM airflow delivered by a robust 10-inch fan ensures steady cooling for ERK Series racks, helping maintain optimal operating temperatures even in demanding environments.
• Thermostatically controlled operation automatically adjusts fan speed based on rack temperature, providing targeted cooling only when needed and reducing unnecessary wear.
• Proportional speed controller modulates fan speed to balance cooling performance with energy efficiency and extended fan life.
• Ships fully assembled with built-in fan guards and mounting provisions, so installation is quick and hassle-free without extra assembly.
• ETL listed for safety and compliance meaning it meets recognized safety standards for professional AV and IT installations.
