Pfannenberg PF 67000 SL 400V IP55 Slim Filterfan

PF 67000 SL 400V IP55 filterfan: decoded article 11677023055

The PF 67000 SL 400V IP55 is a installation size 6 slim-line filterfan for 400 V and 460 V supplies from Pfannenberg, intended to move cabinet-external air through a filter mat and into an electrical enclosure. It is built into a door or side panel cut-out and removes heat by exchanging the warm enclosure air for cooler ambient air, so it only works when the surrounding air is cooler than the maximum acceptable temperature inside the cabinet.

The model name decodes as follows: PF is the filterfan family, 67000 identifies installation size 6 (the cut-out and airflow class), 400 V AC is the supply voltage and IP55 is the protection class of the filterfan face. The full order number for this exact variant is 11677023055. This slim-line size-6 unit delivers 705 to 725 m³/h, about 40 % more airflow than the PF 65000, while the installation depth is reduced to 127.3 mm.

Technical specifications of the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55

Values are from the product page for article 11677023055 and the series sheet. The product page and the sheet differ in how the terminal type is described, so the connection style is not stated here; confirm it in the manual.

How the PF 67000 SL 400V filterfan works

The slim design matters where the door sits near internal equipment. Compared with the 150 mm installation depth of the PF 65000 it frees more than 20 mm inside the enclosure, although the housing is still 3.85 kg and carries a larger motor.

In the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55, air enters through the louvred front cover, passes through the filter mat and is pushed into the enclosure by a single axial fan. Warm air leaves the cabinet through a second opening, usually fitted with a matching exhaust filter, so that dust cannot enter through the outlet either. The louvres are shaped to give a high airflow for the size of the housing and to keep splash water and falling debris away from the filter mat.

Because the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55 only moves air, the achievable cooling depends on the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the enclosure and on the pressure drop of the filters and any rainhood. A thermostat is normally used to switch the fan on at a set cabinet temperature, which saves power and extends filter life.

Fit in the system and related Pfannenberg parts

It is available in three supply options, 400 / 460 V, 230 V and 115 V, which are the articles 11677023055, 11677103055 and 11677153055 respectively.

The same family covers installation sizes 1 to 6, with sibling models such as PF 11000, PF 22000, PF 32000, PF 42500, PF 43000, PF 65000 and the slim PF 67000 SL. The exhaust counterpart carries the PFA prefix and shares the cut-out, so a filterfan and an exhaust filter of the same size can be combined for forced circulation.

• Exhaust filter: article 11760003055
• Spare filter mats, pack of 5: article 18611600037
• Thermostat: article 17121000000; hygrostat: article 17207000000
• Rainhood in stainless steel: article 18102000020

Selection and ordering checklist for the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55

Before ordering the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55, confirm that the following points are settled so the correct variant is quoted:

• Cabinet heat load in watts and the permitted internal temperature
• Highest outdoor or room air temperature; a filterfan only cools when ambient is below the enclosure limit
• Supply: 400 / 460 V AC (230 V and 115 V articles also exist); other voltages carry other article numbers
• Cut-out of 292 mm x 292 mm and the installation depth behind the panel
• Whether the low installation depth of 127.3 mm is needed compared with the PF 65000

Do not size on the free-flow value alone. With a rainhood and an exhaust filter the net airflow can be much lower, so use the filtered data of 530 to 580 m³/h for design.

Installation, commissioning and maintenance of the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55

Installing the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55 uses a cut-out in the cabinet wall and the tool-free four-corner fastening of the Pfannenberg filterfan. A poured foam seal on the frame is pressed against the panel, which keeps the stated protection class intact without a separate gasket. Mount the fan so that the airflow is from outside to inside and place the exhaust outlet as far from the inlet as practical, ideally at the opposite side and higher up, so warm air rises out of the enclosure.

Connect the PF 67000 SL 400V IP55 supply with the fuse stated in the data table and protect the circuit as described in the manual. For commissioning, run the fan for several minutes and confirm direction of air movement at the louvres, then check the enclosure temperature under real load.

• Inspect the filter mat at each service visit and replace it when visibly loaded; spare mats come in packs of five
• Verify that the exhaust opening is clear and that cables do not obstruct the louvres
• Replace the fluted filter on a schedule matched to dust loading; at 725 m³/h the unit loads filters quickly in sandy air

The 400 / 460 V supply fits sites with three-phase auxiliary circuits, for example large panels at compressor stations, pump skids and desalination pumping halls.

Typical applications in Oman and the GCC

Because the unit is a heavier, high-flow fan, plan for adequate support of the door and check for vibration at the cabinet frame after commissioning.

Across the region, filterfans are used on control panels in oil and gas facilities, power stations and substations, desalination plants and petrochemical sites, where cabinets sit in electrical rooms or outdoor kiosks. Ambient temperatures above +40 °C for much of the year, fine sand and high humidity near the coast mean that the filter mat class, the protection class and the thermal margin should be checked rather than assumed. Where outdoor ambient air can approach the allowed enclosure temperature, a cooling unit or heat exchanger is the better choice than a filterfan.
