Active Cooling for NetShelter SX

The APC ACF501 is a rack-mount fan tray that installs in the roof of a NetShelter SX 600 mm enclosure to exhaust hot air. It can also be fitted in the base of wall-mounted units to reinforce bottom-to-top airflow. The tray operates from a standard 120 V AC supply at 50 Hz or 60 Hz and connects via a NEMA 5-15P plug. It provides a straightforward way to lower internal temperatures without major re-cabling.

Suited for single-rack heat loads.

This tray suits administrators running moderate workloads in a single NetShelter SX cabinet who need a simple, low-cost exhaust upgrade. It is not intended for high-density configurations that generate heat beyond the 440 CFM capacity, nor for enclosures that cannot accommodate the 2.36 in height requirement. Buyers needing redundant cooling or variable-speed control should look at other solutions.

440 CFM airflow at 51 dB(A)

The tray delivers a maximum airflow of 440 CFM while producing a maximum noise level of 51 dB(A). This single figure determines whether the unit can handle the thermal output of your installed equipment within acceptable acoustic limits. The physical footprint measures 2.36 x 22.60 x 35.00 in and weighs approximately 18.54 lb, so verify roof or base clearance before ordering.

Questions about this item

How much air does the 440 CFM rating actually move through a populated rack?

The tray delivers up to 440 cubic feet per minute, pulling cool air in from the bottom of the enclosure and exhausting it through the roof to maintain a steady bottom-to-top flow across installed equipment.

What does the NEMA 5-15P plug limit me to for power connections?

The 120 V AC, 50 or 60 Hz input uses a standard NEMA 5-15P plug, so the tray connects directly to a typical North American 15 A branch circuit or a compatible PDU outlet without special wiring.

Will the 2.36" x 22.60" x 35.00" tray fit my NetShelter SX 600mm enclosure?

Yes — the tray is designed to mount in the roof of NetShelter SX 600 mm enclosures, and wall-mount models can also accept it in the base using the same opening dimensions.
