Middle Atlantic 5-FAN-K Low-Profile Dual Fan Kit for SLIM 5 Series Racks
Overview
The Middle Atlantic 5-FAN-K installs two 4.5-inch low-profile fans into Middle Atlantic SLIM 5 series enclosures, delivering a combined 114 CFM of active airflow to keep heat-generating AV and security equipment within safe operating thresholds. At just 1.5 inches deep, the 5-FAN-K is engineered specifically for shallow rack deployments where standard fan trays physically won't fit. If you're running amplifiers, switchers, or recorder hardware in a SLIM 5 cabinet and passive venting isn't keeping temps in check, this is the direct-fit solution — no modification required. The kit draws from a standard 120 VAC feed, so no special power conditioning is needed.
Compatibility
The 5-FAN-K is designed exclusively for the Middle Atlantic SLIM 5 series rack enclosures. It is not a universal fan tray — do not attempt to fit it in standard-depth or non-SLIM 5 Middle Atlantic cabinets, as the mounting geometry and depth profile are specific to that series. Verify your enclosure model against the SLIM 5 product family before ordering. Available for domestic US shipments only; not configured for international voltage or distribution.
Installation Notes
The 5-FAN-K runs on 120 VAC and ships with the power cord and all required mounting hardware included — no sourcing separate fasteners or adapter cables. The 1.5-inch depth leaves minimal clearance margin in tight SLIM 5 bays, so confirm rear cable management won't obstruct airflow path post-install. Both fans are active (powered) components; verify your enclosure's internal power strip or outlet can support the additional load before commissioning.
