APC by Schneider Electric Roof FAN Tray 120VAC 50/60HZ for Netshelter AV 600MM Wide - ACF505

APC by Schneider Electric ACF505 Roof Fan Tray for NetShelter AV 600mm Enclosures

Overview

The ACF505 is a 120VAC roof-mounted fan tray designed to supplement passive airflow in APC NetShelter AV enclosures. At 440 CFM, it moves enough air to manage heat loads from densely packed AV or networking gear — situations where the enclosure's natural convection is insufficient and equipment thermals become a reliability concern. If you're loading a NetShelter AV with PoE switches, media converters, or IP video infrastructure that runs continuously, active top-exhaust ventilation is the practical answer. The ACF505 mounts at the roof of the enclosure and exhausts heated air upward, working with the natural hot-air-rises principle to extend equipment life and reduce ambient heat buildup in the rack space.

Compatibility

The ACF505 is designed for the APC by Schneider Electric NetShelter AV series enclosures in the 600mm wide form factor. Verify your specific NetShelter AV model is 600mm wide before ordering — APC also produces 500mm wide AV enclosures that require a different fan tray SKU. This unit is not compatible with NetShelter SX, VX, or CX families, which use different roof panel configurations. If you're building out a network enclosure for an IP security or AV distribution deployment, confirm the enclosure series and width match exactly.

Installation Notes

Input voltage is 115V AC at 50/60Hz — this is a hard-wired or IEC cord-connected AC fan tray, not a DC or PoE-powered accessory. Ensure an accessible AC outlet or PDU connection is available inside or adjacent to the enclosure before mounting. The 440 CFM rating assumes unobstructed roof panel airflow; partial blockage from cable management or mounted equipment near the top of the rack will reduce effective throughput. Pair with a rack PDU inside the enclosure for a clean power connection.
