Rittal 3238110-4 TopTherm Filter Fan Unit, 115V

The Rittal 3238110-4 TopTherm Filter Fan Unit is a complete, tool-free fan assembly built for surface mounting on enclosures, with the TopTherm filter fan lineup available in airflow ratings from 39 CFM to 424 CFM to match panel and cabinet cooling loads. Rated for 115V, 1~, 50 Hz/60 Hz operation, this filter fan unit ships with IP54 protection to IEC 60 529 and EN 60 529 as standard, with IP55 and IP56 configurations available using a folded filter, absorber mat, or hose-proof hood. The unit also carries a NEMA Type 12 rating as standard, with Type 3, 3R, 4, 4X protection achievable using a folded filter and hose-proof hood for wet or outdoor-adjacent installations.

Key Features

Why Rittal?

Rittal builds the TopTherm filter fan family around a diagonal, capacitor-motor fan, a RAL 7035 finish, and standard IP54/NEMA Type 12 protection to keep sensitive enclosure electronics within a safe -30 C to 55 C operating range. Optional folded filter, absorber mat, and hose-proof hood configurations extend protection to IP56 and NEMA Type 3, 3R, 4, 4X, while airflow ratings from 39 CFM to 424 CFM let this filter fan unit adapt to demanding industrial and outdoor-adjacent environments across a wide range of enclosure sizes.

Rittal 3238110 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Rittal TopTherm filter fan run on 115V single phase North American power?
Yes. The TopTherm filter fan unit is rated 115 V, 1~, 50 Hz/60 Hz, so it runs on standard North American single phase control power at either line frequency. Rittal specifies a 6A miniature circuit breaker or fuse as the pre-fuse ahead of it, so size the branch protection accordingly when you lay out the panel.
2) Which airflow rating should I order for my enclosure, and what sizes are offered?
Four airflow options are offered on the 115V TopTherm filter fan: 39 CFM (part 3238110), 94 CFM (3240110), 353 CFM (3243110) and 424 CFM (3244110). Pick by the heat load in the cabinet, not the cabinet size alone: the 39 and 94 CFM units suit small control panels with a few drives or PLC racks, while 353 and 424 CFM are for large industrial cabinets with significant dissipation. If you add the optional folded filter, airflow shifts per the characteristic curve, so allow margin.
3) Is this filter fan rated for a washdown or outdoor enclosure?
Not as it ships. Out of the box the unit is IP54 to IEC 60 529 and EN 60 529 with a NEMA Type 12 rating, which covers dust and dripping water indoors. For wet or outdoor-adjacent work you need the optional parts: a folded filter with absorber mat takes it to IP55, a hose-proof hood takes it to IP56, and the hood with a folded filter gets you NEMA Type 3, 3R, 4 and 4X. Order those accessories with the fan if the location demands it.
4) How much room do I need behind the panel wall for a TopTherm filter fan?
Installation depth is 118.5 mm, so allow roughly that much clearance from the mounting surface plus space for air to move freely into the cabinet. Keep wireway, DIN rail and cable routing out of that footprint or the fan will be starved.
5) Do I need tools or a special cutout kit to mount this Rittal fan?
The TopTherm unit ships as a complete assembly for tool-free surface mounting on the enclosure, with the fleece filter mat included. You still have to make the cutout in the enclosure wall and land the 115V supply, but the fan itself clips in without fasteners, which is what makes filter changes and retrofits quick on a live site.
6) Can this fan handle a freezing outdoor utility building or a hot plant floor?
Operating range is -30 C to 55 C, with storage from -30 C to 70 C. That covers unheated buildings in cold climates and hot industrial floors. Note that a filter fan only moves ambient air, so it cannot cool an enclosure below the surrounding air temperature. If the plant ambient is already at the limit of what your electronics tolerate, you want a closed loop cooling unit instead.
7) Will the Rittal filter fan match the color of my existing enclosures?
The housing is finished in RAL 7035, the light grey used across standard industrial enclosures, so it blends with most Rittal and comparable painted cabinets rather than standing out on the door or side panel.
8) What kind of fan and motor is inside, and what maintenance does it need?
It uses a diagonal fan driven by a single phase capacitor motor. The routine maintenance item is the filter mat: a fleece mat comes with the unit and clogs over time in dusty plants, which drops airflow. Schedule mat changes with your other panel PM and keep spares, or move to the optional folded filter where the environment is dirtier.
