Key Features & Applications
1. IP68 Sealing for Harsh Environments
Unlike standard fans, the 8506N-489 is fully IP68-rated, meaning it withstands:
✔ Submersion (up to 1m depth for 30+ mins)
✔ High-pressure washdowns (food processing, marine)
✔ Dust-heavy areas (construction, mining)
2. Industrial Construction for Longevity
- Die-cast aluminum housing prevents warping in humid conditions.
- Steel impeller with anti-corrosion coating ensures debris resistance.
3. Optimized for Moderate Static Pressure
Despite its compact 80mm size, it moves 35.9 CFM—perfect for:
✔ Enclosure cooling (electrical cabinets, telecom shelters)
✔ HVAC duct boosters
✔ Medical equipment ventilation
Performance Comparison Within 8000N Series
The 8000N Series offers similar-size fans with varying protection levels:
| Model | Voltage | Airflow | Noise | Bearing | IP Rating | Key Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8506N | 115VAC | 35.9 CFM | 35 dB(A) | Ball | IP68 | Highest protection |
| 8412N | 230VAC | 29.5 CFM | 30 dB(A) | Sintec | IP54 | Lower airflow |
| 825N | 24VAC | 21.2 CFM | 25 dB(A) | Ball | IP55 | Low-voltage option |
For higher IP68-rated airflow, the 8506N-489 outperforms most 80mm competitors.
Why Choose the 8506N-489?
🔹 IP68 beats typical IP55 fans in durability for wet/dirty conditions.
🔹 11W power draw balances performance and energy efficiency.
🔹 Includes grounding lug (M4x8 screw) for electrical safety compliance.
Ideal replacements for failing fans in outdoor signage, food processing vents, or marine electronics.
🔍 Note: Compliant with RoHS (except lead exemptions). For higher CFM in IP68, consider larger ebm-papst fans like the 4300N series.
