Cabinet Wall Exhaust Fan for High-Volume Industrial and Agricultural Ventilation

The ACiQ SWE1380 Cabinet Wall Exhaust Fan is a high-performance 54-inch direct-drive wall-mounted exhaust fan designed to deliver powerful, energy-efficient ventilation for industrial, commercial, and agricultural applications. Engineered as a modern, low-maintenance alternative to traditional belt-driven fans like the Triangle VIK and Coolair MBH, this unit effectively removes excess heat, humidity, dust, and airborne contaminants to maintain optimal air quality in large spaces.

Designed for multi-purpose commercial and agricultural use, the SWE1380 series is ideal for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, livestock barns, poultry houses, greenhouses, and grow facilities. Featuring a 54.33-inch square outer housing and requiring a 54.7-inch wall cutout, its rugged cabinet frame installs securely into exterior wall openings for stable, low-vibration operation.

Powered by an advanced 1.5 HP variable-speed brushless motor (ECM / PMSM technology), the fan delivers up to 28,253 CFM of air movement while consuming significantly less energy than conventional induction motors. The maintenance-free direct-drive design eliminates belts, pulleys, and routine bearing service, while the included speed controller (VFD) offers precise airflow adjustment and full compatibility with automated building management systems via RS485 and 0–10V control signals.

ACiQ SWE Cabinet Wall Exhaust Fan Features & Benefits

  • Multi-Purpose Ventilation: Designed for high-volume airflow in industrial, commercial, and agricultural facilities.
  • Advanced Brushless Motor: Powered by an efficient 1.5 HP ECM / PMSM motor that significantly reduces energy consumption.
  • High Airflow Output: Delivers up to 28,253 CFM at 460 RPM, matching the performance of a traditional 3 HP belt-driven fan.
  • Low-Maintenance Direct Drive: Beltless and pulley-free design eliminates routine belt replacements and bearing maintenance.
  • Quiet Operation: Operates at just 65 dBA thanks to smooth direct-drive motor speed control.
  • Precision Control: Includes a variable frequency drive (VFD) supporting RS485 and 0–10V automated control integration.
  • Electrical Options: Available in single-phase (208–230V) and three-phase (208–230V or 460V) power configurations.
  • Durable Construction: Built with an IP55-rated weather- and dust-resistant housing for demanding operating environments.
  • Wall Mount Installation: Fits securely into standard 54.7-inch wall openings with a 54.33-inch outer frame.

Safety Features

  • Secure Mounting – Must be securely mounted in a rigid framework to minimize vibration and help prevent premature shutter failure.
  • Electrical Safety – Fan frame and motor must be properly grounded, and electrical connections must comply with applicable codes.
  • Indoor Use – Designed for indoor use only.
  • Maintenance Safety – Disconnect, lock out, and tag out the power source before installation or servicing. Do not rely on a switch as the sole means of disconnecting power.
  • Motor Protection – The motor may restart automatically without warning after its thermal protector trips. Allow the motor to cool before handling.
  • Speed Control Restriction – Do not use with solid-state speed control devices, as they may create a risk of fire or electric shock.

Customer Questions
Is this fan energy efficient?
Yes — the ACiQ fan uses a high-efficiency permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), which provides smoother operation, greater torque, and lower energy consumption compared to traditional induction motors. Because it’s direct-drive (no belts or pulleys), there is less mechanical loss and wasted energy.
What kind of maintenance does it require?
Very little. Since the unit is direct-drive with no belts or bearings that need frequent servicing, regular maintenance is minimal. Just ensure you clean the fan blades and housing every few months to remove dust or debris, check that mounting hardware remains tight, and inspect the exterior vent/damper to make sure airflow isn’t obstructed. This helps preserve airflow and prevents noise or vibration.
Can the fan speed be adjusted?
Yes. The unit comes with a controller (a VFD — variable frequency drive) that enables easy adjustment of fan speed. That lets you precisely control airflow volume and tailor performance to your needs, which is especially useful for different load conditions or ambient requirements.
What are the installation requirements?
Installation should be done carefully: the fan must be securely mounted in a wall or other structurally sound surface, with proper framing or support such as angle iron or lag screws, and the housing must be sealed to prevent air leaks. It’s also recommended to have a qualified electrician or HVAC technician handle the electrical connections.
What wall cutout size is needed for installation?
For correct installation of the ACiQ 54" Cabinet Wall Exhaust Fan, you need a wall opening (cutout) of 54.7 inches. The fan’s housing outside diameter (OD) is 54.33 inches, which ensures a secure, vibration-free fit when installed properly.
