ebm-papst 4656N | 119×119×38mm AC Axial Fan 230V 160m³/h Ball Bearing — Type 4656N (Mat. VUCF119AQHKZ)
ebm-papst 4656N compact AC axial fan, 230V 50/60Hz, 119×119×38mm, 160 m³/h airflow, 2650 rpm, ball bearing, metal impeller & housing. Material No. VUCF119AQHKZ.
Product Overview
The ebm-papst 4656N (Material No. VUCF119AQHKZ) is a single-phase AC compact axial fan from the 4000N series, designed for cabinet cooling, power supply ventilation, and electronic equipment heat dissipation. It features a 119 × 119 mm square flange, 38 mm depth, 230 V AC shaded-pole external rotor motor, and delivers 160 m³/h free delivery airflow at 2650 rpm. The impeller and housing are black-painted sheet steel / die-cast aluminum, equipped with ball bearings and impedance overload protection. Air is drawn in through the strut side (suction over bars); rotation is clockwise viewed from rotor side. Electrical connection is via 2 flat push-on terminals (3.0 × 0.5 mm) with grounding lugs.
