I'm getting a little restless.
I have bought a TD silent 5 Inch In Line Duct Extractor Fan - Silent 350m3/hr made by Soler & Palau.
It is supposed to be world’s most quiet fans in its class.
I want to get almost silent running in my cab.
I bought a larger size than I need as it is quieter than the smaller sized fan and I can also use a varic controller to slow it down to half speed for even quieter operation.
I'm also going to buy and oversized carbon filter too to give the fan motor less air resistance when pulling air through it.
The thing is I ordered it from a guy in france, the package is in transit but when I look at the tracking details, nothing much seems to be going on.
It is due for delivery from today to the 10/2/17, so there are a few more days to wait in that time period.
I ordered it well over a week ago and I am now so impatient for it to arrive.
The waiting is killing me!
TD350/125 SILENT 380m3/hr 20dB
View attachment 699008
Low profile "Mixed-flow" fans with soundabsorbent insulation. Extremely quiet.
Certified of Approval Noise Abatement Society (TD-2000 model). Constructed from sheet steel with epoxy polyester paint, acoustic insulation (MO) glass fibre, within outer shell.
Aerodynamic inlet to improve airflow and reduce sound. Detachable fan unit without demounting duct connections. IP44.
External terminal box IP55.
Removeable fan body with 2 speed motor, single phase 230V-50/60Hz speed controlable, Class F, external rotor aluminium motor with capacitor and
thermal protection.
As a 'mix-vent' fan these develop less pressure than our acoustic centrifugal box fans, but for use with duct runs shorter than 10 meters or so are perfectly adequate. We anticipate these fans becoming the standard for domestic acoustic in-line extraction systems.
Fitted with rubber gaskets on the inlet and outlet to absorb vibrations, a body that can be dismantled.
Connection box can be rotated 360º, to facilitate easy connection of the power cable.

Is anyone else using one of these fans and what are your thoughts on it?
Took me a sec to remember that other countries don't put the days and months the same as we do sometimes in their dates. Thought they were telling you it would be here between now and October 2nd.
Anyhow...the TD series are good fans. My little TD150 works like a champ and is nice and quiet.
Oh yea....and GOOOOOOD MORNING AFN!!!!!
