Lowell FW Series Rack Panel with Whisper Fans 19" Steel Panel | 3 Fans | Thermo Cord

The Lowell FW Series rack fan panels are built for AV integrators, system designers, and production professionals who need reliable thermal management inside standard 19-inch rack enclosures without disruptive fan noise. Whether deployed in permanent installed audio racks, touring production cases, broadcast furniture, or house-of-worship equipment rooms, the FW Series ships ready to install and drops into any standard rack without additional hardware or modification.

Each panel is constructed from 16-gauge steel with a black finish, giving it the structural rigidity needed for high-density equipment racks while blending with standard rack aesthetics. The 4.7-inch fans deliver 50 cfm of airflow per fan with a noise floor of 28 dBA per fan, making them well-suited for environments where ambient noise must remain controlled, such as boardrooms, houses of worship, and broadcast studios. Fan guards are included on every model. The series is available in 3-fan and 4-fan configurations, and with either a standard cord or a thermo-cord that includes a built-in thermostat for automatic temperature-based fan activation, allowing integrators to match the panel to the thermal demands and control requirements of the specific installation.

Compared to generic rack cooling solutions, the FW Series is designed from the ground up as a finished rack panel, not an add-on accessory, so it presents a clean, professional appearance while delivering consistent, measurable airflow. The combination of low noise output, ready-to-install packaging, and multiple configuration options makes this family a practical first choice for any rack build where heat management and noise control both matter.
