Reel EFX RE5 Fan - 2800W 9-Blade Wind Machine with DMX and 1780 RPM Speed in Black Finish

The Reel EFX RE5 Fan is a powerful 2800W 9-blade wind machine engineered for professional applications in studios, stages, locations, and theme parks where maximum airflow is required with minimal noise. This state-of-the-art fan incorporates advanced aerodynamics along with a Baldor Premium efficient motor and a sophisticated solid-state drive to produce wind speeds exceeding 39 mph at a distance of one yard. The RE5 Fan is designed not only for performance but also for quiet operation, making it the ideal choice for environments where sound levels must be controlled.

The fan features a durable rotary molded housing and a composite blade assembly that contributes to its lightweight design, while its integrated DMX interface allows for seamless integration into existing lighting and control systems. This versatility makes the RE5 Fan one of the quietest, lightest, and most powerful special effects fans on the market. It can operate on a range of voltage sources from 115 to 240 VAC. When connected to a 115-125 VAC source, it requires a 20 Amp service and 12/3 heavy-duty extension cords when necessary. However, when plugged into a 200-240 VAC source, the fan automatically engages its "High Output Mode," using up to 11.6 amps at 240 VAC to deliver maximum performance.

For user-friendly operation, the RE5 Fan is equipped with a local control panel that allows for general speed adjustments via a rotary knob. The burst button feature enables immediate bursts to 100% speed when held down, along with a pause and resume function when tapped quickly. For more advanced control, the DMX mode allows for remote operation of fan speed using a DMX lighting console, with a control panel that includes input and pass-through DMX 5-pin XLR connectors. This functionality provides flexibility and convenience in a variety of performance settings.

The RE5 Fan boasts a universal voltage input range and features active power factor correction at max load, ensuring optimal efficiency. Additionally, the fan utilizes Silent Smart Switching technology to eliminate drive noise at low RPMs, providing a faster responding control system. This fan delivers 33% more power than its predecessor, the RE4, and incorporates an improved active brake system to stop the blades at zero speed effectively. With an eco-friendly RoHS-compliant construction, the RE5 Fan not only performs well but also adheres to environmental standards.
