DESCRIPTION
These products are listed by UL under UL file No. E78414.
These products use a sirocco fan driven by a DC motor powered by an integral transformer. The motor is designed to have long operating life, high dynamic response, higher speed ranges with saving energy. The grille covering the fan body is a spring-loaded, quick remove type. A damper for preventing air counter flow is provided. The blower uses a high-capacity sirocco fan developed to reduce the noise level. The lighting unit is an energy-saving LED lighting device that uses one 10W LED lamp and produces almost the
same illumination as a standard 40W incandescent lamp. Night light feature consumes around 0.1 to 0.4 W.
(FV-0511VQCL1 only)
