Know before you buy
Yes, thanks to the dual ball bearings, the CLOUDLINE S8 can be mounted in any position, including horizontally or vertically, without affecting the motor's lifespan or performance.
The fan is rated at 32 dBA. While this is exceptionally quiet for an 8-inch fan moving 402 CFM, you will notice a soft hum at the highest speed setting, which is significantly quieter than standard AC-powered fans.
The included intelligent controller is wired to the fan unit. This ensures a stable, interference-free connection for precise PWM speed control and advanced programming.
The IP44 rating means the fan is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm and splashing water from any direction. While it is suitable for humid environments like grow tents or greenhouses, it is not designed for direct exposure to heavy rain or submersion.
Yes, the CLOUDLINE S8 is compatible with the UIS™ smart grow platform. You can daisy-chain it with other compatible AC Infinity devices to manage your entire environment from a single controller.
The motor assembly is detachable from the duct housing. This design allows you to easily remove the motor unit to wipe down the blades and housing without having to disconnect the entire ductwork system.
