  • LED lasts up 25,000 hours.

Optional Accessories (sold separately)

  • Plug-and-play modules for easy customization:
  • PES: Humidity Sensing Module – fan activation when humidity level is above setpoint (50-100%). Module will mount on muffler plate.
  • PEM: Motion Sensing Module – fan activation with motion (not compatible with lit SKUs – PTEL511RK & PTEL1115RK). Module will mount on the back side of the non-lit grille.
  • PTRD: Radiation Damper: UL classified for use in up to 3-hour ceiling constructions (UL 555C and UL 263). No rust – 16 gauge galvanized steel construction. No hardware attachment method. Easy access to fan/motor/damper for maintenance.

Other

  • 5-year warranty on parts.
  • Fan-only models shall be UL Listed for use over bathtubs and showers when connected to a GFCI-protected brand circuit (ceiling mount only).
  • Fan/light models are not UL Listed for use over bathtubs and showers (PTEL511RK and PTEL1115RK).

Airflow Performance

PTE511RK & PTEL511RK

Selectable Boost CFM

A graph showing static pressure (y-axis, 0.0 to 0.8 inches water gauge) versus airflow (x-axis, 0 to 130 CFM). Multiple curves illustrate the relationship between static pressure and airflow for different selectable CFM settings.

Continuous Run CFM

A shaded area graph illustrating precise airflow rate adjustability. The y-axis represents static pressure (0.0 to 0.5 inches water gauge), and the x-axis represents airflow (0 to 120 CFM). The shaded region indicates the range of CFM the fan can produce at various static pressures.
