Description
The Panasonic WhisperSense® DC FV-0511VQC1 is a precision spot ventilation fan with built-in motion and humidity sensors for automatic moisture and odor control. Its Pick-A-Flow® 50, 80 or 110 CFM selector lets installers match airflow to the room and code requirements without changing fan models.
An efficient ECM DC motor with SmartFlow™ technology automatically increases speed when it detects static pressure, helping maintain the selected airflow through long or restrictive duct runs. The adjustable humidity setting, delay timer and flexible mounting system make it well suited for bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages and other moisture-prone spaces.
Product Features
- Combines motion and humidity sensing to provide hands-free ventilation and built-in redundancy for automatic moisture and odor removal.
- Selects between 50, 80 and 110 CFM with a simple switch to meet varying room sizes and residential ventilation requirements.
- Uses SmartFlow™ technology to detect static pressure and automatically adjust motor speed for dependable airflow through difficult duct runs.
