Extractor Box 550 m³/h
Torin centrifugal extractor housed in a soundproofed MDF box lined with acoustic egg-crate foam. Delivers 550 m³/h at just 22 dB on half speed and 30.6 dB at full power — quieter than a whispered conversation. The fan motor sits on rubber anti-vibration mounts inside the enclosure, mechanically decoupled from the housing to eliminate vibration transfer. Inlet and outlet both Ø 200 mm, dimensions 40 x 40 x 50 cm, weight 17 kg. Compatible with external speed controllers for additional noise reduction. This product is available for in-store pickup only — shipping is not possible due to its size and weight. Visit plantandflower.be.
Extractor Box 550 m³/h – the quietest extraction solution in the range
For growers in residential settings, extraction noise is often the single biggest limitation on ventilation capacity. Inline fans transmit motor vibration directly through ducting, creating noise that travels far beyond the grow space. This 550 m³/h extractor box takes a fundamentally different approach: a Torin centrifugal motor mounted on rubber anti-vibration suspensions inside an MDF enclosure lined with acoustic foam. The result is extraction that produces just 22 dB at half speed — below the ambient noise level in a quiet bedroom. Important: this product is available for in-store pickup only. Shipping is not possible due to its size and weight.
Three-layer noise reduction: how a box fan achieves under 31 dB
The exceptional acoustic performance comes from three independent noise-reduction mechanisms working together. The rubber mounts decouple the motor from the enclosure, preventing mechanical vibration from reaching the box walls. The MDF housing acts as a mass barrier that blocks airborne noise from the fan and air turbulence. The egg-crate acoustic foam lining the interior absorbs residual sound reflections before they can escape through the inlet and outlet openings. No inline fan — even paired with an external silencer — achieves this level of noise reduction at comparable airflow rates. At full power, this box produces only 30.6 dB, while a typical inline fan of similar capacity generates 45 to 55 dB.
Sizing and system integration at Ø 200 mm
Both inlet and outlet flanges are Ø 200 mm, accepting standard aluminium ducting and carbon filters of that diameter. At 550 m³/h, this box fan handles grow spaces up to approximately 1.5 m² under 400-600W lighting. Pair it with a Can-Lite 800 carbon filter — the oversized filter rating ensures minimal flow restriction and optimal odour removal. Connect with 203 mm aluminium ducting. For additional speed control and further noise reduction, add a Cli-Mate speed controller or Variispeed dimmer to dial the fan down to near-silent operation.
In-store pickup only — no shipping available
At 40 x 40 x 50 cm and 17 kg, this extractor box exceeds the size and weight limits of standard parcel services. This product is available for in-store pickup only. Contact us in advance to reserve your unit before visiting. The box ships fully assembled with flanges, suspension hooks, and power cable — ready for ceiling or wall installation in any orientation. Mount it outside the grow tent where possible, using the supplied hooks and additional anti-vibration material beneath the mounting points to prevent any residual vibration transfer to the building structure. The 17 kg weight requires ceiling hooks or wall brackets rated for this load. The centrifugal motor design maintains consistent airflow even through longer duct runs and carbon filter resistance, making placement flexibility a practical advantage of this format.

Can this extractor box be shipped?
No. This product is available for in-store pickup only. The dimensions of 40 x 40 x 50 cm and weight of 17 kg exceed standard parcel delivery limits. Please contact us to reserve your unit before visiting the store.
How does the noise level compare to a standard inline fan?
A typical inline fan at 550 m³/h produces 45-55 dB. This box fan achieves 22 dB at half speed and 30.6 dB at full power. Every 10 dB reduction is perceived as roughly half the loudness, making this box fan significantly quieter than any inline alternative at comparable airflow.
Can I control the speed of this box fan?
Yes. The Torin centrifugal motor is compatible with external speed controllers. A Cli-Mate controller or Variispeed dimmer allows you to reduce speed continuously. At lower speeds, noise drops even further below the already-low 22 dB at half power.
What carbon filter should I use with this 550 m³/h box fan?
A carbon filter rated above the fan's output ensures effective filtration without restricting airflow. The Can-Lite 800 with Ø 200 mm connection provides ample capacity. The oversized filter also reduces pressure drop, allowing the fan to operate more quietly while maintaining effective odour removal.
