Middle Atlantic BGR Series 552 CFM Fan Top with Controller for BGR Series Racks
The BGR-552FT-FC is a premium top-mount cooling solution engineered to optimize thermal performance for your BGR Series racks. With four pre-mounted high-performance fans, it delivers up to 552 CFM of airflow at a quiet 38 dBA, helping to dissipate heat from dense, high-heat equipment. The integrated controller provides precise, hassle-free temperature management, enabling you to tailor the cooling profile to changing workloads. Built for durability and reliability in demanding environments, this fan top combines robust construction with intuitive operation, making it an essential upgrade for data centers, studios, and mission-critical rack deployments.
- High-performance cooling: Four pre-mounted, high-efficiency fans deliver up to 552 CFM, rapidly removing heat from dense rack loads to maintain optimal operating temperatures and reduce hot spots.
- Quiet operation for busy environments: At a mere 38 dBA, the BGR-552FT-FC strikes a balance between powerful cooling and low noise, making it suitable for data centers, broadcast facilities, and recording studios where noise matters.
- Integrated controller for precise thermal management: The built-in controller enables adjustable fan speeds and thermostat-based auto control, allowing you to optimize cooling performance while minimizing energy use and wear on components.
- Streamlined top-mount installation on BGR Series racks: Designed specifically for the BGR Series, the top-mounted unit installs quickly with purpose-built mounting hardware, reducing installation time and vibrations for a stable, rack-perfect fit.
- Protects critical equipment and extends lifecycle: Consistent, even airflow across the rack minimizes hotspots, improves overall system reliability, and helps extend the life of sensitive electronics and power-dense hardware.

how to install Middle Atlantic BGR Series 552 CFM Fan Top with Controller for BGR Series Racks
Step 1: Power down the rack and any connected equipment. Ensure the area around the rack is clear and you have access to the top-mount surface where the unit will be installed.
Step 2: Align the BGR-552FT-FC top with the rack’s top flange. Confirm that the mounting points line up with the chassis and that there is unobstructed airflow path across the front and rear of the cabinet.
Step 3: Secure the fan top using the provided mounting hardware, tightening evenly to minimize vibrations and ensure a firm, stable fit. Check that the assembly sits flat against the rack without gaps.
Step 4: Connect the wiring harness and power connector to the unit, following the included wiring diagram. Verify voltage compatibility and confirm all connections are secure before applying power.
Step 5: Power on the rack and access the integrated controller. Configure the cooling profile to match your load profile—set target temperatures, adjust fan speed ranges, and enable thermostat auto-control if desired. Use temperature sensors or a rack monitor to verify even airflow and confirm there are no obstructed vents on the rack.
Step 6: Inspect after initial operation for any unusual sounds or vibration. If necessary, recheck mounting tightness and re-seat any cables to prevent interference with moving parts. Maintain clear intake and exhaust paths to preserve maximum airflow efficiency.
Step 7: Document the installation and keep a log of controller settings for future reference. Periodically verify that the fans are spinning smoothly and that the temperature targets remain aligned with your equipment’s thermal requirements.
