The Middle Atlantic IFTA-3 Fan Tray is a modular cooling solution designed to optimize airflow over hot equipment inside 19" racks. By placing quiet 4" DC fans directly above vents, it accelerates hot air movement toward exhaust paths, helping to prevent heat buildup that can throttle performance or shorten component life. This fan tray is engineered for flexible deployment across a range of rack configurations, enabling you to tailor cooling to your gear’s heat signature with precision and ease.

  • Optimize rack cooling with a versatile fan strategy: the IFTA-3 accommodates from 3 to 8 quiet 4" DC fans (69 CFM per fan), positioned above vents on hot equipment to get hot air moving in the right direction where it’s most effective.
  • Eight mounting positions plus optional add-on fans give you precise control over where airflow is needed most, letting you target hotspots and balance cooling across multiple components within a single rack.
  • High-visibility, simple customization: configure the tray to your exact cooling requirements, mix and match fan counts, and reconfigure as equipment stacks evolve without replacing the entire system.
  • Designed for seamless integration in standard rack environments: compatible with 19" rack rails, built from sturdy materials, and engineered to operate with minimal noise to preserve a calm control-room or AV environment.
  • Maintenance-friendly and serviceable: modular design allows easy fan replacement or expansion, reducing downtime and simplifying routine upkeep in busy installations.

Technical Details of Middle Atlantic IFTA-3 Fan Tray

  • Designed to support 3 to 8 x 4" DC fans, with each fan delivering up to 69 CFM for robust airflow.
  • Eight fan mounting positions provide flexible placement to align airflow with vents and heat sources across the rack.
  • Fan tray is intended to position fans directly above vents on hot equipment, maximizing cooling efficiency by guiding heat away from components and toward rack exhaust.
  • Modular, expandable design supports optional add-on fans to scale cooling as equipment density increases or changes.
  • Optimized for use within standard 19" rack systems, allowing for streamlined integration into existing rack layouts and workflows.

How to Install Middle Atlantic IFTA-3 Fan Tray

Installing the IFTA-3 Fan Tray is a straightforward process designed to minimize downtime and maximize cooling efficiency. Follow these general guidelines to implement effective airflow in your rack environment:

  • Assess your gear’s heat profile: identify the hottest equipment and the racks that generate the most heat. Plan fan placement using the eight mounting positions to direct airflow precisely where it’s needed most. Consider whether you will run 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 fans based on the heat load and available space in your cabinet.
  • Prepare the rack: clear the rack area around the intended fan tray location. Ensure the mounting rails can support the tray and that there is access for cable routing and serviceability.
  • Mount the tray: install the IFTA-3 into the rack frame using the appropriate hardware. Align the tray so that the fans’ intake areas align with the planned positions above the vents. Secure firmly to minimize vibration or movement during operation.
  • Install and connect fans: if you are adding fans, place them in the designated mounting positions. Connect each fan to the tray’s power bus or your DC power distribution as per your system design. Maintain consistent polarity and verify that all fans are oriented to move air toward the exhaust or through the vented path as intended.
  • Configure airflow and test: power on the system and observe each fan’s operation. Confirm that air moves over the hottest components and exits efficiently through the rack’s exhaust. Listen for excessive vibration or noise and adjust mounting or fan count if needed to optimize performance.
  • Verify maintenance procedures: document the fan count and positions for future reference. Establish a routine to clean dust from fans and vents and to check for wear or degradation in the DC fans. Replace any failed fans promptly to maintain effective cooling.
  • Safety and compliance: follow all manufacturer guidelines for electrical connections and ensure that all wiring is neatly organized to prevent interference with airflow or rack doors. Ensure redundancy options are considered if uptime is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is the best luster, the double-sided
Size: 13"x19"
I was disappointed when I accidentally bought the single-sided luster because I like getting double-sided luster from a sub, as it gives you the superior 74 lb paper. I don't even use it to print on both sides. I have it simply because it is thicker, and one thing that I've also noticed that is kind of strange, is this has a better and more textured surface than a Subs single-sided luster for the 13x19 format. I consider the luster that is single-sided, to be a texture that is between what this double-sided Buster is, and A-Sub's Satin finish. Now that I have the premium glossy, the double-sided luster, luster, and satin, I have everything I need for a ton of prints! Thank you so much asub, because you are better quality than the Staples paper which I figured would be the more expensive paper and maybe better because it's coming from a brick-and-mortar store, but your resin Coatings are better than theirs, and therefore yours soaks up the ink faster and doesn't leave Pizza wheel marks. There is simply no reason, unless you have to have the watermarks on the back from the professional paper, to buy professional paper. This stuff is professional just without the water mark or the higher price

Excellent Quality – Perfect for Custom Projects
Size: 13"x19"
When I ordered this paper, I wasn’t sure if it would be thick enough. My daughter wanted to create a custom calendar for the family, and I offered to handle the printing. I noticed it was double-sided and appeared to have a similar finish on both sides, so I decided to give it a try. To my surprise, the quality was even better than expected. The thickness was just right for the project, and the calendars turned out beautifully—crisp, vibrant, and professional-looking. The paper held the colors well throughout the entire print job. In the end, the whole family loved how the calendars came out. I’d definitely use this paper again for future creative projects!

A-SUB Iron-On
Number of Items: 20
I am thoroughly impressed with the A-SUB Iron-On Heat Transfer Paper! The color accuracy is excellent; my designs printed vividly and transferred beautifully to my white cotton shirts with pigment ink, looking almost like a professional sublimation print. Printer compatibility is a breeze as it works perfectly with my standard inkjet printer, and I experienced no paper jams. For use, it's incredibly versatile for DIY projects like t-shirts, tote bags, and aprons. The included instructions were clear, making the transfer process with my home iron straightforward for a beginner like me. The paper's thickness feels sturdy enough to go through the printer without issues but isn't overly bulky on the fabric after pressing. Considering the quality and the number of sheets in the pack (I got 20 sheets for around $14 USD), the value for money is fantastic. The transfers have held up well after several washes (following the care instructions carefully—inside out, cold water, no bleach), with no cracking or peeling. This is a great product for anyone looking to personalize their wardrobe!

Looking for JetProSS? This is the closest you will find on Amazon, might even be better?
If you are like us and have been in need of JPSS quickly, i'm sure you have tried various brands on here that were available for white the next day. Some come close to Neenah's almost perfect Jet Pro line but you typically get the 'negative' area dark box on lighter greys and even on some whites. Since we are familiar with A-Sub's amazing Sub paper, we deceided to give this a run for the money. Impressive. This paper is awesome! Really like the outcome of the graphic. Were just a few of the comments made by pressers that day. Think we are going to give a head-to-head competition with some this week and will post pics post-press and after washing to see how it holds up vs JPSS Stay away from brands on here that appear to be beta versions and actually have their models labeled with 1.0, 2.0 etc. They might be ok for a one off event where the likely hood of someone wearing again post event is slim Happy with the outcome thus far! Great quality and price we will be back for sure!
