Hi, can anyone tell me if the Quattro 48/8000 has internal fans and if so how much air do they flow? Thanks

Hi, can anyone tell me if the Quattro 48/8000 has internal fans and if so how much air do they flow? Thanks
Good question. Or, how to prevent heat accumulation in a small space, with Caribbean heat being the ambient air supply.
Does anyone have a reference for the maximum potential air-flow might be needed to remove heat?
Thinking out loud - the maximum air-flow rate of the Quattro might be a good starting point for determining CFM air-change for the space that houses the Quattro.
Am I making this more complicated than it is?
When planning for a Quattro installation, I want to be sure the Quattro doesn't create more heat than what can be removed from the surrounding space.
Help please.
I think you're right to do some homework, especially if you need to operate the unit(s) at nameplate capacity. Can you quantify your ambient temperature in the Carribeans?
I'm not aware of CFMs being specified in Victron products which means that the CFMs could actually change without notice if Victron tweaks their production.
Are you looking at a one-off situation or will it become a typical installation scenario?
edit: removed bit here about max duration after googling caribbean ... not as hot as I thought it might be.
(It may also be worth creating a new thread if you want to go into more detail)
