help please

i bought stuff for a grow tent 3x3x7 i bought a 600 watt light, ballast , incline fan, ducting and yield master supreme reflector with glass. the incline fan is rated 160 cfm. I need to know if this is good enough and would like a photo possibly of what it looks like set up. I thought i could tackle this but want to make sure the tent is secret jardin

That is enough CFM to do the job. It's not an inline duct fan though, correct?

you should be fine dude, i use a 165 cfm inline fan witha carbon filter....my grow box is 27 inches wide 3ft deep and 65 inches high, and that fan and all works great at keepin the temps right around 76 - 80 also a clip on fan too..but i only have a 250w hps.....

I can say this I have a 1000w HPS cooled by one 8 inch, 500cfm, inline fan with insulated ducting and i can hold my hand on the glass everywhere except directly under the bulb.
Make sure you suck air through the light, not blow it.

Although i would place the fan on the right side of the light, the work better suckin

 

[ak.fortyseven]

that is just one example of how it can be mounted, adjust the rig to suit your needs, you can even have the fan on the outside of the tent, sucking out of the tent.

 

[ak.fortyseven]

basically:

Filter >> Hood >> Fan >>>

i recomend seting the fan on top of tent n hooking duct to it through the top vent. duel purpose, keeps heat outside tent n you wont ever have to worry about fan coming loose n crushing plants.. ask me how i know lol. filter-light-fan in that order, they are designed to suck not push.

so the way the photo is, the air is being pulled out of the tent right?

 

[ak.fortyseven]

in the photo, its removing air from the tent, but the fan ends up pushing because of where it is put, thoose fans work best is they suck the air, so optimally if you had it ontop of your tent pulling thru the light then lastly the filter.
