No surprise tariffs – what You see is what You pay
Here you will find out moreIn the era of increasingly fast computers and processors with an growing number of cores, a large amount of heat that has to be removed from the enclosure becomes a challenge. Fans are what helps to cope with it. The standard solution is a constant power supply voltage of 12VDC.
12VDC fans feature a number of parameters that must be taken into account when choosing the right product.For better cooling, a 12V fan must rotate at a sufficiently high speed. Unfortunately, along with the increase in speed, in addition to the benefits of a greater amount of forced air, we must also accept the side effect of increasing noise.
To some extent, the solution to this problem is to use a fan with a suitable bearing. Here, we can distinguish durable, but also noisy ball bearings, and slide bearings, which are quieter but have a shorter lifespan. The third option are Vapo bearings. The best choice for 12VDC fans seems to be hydraulic bearings, which combine low noise level with long service life.The noise can also be handled by selecting the largest possible fan with as many blades as possible, which allows you to reduce the rotational speed while minimising bearing wear.
Of course, the size of the fan is also limited by the available space. Larger ones can be used for server enclosures, industrial computers, processor cooling, power supply or water cooler in the water cooling system. Smaller fans are suitable for cooling graphics cards, certain CPU or graphics card heat sinks, and the smallest fans are suitable for chipsets on motherboards.
