DC Axial Fan Ball Bearing 92x38mm High Speed
Unveiling a New Benchmark in High-Performance Cooling: The 92x38mm DC Fan
In the domain of modern electronics and industrial machinery, dependable heat regulation is an essential prerequisite for ensuring reliability, optimal function, and longevity. As components become more powerful and chassis designs grow more compact, the need for cooling solutions that provide superior performance within confined areas has never been more intense.
This 92x38mm high-velocity DC fan is engineered to exceed such stringent requirements, presenting a potent, resilient, and exceptionally dependable answer for the most challenging thermal conditions. Created for professionals and system designers who cannot compromise on quality, this collection of DC fans provides a superb combination of raw power, sophisticated functionality, and long-term durability.
Uncompromising Air Displacement and Static Pressure
The fundamental purpose of any DC fan is air displacement, and this 92x38mm model accomplishes this task with remarkable strength. The fan offers a wide performance spectrum, capable of generating a peak airflow reaching an incredible 137.1 cubic feet per minute (CFM). This level of airflow is vital for applications that produce substantial heat, facilitating rapid circulation and the quick dissipation of thermal buildup from critical parts like CPUs, FPGAs, and powerful amplifiers. By keeping components within their ideal temperature range, this fan directly enhances system stability and helps prevent premature component failure.
However, sheer airflow volume is only part of the equation. In many practical scenarios, air does not travel along a clear, unimpeded path. It must be driven through dense heatsinks, tightly arranged server blades, complex internal chassis, and fine-mesh filters. Such obstructions generate resistance, or impedance, which can severely diminish a lesser fan's effectiveness.
This is where static pressure assumes critical importance. This DC fan is constructed to conquer these obstacles, producing a formidable maximum static pressure of up to 1.28 inchH₂O (or 32.3 mmH₂O). This high-pressure capability guarantees that a consistent and forceful stream of air reaches the intended components, even within high-impedance systems where other fans would stall or fail to supply adequate cooling.
The performance characteristics are vividly depicted in the fan's P&Q (Pressure vs. Airflow) curve, which displays models operating at various speeds, such as 3500, 4200, 5500, and an ultra-high 6800 RPM. This grants designers the flexibility to pick the precise performance point that aligns their system's cooling necessities with acoustic and power consumption objectives. Whether the main goal is maximum cooling for an overclocked server or quieter, yet substantial, airflow for an office device, this series presents a tailored solution.
Engineered for Extreme Durability and Reliability
Exceptional performance is meaningless without steadfast reliability. This DC fan is meticulously constructed for a long and dependable service life, even during continuous, around-the-clock operation. A high-quality dual ball bearing system is at the core of its design. In contrast to inferior sleeve bearings prone to lubricant leakage and wear, dual ball bearings provide reduced friction, greater precision, and a markedly longer lifespan. They are also significantly more resilient to high temperatures, making them the superior choice for hot-running industrial equipment and densely packed data center hardware.
The fan's physical construction is equally resilient. Both the frame and its seven-bladed impeller are fabricated from a premium Thermal Plastic compliant with the UL 94V-0 flammability standard. This material not only delivers excellent structural integrity and dimensional stability across a broad temperature range but also ensures the fan will not propagate fire, a crucial safety feature for any electronic device.
To further protect the fan and its host system, sophisticated motor protection circuits are built directly into the fan's electronics. Impedance protection ensures that if the fan blades are physically obstructed, the motor is safe from burnout due to overcurrent. Furthermore, reverse polarity protection averts catastrophic failure should the power leads be connected incorrectly during setup—a simple error that could otherwise ruin the fan.
With a broad operational temperature tolerance from -10°C to 70°C and a storage range of -40°C to 80°C, this fan is designed for deployment in nearly any indoor environment.
Flexibility for Advanced System Integration
Acknowledging that contemporary systems demand more than simple brute-force cooling, this fan series includes a suite of advanced features and options to enable smart system integration. The fan is offered in three standard DC voltage ratings—12V, 24V, and 48V—making it directly compatible with the power systems found in networking, telecommunications, industrial automation, and server hardware.
For systems requiring active fan monitoring and management, several control and feedback choices are offered:
Auto Restart: This essential function ensures that if an obstruction temporarily stalls the motor, it will automatically try to restart once the blockage is removed, restoring cooling without manual intervention.
Frequency Generator (FG)/Tachometer Output: This third-wire signal provides real-time feedback on the fan's rotational speed. A system controller can monitor this output to confirm the fan is operating correctly, raising an alert if it slows or fails.
Rotation Detector (RD)/Locked Rotor Alarm: This alarm signal gives a simple high/low logic state to show whether the fan is spinning or has stopped. This is vital for mission-critical systems where an immediate response to fan failure is necessary.
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Speed Control: The four-wire PWM variant permits precise, dynamic control over the fan's speed. By modulating the PWM signal's duty cycle, a system motherboard or controller can adjust airflow in real-time based on thermal sensor data. This facilitates the creation of "smart" cooling profiles that increase fan speed only when required, significantly reducing average power draw and acoustic noise during periods of low load.
With its conventional 92x92mm frame, 38mm depth, and 82.5mm mounting hole configuration, this DC fan can function as a drop-in replacement for existing hardware or an easy component for new designs. Weighing just 190 grams and featuring 250mm lead wires, its installation is straightforward and efficient. This synthesis of potent performance, rugged construction, and sophisticated control options establishes this 92x38mm DC fan as the definitive cooling solution for demanding applications where failure is not an option.
