SMPS/CPU - DC Cooling Fan - 12vSMPS CPU

Voltage Rating: The cooling fan is designed to operate at a voltage of 12V. This voltage level is typical for many electronic devices and power supplies, including SMPS units.

Cooling Function: The primary function of the cooling fan is to dissipate heat generated by the components inside the SMPS unit. SMPS units can generate heat during operation, and efficient cooling is essential to maintain their proper functioning and prevent overheating.

Size: Cooling fans come in various sizes, typically measured in millimeters (mm) for the dimensions of the fan frame and the diameter of the fan blades. The size of the fan can influence its airflow and cooling capacity.

Airflow: The cooling fan generates airflow when it operates. The direction and speed of airflow depend on the rotation direction of the fan blades and the design of the fan. Adequate airflow is necessary to carry heat away from the SMPS components.

Mounting: The cooling fan is typically mounted on the enclosure or chassis of the SMPS unit. Proper mounting ensures that the fan effectively circulates air within the enclosure to cool the internal components.

Noise Level: Cooling fans can produce varying levels of noise, depending on their design and quality. Lower noise fans are preferred in applications where noise is a concern.

Connector: The fan may have a specific type of connector for power and control. Common connectors include 2-pin and 3-pin connectors, which are used to connect the fan to the power supply and, in some cases, to a fan speed control system.

Maintenance: Over time, dust and debris can accumulate on the fan blades, reducing its efficiency. Regular cleaning and maintenance may be required to ensure optimal cooling performance.
