High speed DC axial fans are widely used across industries for cooling electrical machines and equipment. These axial flow fans are durable and used in various small to large applications. Sofasco International is one of the leading manufacturers of RoHS, certified DC axial cooling fans in different voltages. These muffin DC fans are designed for commercial, industrial, and OEM applications. We offer these fans in various performance characteristics, materials, and functionalities in sizes ranging from 25mm to 172 mm. Our product line features high-performance and ultra-quiet, low-, medium-, and high-speed DC brushless fans. There are small and miniature electronic and computer cooling fans, micro exhaust fans, as well as waterproof and dustproof fans. We can also provide centrifugal and serial fans for increased airflow in high static pressure enclosures.

Standard Features of Industrial DC Axial Fans

Cooling Behavior of DC Brushless Axial Fans Discussed

DC brushless fans are used for cooling electronic circuits across industries. The cooling behavior of these fans depends on several factors such as:

  • Current Capacity of a DC Fan Motor: The current drawn by the DC fan motor is often indicated as an average current. However, it is not clear if the current drawn is the DC current. When the fan is operated at its peak it may draw large currents. If the electronics that interfaces a DC brushless cooling fan shares grounding with digital logic circuitry of low level then it may cause functional issues at peak These large switching currents may produce ripple voltage on the DC line, thereby affecting the cooling behavior of the fan.
  • Stall Region: This is one of the complex behavioral concepts of an axial fan. There are several reasons why a fan may act as a stall. If the fan is operated at a high pressure, the air exiting through it may move in a diagonal direction than the expected axial direction. This can create major problems for objects that are cooled on the same axis of the fan. Hence while designing the fan it must be ensured that the required areas attain maximum airflow.
  • Fan Vibrations: Vibrations of fans can also impact the cooling capability. Some amount of vibration will be generated depending on the speed and balance of the fan. There are several factors that may lead to vibration; however, you can correct a few of them with minor design changes. For instance, consider the gap between the fan and the structure onto which it is mounted. Similarly, address the frequency of the rotation of the fan and the structure where it is mounted.
  • Speed and Input Voltage: The speed and input voltage of a DC brushless motor fan are related to each other. The speed of a fan changes with the input voltage. Brushless fans are usually available in three voltage variants – 12V, 24V, and 48V. Generally, in the data sheet, you will see the rated voltage mentioned as 12 VDC, and the operating voltage from 6 to18 VDC. If the fan is operated at a lower voltage than mentioned then the airflow will reduce, too. For instance, if the fan is operated at 12 VDC, its speed would be 2500 RPM and airflow would be 170 CFM. However, if it is operated at 9 VDC, the speed will be 1300 RPM and airflow would be 88 CFM. Thus, to avoid these anomalies, engineers always take care to minimize power drops. They also try to match the power supply voltage to the application.
  • Speed Tolerances: The speed of fan at 12 VDC is usually 2500 RPM. Many manufacturers fail to indicate the tolerance associated with it. Although these tolerances may differ across manufacturers, typically they are +/- 10%. For instance, if the fan reaches the lower end of tolerance, the airflow due to free air would be only 156 CFM. This sharp fall may have severe effect on the airflow. This decline in airflow must be addressed when designing DC brushless fan.
