NMB-MAT 12vdc Brushless PWM Fan Great for Laser Boxes






That might work.:crackup:

They are in the mail.:beer:
 
Just got 16 of these in the mail today from DTR (thanks for the super fast shipping) and I was pleasantly surprised at how powerful these things are. I pulled one out and hooked it up to my mastech variable power supply, gave it some juice and received a surprising blast of air. They are also very good at handling extra voltage. They're working envelope is 12v at .46 amps but I decided to see how far they could go. I am currently running one at 18v and it seems to be taking it completely in stride. It's been running for 5 hours now and it's going strong. I plan on leaving it on for 12 hours to see what happens.

This is really just a torture test, the fact that it's still running fine after 5 hours is great. I can't wait to implement these fans into my unlimited duty cycle lasers. :D

A little update from my last post. I went to check on the fan that I had running for 12 hours and it was still going fine. So I decided to leave it and see how it would handle 48 hours nonstop running 19V@.4 amps. Well when I checked on it at the 48 hour mark IT WAS STILL RUNNING FINE. These things are great. Considering it can handle 48 hours continuous runtime at 19V I don't foresee having to worry about these things failing while cooling a laser which is always a concern.

EDIT- Does anyone know where to find a data sheet for these fans? I'm curious to see if they list an estimated life time.

Just saw your edit. I don't see them listed on their website so they may be a custom job for Ca*io.

Hey DTR, I just tried some of these fans and they are amazing. Really powerful for such a small fan. I pushed it all the way to 21V steady and at 22V it blew. Lol, just curious how much power I can push them to.

Wow just saw this. 21V.:eek:
 
Yes, it was drawing near the 450 mA mark at 21V. I don't think many people would really drive these past 12V though, just a fun experiment. :yh:
 
How much would shipping be if I was to order 18 fans? My postcode is 2190 :)

I don't need fast shipping since I have no use for them ATM
