Press Release
Noctua updates its 24V industrialPPC Fan Series with improved models featuring a Q100 revision. The new fan models uses the novel NE-FD4 motor driver IC that complies with the Automotive Electronics Council’s highly rigorous AEC-Q100 failure-mechanism-based stress test qualification. The new Q100 revision NF-F12 (120mm) and NF-A14 (140mm) models complement the industrialPPC line’s signature rigidity and IP67 ingress protection with extreme electrical robustness and sophisticated inrush current suppression. This makes the new 24V industrialPPC fans tougher than ever making it suitable for automotive applications as well as in harsh and sensitive electronic environments.
New and Improved Motor
The new NE-FD4 motor driver IC used in the Q100 revision models complies with the Automotive Electronics Council’s highly rigorous AEC-Q100 failure-mechanism-based stress test qualification for integrated circuits. Meeting the AEC-Q100 standard’s stringent requirements for burst and surge protection, the new fans’ electrical robustness permits them to be used not only in automotive projects but also in other harsh environments with transients from electric motors and other inductive switching loads.
Stable Power
The fan’s voltage-stabilised inrush current suppression provides a smooth power-up and dramatically reduces power line transients that otherwise could affect other electronic components connected to the power line. This makes the fans safe to use in sensitive electronic environments.
Tough and Rugged
Except for the new NE-FD4 IC and its enhanced electronic compatibility, the specifications and features remain unchanged from those of the previous 24V industrialPPC models. For example, the fans feature the same IP67 class water and dust protection, SSO2 bearings, more than 150,000 hours MTTF and 6 years’ warranty.
Pricing and Availability
The fans are already shipping and will be available shortly with an MSRP of EUR 29.90/USD 34.90 for all models.
