Noctua NF-A12x25 G2 PWM Sx2 PP Sterrox 120mm Push Pull tuuletinsarja (2kpl)

The NF-A12x25 G2 PWM Sx2-PP is a set of two NF-A12x25 G2 PWM 120mm fans that are offset in speed, which can be beneficial in push-pull operation as well as in situations where two or more fans are operating side by side, such as in case cooling applications or on 240 and 360mm water cooling radiators. When two fans are running at almost the same, constant speed in a push-pull configuration or, albeit to a lesser extent, side by side, their acoustic interaction can lead to undesirable harmonic phenomena such as intermittent vibrations or periodic humming due to interference, which can be heard as beat frequencies. Therefore, the two NF-A12x25 G2 PWM fans contained in the Sx2-PP set are slightly offset in speed (+/- ~50rpm) in order to avoid such phenomena. This fine-tuning is made possible by the fans’ novel etaPERF™ motor and its NE-FD6 driver IC that achieves extremely precise speed control and, thanks to its SupraTorque™ feature, can leverage extra torque headroom to keep the exact desired speed even when working against significant flow resistance such as on water cooling radiators and heatsinks. With one fan running ~50rpm slower (PPA) and one ~50rpm faster (PPB), the overall cooling performance can be kept the same while efficiently preventing intermittent vibrations or periodic humming. Since the perception of beat frequencies can vary depending on psychoacoustic preferences, users can easily further optimise acoustics by slowing the PPA fan down a little more through PWM control or the supplied Low-Noise-Adaptor, which will result in an even smoother sound signature due to the increased offset. If more than two fans are running side by side, customers can either combine multiple Sx2-PP sets or add a single NF-A12x25 G2 PWM fan and reduce its speed to the level of the PPA model (~1750rpm) using PWM control in order to make sure that neighbouring fans are never running at the same speed.
