Cooling fans

It is well known that fans are often required to cool power electronics. But how do we determine what a correct fan is and how do we ensure that it provides sufficient cooling? The shape of a fan is an important choice option. It has quite an impact on the size and appearance of a device. Every application has its own possibilities and limitations.
For many applications an ordinary axial fan is sufficient, for others a blower or centrifugal fan is the best choice. In addition, a fan is not always used for cooling, but also to remove, for example, toxic gases or bad smells. Please find more details on the next page, about selecting the right axial fan or contact our product specialist.
