Description
Delta AFB03512HA-CF00 (also known as AFB03512HACF00) is a compact, high-reliability DC brushless axial flow cooling fan engineered with a 35 × 35 × 10 mm (1.38 × 1.38 × 0.39 in) micro-footprint. Powered by a nominal 12 VDC supply across a flexible 4.5 to 13.2 VDC operating range, this precision unit delivers an optimal balance of 5.50 CFM (9.36 m³/h) airflow and 0.106 in H₂O (26.4 Pa) static pressure at a rated speed of 7,000 RPM while consuming only 0.72 W nominal power. Built with an impact-resistant UL 94V-0 thermoplastic housing and impeller, the assembly utilizes a high-end dual ball bearing system that ensures an L10 life expectancy of 30,000 hours at 40°C. Electrical connectivity is established via 150 mm UL 1061 AWG#26 lead wires incorporating an open-collector frequency generator (FG) tachometer wire for active host system RPM monitoring and fault detection.
Key Features
