Description
Sunon PF40561BX-1000U-S9H (also known as PF40561BX1000US9H) is a high-pressure 40 x 40 x 56 mm (1.57 x 1.57 x 2.20 in) dual counter-rotating DC tubeaxial cooling fan engineered for dense thermal enclosures. Operating on a nominal 12 VDC supply, the dual-rotor assembly delivers a synchronized speed of 21,500 RPM on the intake impeller and 18,000 RPM on the exhaust impeller, generating an airflow rating of 31.7 CFM (53.86 m³/h) and an impressive static pressure of 3.76 in H₂O (935.6 Pa). Built with UL 94V-0 rated thermoplastic PBT housings and dual precision ball bearings, the unit draws 1.390 A (16.68 W average) under continuous duty. The motor incorporates locked-rotor auto-restart, reverse polarity protection, integrated frequency generator (FG) tachometer speed feedback, and 25 kHz PWM input control.
Key Features
- Counter-Rotating Impellers: Dual motorized stages achieve 21,500/18,000 RPM to overcome extreme static backpressure in confined channels.
- Extreme Static Pressure: Delivers 3.76 in H₂O static head and 31.7 CFM airflow for dense thermal packaging.
- Precision Ball Bearings: Heavy-duty mechanical ball bearing system guarantees 70,000 hours of continuous service life at 40°C.
- Intelligent Signal Control: Integrated open-collector FG tachometer feedback and wide-range PWM speed control allow fine thermal throttling.
- Comprehensive Motor Safety: Features automatic locked-rotor recovery restart within 10 seconds and polarity protection in a UL94V-0 frame.
