What high-pressure or low-pressure applications are suitable for Mini Size Centrifugal Fans?
Typical Applications of Mini Size Centrifugal Fans:
1. High-Pressure Cooling for Electronic Equipment
Utilizing a high-speed single-phase direct-drive or EC motor, it can provide stable airflow under high-pressure (≥400Pa) conditions.
The compact body (133mm, 146mm, 160mm) makes it easy to embed in space-constrained enclosures such as servers and communication equipment.
It quickly extracts hot air using centrifugal force, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of electronic components and extending their lifespan.
2. Low-Pressure Operation of Small Ventilation Systems
It can maintain a good airflow-to-pressure ratio even in low-pressure (≤150Pa) environments.
Suitable for applications requiring localized ventilation, such as instrument cabinets, laboratory workbenches, and mini air conditioners.
The low-noise design ensures a comfortable working environment.
3. Localized Cooling of Mechanical Equipment
For mechanical components that generate localized hot spots, such as high-speed motors and frequency converters, Mini Size centrifugal fans can achieve precise airflow within a medium pressure range.
Its compact structure facilitates direct installation within the equipment, reducing piping losses.
4. Fresh Air and Air Purification Systems
In applications requiring small size and high efficiency, such as VAV (Variable Air Volume) systems and air purifiers, Mini Size centrifugal fans can provide uniform fresh air distribution at pressures as low as 50 Pa.
CE certification ensures compliance with EU mechanical safety standards, making it suitable for international projects.
How does the noise level of Mini Size Centrifugal Fans compare to traditional centrifugal fans?
Noise Level Comparison with Traditional Centrifugal Fans
1. Optimized Structure Reduces Noise
Mini Size centrifugal fans use single-phase direct drive or EC motors, eliminating the mechanical noise of traditional belt drives.
The streamlined design of the inlet and outlet reduces airflow impact noise.
2. Noise Advantages of Small Size
The relatively small impeller diameter, although resulting in high rotational speed, limits the range of airflow turbulence, resulting in an overall noise level approximately 3-5 dB(A) lower than large centrifugal fans.
3. Low-Noise Materials and Manufacturing Process: The casing uses high-density damping material to further suppress vibration propagation.
Precision machining ensures uniform clearance between the impeller and the casing, preventing noise caused by airflow leakage.
4. Actual Test Data (Provided by the Company): At rated speed, the noise level of a Mini-Size centrifugal fan is generally between 45-55 dB(A); while traditional centrifugal fans with the same airflow
volume typically range from 55-65 dB(A).

How to select a model to avoid overload or insufficient power issues with Mini-Size Centrifugal Fans?
1. Determine System Pressure Requirements: First, calculate the required static pressure (Pa) and airflow (m³/h), referring to the corresponding pressure-airflow curve in the product specification table.
Select a model near the target operating point to ensure the fan operates within its rated power range.
2. Consider Motor Drive Type: For applications requiring variable speed adjustment, prioritize EC (brushless DC) motors, which allow for wide-range speed control and avoid overload caused by fixed speed.
Single-phase direct-drive AC motors are suitable for projects with low speed requirements and cost sensitivity.
3. Check Power Margin: When selecting a model, allow at least 10%-15% power margin to accommodate increased power demands due to changes in system resistance or rising ambient temperature.
