Splashproof fans measure up to saltwater test

A new range of San Ace splash proof fans features a silicon sealed motor housing, which means the fan is capable of withstanding the 1000-hour salt-water spray test.

EAO has expanded its portfolio of Sanyo Denki cooling fans with the addition of a new range of San Ace splash proof fans.

The design of the new, IPX7 protection rated, San Ace fan features a silicon sealed motor housing.

Thanks to this, the fan is capable of withstanding the 1000-hour salt-water spray test.

San Ace is therefore ideal for use in those environments where a much higher degree of moisture and humidity than normal is present.

The range which comes in four different frame sizes is available in 12V, 24V or 48V DC.

Other options include low, medium and high-speed versions and the inclusion of either a pulse sensor to monitor the operating speed of the fan or a lock sensor to determine whether the fan motor is running or not.

High airflow and high static pressure are strong features of the range with 1.06 m3/min typically attained with the 80x20mm version (static pressure 39 Pascals), 1.38 m?n with the 92x25mm version (static pressure 45 Pascals), 3.0 m3/min with the 120x38mm (static pressure 70 Pascals) version and 5.9 m3/min with the 140x51mm version (static pressure 142 Pascals).

These fans, with UL, TUV and CSA approval, have an L10 life expectancy of 100,000 hours measured at an ambient temperature of 60degC.

Operating temperatures range from -10 to +60C and noise levels from 22 to 52 dB.
