Automatic Fan Speed Control - Cooler Master iGreen Power 500W Manual Del Usuario

6. Automatic Fan Speed Control

Exact CFM requirements vary by application and end-use environment, but 60-70 CFM is typical
for the 120mm fan itself. For noise-sensitive applications, it is recommended that a thermally
sensitive fan speed control circuit be used to balance system-level thermal and acoustic
performance. This circuit typically senses the temperature of an internal heat sink and/or incoming
ambient air and adjusts the fan speed as necessary to keep power supply and system component
temperatures within specifications. Please refer to the fan speed control drawing below.
