It would appear you made a good choice in fan selection.... FYI, I use sorbothane for isolators and other damping needs. Works great. Noise reduction depends on making sure to interrupt the connection between the fan body and the mounting point in the case.... to include not letting the same fastener touch both the solid fan chassis and the radio chassis, etc. Next is to prevent airflow short circuits... et al.
The additional 10mm of case thickness doesn't interfere with anything? ______________________ Clay Autery, KY5G MONTAC Enterprises (318) 518-1389 On 2/11/2017 4:33 PM, Harry Yingst via Elecraft wrote: > New Fan : Noctua NF-A6x25 FLXAirflow : 17 cfm (29.2 m3h converted to > cfm)Noise : 19.3dbSpeed : 3000 RPM (at 12 v)Static Pressure : 2.18 mmCutent : > 120 mA (.12 A) > > Original Fan : UTEC AT6015L-12L2B-ND2Airflow : 15.4 cfmNoise : 24.8Speed : > 3000 RPM (at 12v)Static Pressure : 2.21mmCurrent : 100 mA > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
