Award-winning NF-F12 design

Having received more than 150 awards and recommendations from the international press, Noctua's NF-F12 has become a proven premium choice for 120mm cooling needs. Its renowned efficiency has convinced tens of thousands of customers worldwide.

3000rpm industrialPPC version

Running twice as fast as the 1500rpm retail version, the NF-F12 industrialPPC-3000 PWM provides extreme airflow and pressure performance. Combined with the industrialPPC series' robust polyamide construction and advanced protection features, the fan is ideal for challenging industrial applications.

---

24V SP version

The industrialPPC 24V SP models use Noctua's new NE-FD5 high-performance single-phase PWM motor driver IC. Thanks to its excellent commutation efficiency, the NE-FD5 enables the SP versions to achieve exactly the same performance as previous models with three-phase motors.

---

Lower speed and noise levels in 12V PC environments

While the industrialPPC 24V model has been designed with 24V industrial applications in mind, it runs at a maximum speed of around 1050rpm in 12V PC environments. It can be slowed down further via PWM, thus combining industrialPPC features and design with Noctua's signature quietness.

---

NE-FD5 PWM IC with SCD

The fan uses Noctua's custom-designed NE-FD5 PWM IC for 24V single-phase motors to support fully automatic PWM speed control. The NE-FD5 provides excellent energy efficiency and integrates Noctua's proprietary Smooth Commutation Drive (SCD) technology, suppressing PWM switching noise and thus making the fan quieter at lower speeds.

---

High electrical robustness

Meeting stringent burst and surge protection requirements, the 24V SP version's high electrical robustness permits the fan to be used in automotive projects and other harsh environments with transients from electric motors and other inductive switching loads.

---

Inrush current suppression

The fan's voltage-stabilised inrush current suppression provides a smooth power-up and dramatically reduces power line transients that otherwise could affect other electronic components connected to the power line. This makes the fan safe to use in sensitive electronic environments.

---

Certified IP67 water- and dust protection

The motor and PCB of the IP67 version are entirely cast in a special, highly heat-conductive resin that combines thoroughgoing protection and effective motor heat dissipation. Complying with the ingress protection rating IP67, this fan is fully dust-tight and completely waterproof up to 1m water depth.

---

Fibreglass reinforced polyamide construction.

The impeller and the frame of Noctua's industrialPPC fans are made entirely from fibre-glass reinforced polyamide. This material can withstand temperatures up to 140°C, making the fans even more robust and break-proof than Noctua's standard fibre-glass reinforced PBT fans.

---

Focused Flow™ frame

Designed for pressure-demanding applications such as heatsinks and radiators, the Focused Flow™ frame features eleven stator guide vanes that straighten, channel and focus the airflow, which allows the NF-F12 to rival the performance of conventional fans running at much faster speeds.

---

Varying Angular Distance and Vortex Control Notches

The NF-F12's stator guide vanes are set out in Varying Angular Distance and feature Vortex-Control Notches. Both measures help to spread the noise emission over a broader frequency spectrum and thus make the fan's sound pattern more agreeable to the human ear.

---

Heptaperf™ Impeller

Custom designed for the new Focused Flow™ frame and to work in tandem with the eleven stator guide vanes, the NF-F12's seven-blade Heptaperf™ impeller has been carefully optimised to achieve a perfect balance between power and quiet.

---

Stepped Inlet Design

Noctua's Stepped Inlet Design adds turbulence to the influx to facilitate the transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow, which reduces tonal intake noise, improves flow attachment and increases suction capacity, especially in space-restricted environments.

---

Inner Surface Microstructures

With the tips of the fan blades ploughing through the boundary layer created by the Inner Surface Microstructures, flow separation from the suction side of the blades is significantly suppressed, which results in reduced blade passing noise and improved airflow and pressure efficiency.

---

Integrated anti-vibration pads

Integrated anti-vibration pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard screws and other mounting systems.

---

SSO2 Bearing

The NF-F12 industrialPPC features the further optimised second generation of Noctua's renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis for better stabilisation, precision and durability.

---

Metal bearing shell

The NF-F12 industrialPPC sports a CNC milled bearing shell made entirely from brass to guarantee the highest possible manufacturing precision, minimum tolerance, and excellent long-term stability.

---

6-year manufacturer's warranty

Noctua fans are renowned for their impeccable quality and outstanding longevity. Like all Noctua fans, the NF-F12 industrialPPC features an MTTF rating of over 150.000 hours and a full 6-year manufacturer's warranty.
