Thermally-controlled fans for SSL

3 October 2012 Circuit & System Protection

Orion Fans has developed a series of thermally-controlled AC and DC fans for cooling solid state lighting (SSL). They deliver high airflow to help prevent premature LED component failure due to excessive heat.

The smart fans’ thermal controller increases or decreases the speed of the fans in response to the air temperature, reducing power consumption by as much as 30%. Orion Fans’ LED thermal management solutions are available in multiple sizes and also include heatsinks and custom voltages when applicable.

The AC fans feature a ball bearing design with low noise levels and delivers airflows ranging from 62-110 CFM for the OA109AP series and from 103-212 CFM for the OA172SAP series.

Fans for LED cooling are available with high voltages of 308 V a.c. and 480 V a.c., and custom DC voltages of 28 V and 36 V as well as standard DC voltages of 5, 12, 24, 48 and 60 V. The DC fans can be IP55-sealed for outdoor use or within harsh applications.
