Noctua NF-A8 ULN, 80mm, DC Fan, SSO2 Bearing, Beige/Brown

The Noctua NF-A8 ULN is an 80mm cooling fan specifically engineered for applications requiring minimal acoustic output. This unit operates within a standard 80x80x25mm frame, making it suitable for compact chassis, HTPC systems, and specialized small form factor builds. At its standard maximum rotational speed of 1400 RPM, the fan generates an airflow of 34.8 CFM, providing necessary ventilation while maintaining an acoustic signature of 10.4 dB.

The fan utilizes the proprietary SSO2 bearing technology, which is designed to provide rotational stability and ensure an extended operational life rated at 150,000 hours. Power input is handled via a 3-pin connector, requiring 12 V operation and drawing a maximum current of 0.05 A, resulting in 0.6 W power consumption. The included Low Noise Adaptor (LNA) can be utilized to reduce the rotational speed to 1100 RPM, further lowering the acoustic output to 6.5 dB, optimizing the unit for ultra-quiet case cooling purposes.
