Thermal Solutions specialist GELID Solutions unveils the IPX 4 PWM, IPX 6 PWM and IPX 8 PWM - a brand new series of fans for industrial applications. The IPX Industrial Fan series provides protection against harmful deposits of dust and water from harsh environments. It is IP56 rated and allows continuous operation in extreme conditions and high humidity industrial environments.

The IPX 4 PWM, IPX 6 PWM and IPX 8 PWM feature precisely balanced impeller which guarantees stable operation even at the highest rotation speeds possible. The IPX 4 PWM, IPX 6 PWM and IPX 8 PWM also integrate ultra-durable mechanics, a double ball-bearing configuration from the renowned Japanese manufacturer NMB Tech. The new Smart PWM IC, designed specifically for the IPX Industrial Fan series, eliminates any clicking noise and controls fan speed according to heat-source load. The IPX 4 PWM, IPX 6 PWM and IPX 8 PWM have comprehensively optimized blades, the result of software simulations and real-prototype test which provide higher performance and dramatically improved airflow distribution without increasing noise level.



The IPX Industrial Fan series is now including:
  • IPX 4 PWM (40mm fan with PWM)
  • IPX 6 PWM (60mm fan with PWM)
  • IPX 8 PWM (80mm fan with PWM)
The IPX Industrial Fan series conforms to RoHS, WEEE, IP56 and carries a 5-year warranty.

"When you need a fan to be used in extreme environmental conditions you are often in trouble as typical fans can't withstand even a small amounts of harmful dust or humidity. The IPX fans make it easy now: the series fully complies with the IP56 protection rating, you can use our industrial fans on your boat, in your garage, in your storehouse, any other dusty or high-humidity places", said Gebhard Scherrer, Sales Director of GELID Solutions Ltd.

MSRP:
  • IPX 4 PWM: USD 9.90/ EUR 8.70
  • IPX 6 PWM: USD 11/ EUR 9.65
  • IPX 8 PWM: USD 11/ EUR 9.65

For a moment, I thought that they release IP X8 rated fan. Clever naming, clever...

Probably because these are awesome for mini PCs, Raspberry Pi , chipset coolers, or anywhere else a small quiet high quality fan is needed. They don't flow massive amounts of air, but it's precisely aimed. As long as they're really as quiet as their specs indicate, 10-11 dollars is a steal. Most available fans in this size range are noisy crap that die quickly and wouldn't blow out a match, but still cost $10 in RadioShack or Best Buy.

This is a tech site, it covers all technology, not just the "fun" kind. We've seen industrial PCs in the news feed regularly.

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
this is actually good news but i need 20mm for my nortel switches.

I also wish I was a fly on the room when a marketing person grabbed some kid from the mail room and was like "we have a photo shoot I need you to take these and cover them with for for us."
