4. Enstalasyon ak Enstalasyon
4.1 Enstalasyon Vantilatè a
The FHS 120X fan is designed for standard 120mm fan mounts in server racks, industrial enclosures, or PC cases. Ensure proper airflow direction for your cooling needs. The fan typically has an arrow indicating airflow direction on its side frame.

Figi 4.1: Pwofesyonèl bò kotefile of the FHS 120X fan, highlighting its 38mm thickness.
- Identify the desired mounting location and ensure sufficient clearance for the fan and its airflow.
- Align the fan with the mounting holes.
- Secure the fan using the provided mounting screws. Do not overtighten.
- Attach the fan grill to the intake or exhaust side as needed for safety and protection.
4.2 Koneksyon elektrik
The FHS 120X fan uses a 4-pin PWM connector for power and speed control. It also includes a SATA power connector for direct power delivery, especially useful in systems where motherboard fan headers may not provide sufficient power for high-speed industrial fans.

Figure 4.3: The SATA power connector for direct power supply.
- Connect the 4-pin PWM connector to a compatible fan header on your motherboard or fan controller. This allows for automatic or manual speed control.
- Connect the SATA power connector to an available SATA power cable from your power supply unit (PSU). This provides the necessary power for the fan's operation.

5. Operasyon
5.1 Kontwòl PWM
The 4-pin PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) function allows for dynamic adjustment of the fan's rotational speed based on system temperature or user-defined settings. This enables efficient cooling while minimizing noise when full speed is not required.
- Kontwòl otomatik: Most motherboards and fan controllers can automatically adjust fan speed based on CPU or system temperatures.
- Manyèl kontwòl: Software utilities provided by your motherboard manufacturer or third-party fan control software can be used to set custom fan curves or fixed speeds.

5.2 Nivo Bri
At its maximum rotational speed of 4,000 RPM, the FHS 120X fan can generate a noise level of up to 51.8 dBA. This is typical for high-performance industrial fans designed for maximum airflow and static pressure. Utilizing PWM control to reduce fan speed when high cooling is not necessary will significantly lower noise output.
6. Antretyen
The SilverStone FHS 120X fan is designed for long-term reliability with its dual ball bearing system, requiring minimal maintenance. However, periodic cleaning is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
- Retire pousyè: Regularly inspect the fan blades and grill for dust accumulation. Use compressed air or a soft brush to gently remove dust.
- Enspeksyon: Periodically check the fan for any signs of damage or unusual noise.
- Pouvwa Off: Always disconnect power to the system before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
