4. Persediaan dan Pemasangan
4.1 Memasang Kipas
The NF-A8 5V PWM fan can be mounted using either the provided anti-vibration mounts or standard fan screws.
- Using Anti-vibration Mounts: Gently pull the anti-vibration mounts through the fan's mounting holes and into the desired mounting location. These mounts help reduce noise transfer.
- Using Fan Screws: Secure the fan to your device or chassis using the included fan screws.

4.2 Menyambungkan Kipas
The NF-A8 5V PWM fan offers flexible connection options:
- 4-pin PWM Header: Connect the fan's 4-pin connector directly to a compatible 5V 4-pin PWM fan header on your device. This allows for automatic speed control based on system temperature.
- Kuasa USB: Use the included USB power adaptor cable to power the fan from any standard USB host port (e.g., on a computer, power bank, or USB wall adapter). This connection provides constant fan speed.
- OmniJoin Adaptor Set: For specific proprietary fan headers, use the OmniJoin adaptor set to ensure compatibility. Refer to your device's manual for specific wiring diagrams if using OmniJoin.

5. Operasi
Once properly connected to a 5V power source, the fan will begin to operate. If connected via a 4-pin PWM header, the fan speed will be automatically adjusted by the host device based on its temperature readings. If connected via the USB power adaptor, the fan will operate at a constant speed.
5.1 Flow Acceleration Channels
The fan blades feature Flow Acceleration Channels, which are small ridges on the suction side of the blades. These channels accelerate the airflow in the outer region of the blade, reducing flow separation and improving efficiency and acoustic performance.
Figure 8: Detail of Flow Acceleration Channels on a fan blade.
5.2 SSO2 Bearing
The fan utilizes Noctua's second-generation self-stabilizing oil-pressure bearing (SSO2). This advanced bearing system ensures long-term stability and quiet operation by precisely positioning the rotor axis with a magnetic field.

6. Penyelenggaraan
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Noctua NF-A8 5V PWM fan, periodic cleaning is recommended.
- Penyingkiran habuk: Use a soft brush, compressed air, or a damp cloth to gently remove dust accumulation from the fan blades and frame.
- Elakkan Cecair: Do not immerse the fan in liquids. Ensure the fan is completely dry before reconnecting it to power.
- Tiada Pelinciran Diperlukan: The SSO2 bearing is self-lubricating and does not require additional oil or grease.
7. Penyelesaian masalah
| Masalah | Kemungkinan Punca | Penyelesaian |
|---|---|---|
| Fan does not spin. | vol. salahtage (e.g., 12V instead of 5V). Sambungan longgar. Kuasa tidak mencukupi. | Verify the power source is 5V DC. Pastikan semua kabel disambungkan dengan selamat. Cuba port USB atau penyesuai kuasa yang berbeza. |
| Fan is unusually loud. | Halangan pada bilah kipas. Pemasangan longgar. Fan operating at maximum speed (if PWM controlled). | Periksa dan hilangkan sebarang halangan. Ensure the fan is securely mounted using anti-vibration mounts or screws. If using PWM, check software settings to reduce fan speed. |
| Fan spins intermittently. | Unstable 5V power supply. Sambungan yang salah. | Use a stable 5V power source. Semak dan selamatkan semua sambungan. |
