Axial accessory fan Akasa 50x50x10 mm black, model DFS501012M, 5V DC

Akasa 50x50x10 black OEM additional fan is a compact 50 x 50 x 10 mm cooling fan designed for small enclosures, electronics and aftermarket cooling upgrades. It operates at a rated voltage of 12V DC and uses a sleeve bearing with an expected life of approximately 30,000 hours. The fan delivers a moderate airflow with low acoustic output, suitable where space is limited and quiet operation is preferred.

Advantages

The fan offers a compact size for tight spaces, a standard 3-pin connector for easy installation and a sleeve bearing design that provides reliable operation for general-purpose cooling. With a maximum rotational speed of 4500 RPM it balances airflow and noise, making it appropriate for small electronics and auxiliary cooling tasks.

Suitable for

• Cooling small electronic enclosures and control units
• Supplementary airflow in desktop PCs, routers or NAS units
• Replacement or upgrade for similarly sized OEM fans

How to use

Install the fan in the available 50 x 50 mm mounting location using appropriate screws or clips, ensuring correct airflow orientation for intake or exhaust. Connect the 3-pin connector to a compatible 12V fan header or controller, observing polarity. Avoid placing the fan where it may contact cables or components that could obstruct the blades. Periodically check for dust buildup and clean as needed to maintain performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match the fan's airflow direction to your system cooling scheme and mount it securely to minimise vibration. In systems requiring longer continuous operation, consider fans with ball bearings for higher durability; use this Akasa 50x50x10 fan for standard auxiliary cooling where compact size and moderate noise are priorities.
