Product Description

NF-A14 industrialPPC-3000 PWM

Conceived for industrial heavy duty applications that require enhanced cooling performance and advanced ingress protection, the NF-A14 industrialPPC (Protected Performance Cooling) is a ruggedised high-speed version of the award-winning retail model. Thanks to the outstanding aerodynamic efficiency of the NF-A14 design and the use of a novel three-phase motor, the industrialPPC version provides superior airflow and pressure capacity while keeping noise levels and power consumption moderate as against comparable high-speed fans. While its fibre-glass reinforced polyamide construction and certified water and dust protection make the NF-A14 industrialPPC suitable for operation in challenging environments, the renowned SSO2 bearing technology ensures an MTTF of over 150.000hrs. Topped off with Noctua’s trusted reliability, the NF-A14 industrialPPC is an ideal choice for highly demanding applications that require superior flow rates and ultimate dependability.

NF-A14 iPPC

AAO frame

Noctua's AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua's proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan's performance/noise efficiency.

iPPC

3000rpm industrialPPC version

Running twice as fast as the 1500rpm retail version, the NF-A14 industrialPPC-3000 provides extreme airflow and pressure performance. Combined with the industrialPPC series' robust polyamide construction and advanced protection features, this makes the fan ideal for challenging industrial applications.

Three-phase motor design

While most axial fans use single-phase motors with 4 slots, Noctua's industrialPPC fans feature a three-phase design with 6 slots, which provides smoother transitions between the slots and thus allows for even higher running smoothness, further reduced vibrations and unprecedented energy efficiency.

IP52 water- and dust protection

Thanks to a special varnish coating that covers the motor and PCB, the NF-A14 industrialPPC complies with the ingress protection rating IP52. This means that it is not only highly dust resistant but also withstands dripping water equivalent to 3mm rainfall per minute.

Fibre-glass reinforced polyamide construction

Both the impeller and the frame of Noctua’s industrialPPC fans are made entirely from fibre-glass reinforced polyamide. This material can withstand temperatures up to 140°C and makes the fans even more robust and break-proof than Noctua’s standard fibre-glass reinforced PBT fans.

ippc warning

Please Note:

The industrialPPC models are high-speed fans for industrial applications. As such, they are not as quiet as other Noctua fans and less suited for low-noise PC builds.

Previously, I had an NF-P14 that was pulling double-duty in the middle of my old NH-D14 heatsink (the other fan that was originally with it currently resides in the case's exhaust slot directly aft of the heatsink). This setup worked fine during winter months, but in recent weeks has resulted in intermittent overheating due to the warmth of the room.Rather than restore the heatsink's stock configuration, I opted to simply beef up the heatsink's fan and move the NF-P14 to the case front to supply it; I'd been intending to replace the low-end Cooler Master fan I had there anyway. As both high airflow and high static pressure were needed...this fan was a bit of a no-brainer, even if it is pricy.First off: if you too have an NH-D14, rest assured that this fan will fit. It won't fit as intended (the original mount kit was designed for 120mm-mount fans, the NF-A14 has 140mm mounts), but the heatsink is wide enough to support the fan, and you'll have a bottom overhang for RAM/VRM/etc cooling as with the original NF-P14. Just make sure that there aren't any components extruding from the board that will interfere with the corners. See attached pictures for my super-exotic mounting method.Secondly: despite Noctua's best efforts, this fan is definitely not quiet at higher speeds. Even throttled at 50%, it's quite noticeable, though it's not unbearable. At 100% (which comes to ~2750rpm on my board...something I find slightly worrying actually), as noted in other reviews, it sounds akin to a small vacuum cleaner. If you plan to run it in a gaming PC, make sure you figure out what speed you need for adequate cooling, and stick to that under load. Look up your CPU to find its maximum safe temperature, and set your fan curve to have it kick up to 100% ~5 degrees before that. The fan has PWM control for a reason...use it! There's no reason to deafen yourself under light or no load.Noctua's site lists the minimum speed as 800rpm, however, my board's minimum PWM setting is able to run it at ~400rpm. I wasn't able to test at what point it becomes "silent", but it certainly is at the lower end. I'd expect it to be no louder than the NF-P14 up to 1300rpm, and I never had a problem with that fan's noise.Finally...it's a solid fan. Noctua, in my experience, makes high-quality stuff; this fan is no exception. The price of it made me handle it carefully, but it didn't feel fragile at all. Even the blades, thin as they are, feel solid...I would recommend not putting your fingers anywhere near them while the fan is running.The box is quite nice, but what you actually get is just barely above OEM-level; the fan and wide-thread screws for plastic fans, nothing more.I imagine that the common user would be disappointed by lack of low-noise adapter and/or splitter, but consider: the fan is PWM (a control method far superior to resistive/voltage-based control), and is rated for more than half an amp at full load. It seems to be commonly accepted that motherboard headers shouldn't be loaded above 1 amp, which would be easily exceeded by pairing two of these at full speed on a single header. I would guess that the cost of including a splitter in every box is a drop in the bucket for Noctua, but they chose to not include one to protect themselves if users decided to overload motherboard headers and potentially burn them out.They can't be held responsible if the user finds a splitter elsewhere and decides to risk it, after all.In summary,It's an expensive fan, costing as much as an 8gb stick of DDR3. But for the price you get a fan that performs well and quietly for day to day use, and unlike Noctua's consumer-grade offerings, can go full-out balls-to-the-wall if high levels of static pressure and airflow are needed. It can be made to fit an NH-D14 with the mildest of adaptation, and (according to reviews and Noctua specs) will directly fit an NH-D15. The included accessories are...well, non-existent, but with a proper setup you won't need them anyway.
