Page 10: Power Supply
3.1.3 Inrush Current The BFS-i06 bearingless fan relies on the inrush current limiter of the power supply and does not have a built- in inrush current limiter. Therefore, high inrush currents may occur if the fan is directly connected to an already powered DC socket. -

Figure 12: Examples of mounting with self-cutting thread inserts (left) and through holes (right) 3.3 Sound Pressure Level The sound pressure level emitted by the BFS-i06 depends strongly on the installation, operating point, and rotational speed. It is recommended that customers measure the sound pressure level after installation of the fan in their setup during typical operation. -
