NF-A14 PWM | User Manual
Installation
When installing the NF-A14 PWM on a heatsink, radiator or other devices that use a custom mechanism for fan installation (fan clips, proprietary screws, etc.)
please use this mechanism for installation.
When installing the NF-A14 PWM as a case fan, you can either use proprietary clip systems (if your case features a clip system for fan installation) or the
supplied mounting screws and silicone anti-vibration mounts.
In order to install the fan using the silicone mounts, please first pull the silicone mounts through the mounting holes of the case.
Then put the fan onto the silicone mounts and pull them through the mounting holes of the fan:
Connection
If necessary, you can easily remove the NF-A14 PWM's integrated
The NF-A14 PWM comes with a 4-pin PWM fan connector for fully
anti-vibration pads:
automatic speed control via your motherboard's 4-pin PWM fan headers.
Please note that the fan can also be connected to your motherboard's
3-pin fan headers though. When connected to 3-pin fan headers, the
NF-A14 PWM will run at full speed (unless the motherboard supports
voltage based speed control).
If you're using multiple NF-A14 PWM fans, you can use the supplied
y-cable (NA-YC1) to connect several fans to one PWM fan header. This
way, your motherboard will set all the connected fans to run at the same
speed.
The NF-A14 PWM features a short 20cm primary cable in order to help
you minimise cable clutter in typical applications. If you need a longer
cable, please add the supplied 30cm extension (NA-EC1).
The NF-A14 PWM comes with a Low-Noise Adaptor (NA-RC7) that allows
you to reduce the fan speed from 1500 to 1200rpm. You can either use
the adaptor to set the fan to a fixed speed of 1200rpm (if speed control
is deactivated) or to cap the maximum speed to 1200rpm during PWM
speed control.
