Connection CAUTION: Being a 5V fan, the NF-A20 5V can not be run at 12V and will be damaged when used with typical 12V power sources such as PC mainboard fan headers. The NF-A20 5V features a standard 3-pin fan connector. However, please note that the fan can also be connected to standard 4-pin fan headers.

The black lead of the adaptor has to be matched with the original GND lead and the red adaptor cable with the original +5V lead. Many fan cables use the same colours as the OmniJoin adaptor, but please note that there is no guarantee for this, so make sure to correctly identify the GND and +5V leads of the original fan.

Please don’t use a vacuum cleaner as this may apply excessive force to the fan. In order to ensure flawless operation over many years of usage, the NF-A20 5V’s premium grade SSO2 bearing is fully sealed to prevent the entering of fine dust particles.
