Fan 30 x 30 x 7 mm - 5 V, JST-XH connector 2,54 mm
This goes with it
Description
Product Overview
- Axial fan for 5 V power supply, 30*30*7 mm dimensions
- JST-XH connector (2.54 mm pitch) for direct connection to development boards
- Airflow for passive cooling of components and electronic modules
- Lightweight, broadly compatible with standard plug connections
Product Description
An axial fan with a 5 V power supply is suitable wherever electronic components need to be actively cooled. The JST-XH connector fits directly onto the power connections of common microcontroller boards and expansion modules, so no additional connection hardware is required. The compact dimensions of 30 * 30 * 7 mm allow it to be installed in confined enclosures or on prototype layouts.
The fan impeller is driven by a DC motor and generates a continuous airflow in the opposite direction to the impeller rotation. The 5 V supply enables direct operation from the power rail of an Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or similar board, provided that sufficient current is available. If in doubt, use a separate power supply with sufficient current reserve. A PWM pin enables speed control via pulse-width modulation, if supported by the electronics.
Typical applications include cooling regulator modules in robotics projects, managing heat dissipation during extended measurement series in climate chambers or test enclosures, and stabilizing the temperature of computer modules in compact setups. Laminar-flow demonstrations and ventilation of sensor protection chambers are also possible.
For operation, the available current at the 5 V pin must be at least equal to the fan's power consumption; refer to the datasheet or manufacturer's specifications. Do not use force when disconnecting the JST-XH connector; pull it out by the connector housing, not by the cable. Reversing the polarity will damage the motor; check the polarity on the board before connecting the fan.
Safety Notice
The fan impeller rotates rapidly after being switched on and can cause injuries on contact. Keep fingers away during operation and cover the device with a protective grille if any parts remain accessible. Reversing the polarity can cause malfunction or damage; check the current direction before commissioning. This module is intended exclusively for prototypes, testing, and development purposes and is not suitable for installation in household electrical circuits.
