Fan for 140 mm high performance case

Overview
Noctua NF-A14 industrialPPC: Performance without compromise
Specially designed for demanding industrial environments with high cooling performance, safety and protection requirements, the NF-A14 industrialPPC (Protected Performance Cooling) offers more power and robustness than the original Retail model for which the brand is renowned.

Thanks to its outstanding design performance and the use of an all-new three-phase motor, the NF-A14 industrialPPC delivers superior airflow and pressure levels while maintaining low noise levels and low power consumption compared to equivalent high-efficiency models on the market. The NF-A14 industrialPPC 's glass-fibre reinforced polyamide chassis and certified level of water and dust protection make it ideal for use in demanding environments.

The SSO2 Bearing has an MTBF of over 150,000 hours. With proven reliability and a 6-year manufacturer's warranty, the NF-A14 industrialPPC is the ideal choice for the most extreme applications requiring increased airflow and uncompromising reliability.

NF-A14: a proven and popular design
The NF-A14 has established itself as THE top-of-the-range solution for 140mm ventilation needs. Its proven efficiency has convinced tens of thousands of customers worldwide.
industrialPPC version - 3000 rpm
Thanks to its high rotation speed (3000 rpm), the NF-A14 industrialPPC-3000 PWM offers a significant performance gain compared to the 2500 rpm of the retail model.
Three-phase motor
Noctua's industrialPPC fans are equipped with a three-phase motor that ensures smoother overall operation, significantly reduced vibration and unprecedented energy efficiency.
Highest energy efficiency
The three-phase motor fitted to the industrialPPC version provides a 10% reduction in consumption at comparative speed (2000 rpm).
Glass fibre reinforced polyamide construction
The impeller and frame of the Noctua industrialPPC fans are made entirely of glass-fibre reinforced polyamide. This process provides exceptional strength and durability.
Protection against water and dust
This level of protection not only ensures that this model has excellent resistance to dust deposits, but also resists possible water drops (the equivalent of 3mm of rain per minute).
Flow Acceleration Channels
The NF-A14 is equipped with Flow Acceleration Channels on the suction side of the blades. By creating flow acceleration at the most sensitive part of the blades, i.e. at the tips, the phenomenon of flow separation/dispersion is minimised.
AAO frame
Noctua's AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames are equipped with anti-vibration mounts and benefit from exclusive optimisations to push the limits of performance and silence even further.
Stepped Inlet Design
Noctua's Stepped Inlet design adds turbulence to the incoming flow, allowing a gradual transition from laminar to turbulent flow. This reduces initial noise emissions, improves flow cohesion and increases suction capacity.
Inner Surface Microstructures
The tips of the blades move close to the inner surface of the duct. The flow separation that takes place at the suction level is almost non-existent. This optimisation reduces noise emissions from blade movement, improves airflow and pressure levels.
Integrated anti-vibration dampers
The integrated anti-vibration mounts, made of extra soft silicone, reduce the transmission of micro-vibrations while ensuring compatibility with fan mounting systems and fan clips.
SSO2 Bearing
The NF-A14 industrialPPC is equipped with the second generation of Noctua's renowned SSO Bearing, which benefits from the latest technological advances.
Metal Bearings
To ensure the highest quality of workmanship, durability and stability, the NF-A14 industrialPPC is equipped with a CNC machined solid copper bearing.
Exclusive PWM IC with SCD
Compatible with PWM automated speed control systems, the NF-A14 features the exclusive NE-FD2 PWM IC for three-phase motors.
6-year manufacturer's warranty
As with all Noctua models, the NF-A14 industrialPPC has an MTBF of over 150,000 hours and is backed by a full 6-year manufacturer's warranty.
Optional modifications for industrial customers
In order to meet the expectations of industrial customers, various accessories, options, custom packaging and certifications are available upon request.

    excellent

    Excellent, I put it on my watercooling and I have a quite important decrease of the temperature. But be careful, it is very noisy, you have to set the operating curve in the bios for an optimal balance. I don't give it a 10/10 but a 9/10 for the noise, but otherwise I recommend it without any worries.

    It's blowing hard!

    I changed the 3 fans that were on my Corsair Hydro Series H150i PRO, I put 3 on the front, when set to the processor temperature, they run around 1500 - 2000 RPM and are still not too noisy (for me). The airflow is much more consistent than the fans that come with the case. The cables are strong.

    Excellent industrial fan

    This fan is an industrial fan!
    It says "industrial" in the name of the product, in the industry efficiency is more important than comfort. This is exactly what this product does.

    Noctua also states very clearly on their website: if you want quiet fans, go for the chroma range...

    Buy this fan knowingly:
    It is ultra efficient but also very noisy. It is made for what it was made for: an industrial application!
    Up to 50% of the noise is largely tolerable during the day. Beyond that, use noise-cancelling headphones, good insulating headphones or stand away from your PC.

    This fan is to be used on a High Amp port of the motherboard (approx. 3A) to be able to manage its speed correctly. You can find one on the Asus ROG motherboards.

    I strongly advise you to calibrate the usage curve via the bios or via a software. Also, if you can, set a delay on the fan response time to avoid the yo-yo effects of temperature variations.

    excellent fans but...

    one of the two i ordered makes a continuous buzzing noise and one of the anti noise pads is missing when i open the box, bad surprise. I'm not going to send it back because of that, but it's a pity for the lack of rigour in the quality control of the product, 1 out of 2 that works, but makes noise and one of the anti-noise pads is missing from the bundle, which is already completely empty (no extension cord or anything else apart from 4 screws) ... I don't find that normal or acceptable at this price.
