Noctua commercializza le ventole NF-S12B FLX e NF-S12B ULN

Noctua ha annunciato e lanciato contestualmente sul mercato la nuova ventola ad alte prestazioni e bassa rumorosità siglata NF-S12B, che al momento è disponibile in due varianti, la NF-S12B FLX e la NF-S12B ULN.

I due modelli hanno caratteristiche molto simili, come il supporto della tecnologia proprietaria Smooth Commutation Drive 2, o in breve SCD2, che garantisce una bassa rumorosità al variare delle condizioni di utilizzo, e la concezione geometrica basata su "Bevelled Blade Tip", che assicura una migliore gestione dei flussi d'aria, senza incremento della rumorosità, rispetto alla generazione precedente.

NF-S12B FLX e NF-S12B ULN differiscono tra loro per i regimi di rotazione supportati: 1200/900/600 RPM per la versione FLX (Flexibility) e 700/500 RPM per la ULN (Ultra-Low-Noise). Entrambe le ventole hanno un MSRP pari a €19.90.

Vienna, April 21st 2009 - Noctua today introduced the new NF-S12B 120mm premium fan. Succeeding the vastly successful NF-S12, the NF-S12B is a next generation quiet fan featuring Noctua's advanced SCD2 technology as well as a highly optimised blade geometry with Bevelled Blade Tips that improves its award-winning predecessor's airflow efficiency by up to 10%.

"Our popular NF-S12 series is renowned for its excellent airflow/noise ratio, so further improving it was by no means an easy feat", explains Mag. Roland Mossig, Noctua CEO. "It took us quite a lot of time and effort, but we couldn't be happier with the result. The new NF-S12B doesn't only provide more airflow at the same noise level than the original NF-S12, it also produces higher static pressure."

Building on the proven basis of the original NF-S12 impeller, the design goal for the NF-S12B was to further improve its predecessor's much acclaimed airflow/noise ratio and to increase static pressure in order to allow for a broader range of applications. These goals have been achieved by reducing the tip clearance at the leading edge and adding Bevelled Blade-Tips, a feature first introduced with the NF-B9 92mm fan.

In addition to its highly optimised impeller design, the NF-S12B features Noctua's time-tested premium quality SSO-Bearing as well as Smooth Commutation Drive 2, the latest version of Noctua's advanced drive system that ensures superb running smoothness by eliminating torque variations and switching noises.

The NF-S12B is available in two versions: Whereas the FLX (Flexibility) version provides 1200, 900 and 600 rpm speed settings via the supplied Low-Noise and Ultra-Low-Noise Adapters in order to fine-tune it for superior airflow or maximum quietness, the ULN (Ultra-Low-Noise) version with 700/500rpm speed settings is tailor made for silent enthusiasts who demand super-slow running speeds and utmost quietness of operation.

Pricing and Availability:
The NF-S12B FLX and NF-S12B ULN are available immediately at a suggested retail price of EUR 19.90 / USD 24.90.
