D5 Next Pumps - Fans only spin at 100%

Samstag, 15. Mai 2021, 23:49

I have nine Noctua NF-A14 iPPC 2000 PWM fans rated at 2.16W max input each connected to a passive Splitty9 that is connected to my D5 Next pump. Using manual control, if I set the fan power to anything less than 100%, the fans will stop spinning. I tried a different pump, Splitty9, and fans to no avail.

According to the product page, the pumps are supposed to support "PWM fan output with up to 25 Watts of power and speed monitoring". 9 * 2.16 = 19.44W, which is less than 25W. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Do you have the fans assigned to a controller? How do you have the controller configured? How do you have the fans configured?

I'm not sure what you mean by "assigned to a controller". The fans are connected to a Splitty9 (passive) which is connected to my D5 Next pump.

How do you have aquasuite configured?

I just remembered what the issue might be. Some Noctua fans are not compliant to the Intel PWM spec and thus don't work great with controllers that follow that spec - such as the one on the D5 Next.

At least, that's my recollection of the subject. Wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong and won't be the last.

i red that often but even on their own spec there's no difference between regular or industrial 12V fans (only a slight diff on the 24V fans tach output)

There was a user here a couple of years ago who ran into this with his Noctuas. He reached out to them and they eventually confirmed the issue and sent him new fans that did work. They made a change in their controllers and the fans manufactured before that split work just fine. That split was a date split and not a model split, so the same SKU can both work and not work depending on its date of manufacture.

This is a well known problem with older fans from the iPPC series. There is also a note about it on Noctuas website:

You can ignore that it only mentions the aquaero. It also affects other controllers.
