4. Орнотуу жана орнотуу
Follow these steps to install your Noctua fan:
- Prepare the Fan: If you wish to customize the fan's appearance, carefully remove the pre-installed black anti-vibration pads from the corners of the fan. Select your desired color from the included NA-AVP1 chromax pads and firmly press them onto the fan corners.
- Желдеткичти орнотуу: Position the fan in your desired location (e.g., PC case, radiator). Use the included fan screws to secure the fan. Ensure the fan's airflow direction (indicated by arrows on the fan frame) is correct for your cooling setup.
- Желдеткичти туташтыруу: Connect the fan's 4-pin PWM cable to an available 4-pin fan header on your motherboard or fan controller. If the cable length is insufficient, use the provided NA-EC1 30cm extension cable.

5. Иштөө нускамалары
The NF-A14 PWM fan utilizes a 4-pin Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) connection, allowing your motherboard or fan controller to automatically adjust the fan speed based on system temperature. This ensures optimal cooling performance when needed and reduced noise levels during lighter loads.
- Automatic Speed Control: Connect the fan to a 4-pin PWM fan header. The motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or dedicated fan control software can be used to configure fan curves, setting desired speed responses to temperature changes.
- Максималдуу аткаруу: The fan can operate at a maximum rotational speed of 1500 RPM, providing significant airflow and static pressure.
- Тынч иштөө: At lower speeds, the fan operates with minimal noise, rated at a maximum of 24.6 dB(A) at full speed.
6. Ыңгайлаштыруу
The chromax.Black.swap series allows for extensive aesthetic customization. The fan comes with swappable anti-vibration pads in six colors: black, red, white, blue, yellow, and green. These pads not only reduce vibration but also enable you to match the fan's appearance with your system's color scheme.

7. Техникалык тейлөө
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your fan:
- Чаңды тазалоо: Periodically clean the fan blades and frame to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and increase noise. Use compressed air or a soft brush.
- Текшерүү: Check for any obstructions or loose cables that might interfere with the fan's operation.
8. Кыйынчылыктарды
If you encounter issues with your fan, consider the following:
- желдеткич айланбай жатат: Ensure the 4-pin PWM connector is securely attached to the motherboard header. Check BIOS/UEFI settings to confirm the fan header is enabled and configured correctly.
- Ашыкча ызы-чуу: Verify that the fan is securely mounted and not vibrating against the case. Ensure no cables or other components are touching the fan blades. Check fan speed settings in BIOS/UEFI or software; high speeds will naturally produce more noise.
- Начар муздатуу: Confirm the fan's airflow direction is appropriate for your system's cooling design. Ensure there are no significant dust buildups on the fan or any connected heatsinks/radiators.
