SPAL VA99-ABL315P/R/N-101A/SH Brushless Cooling Fan 12V
The SPAL VA99-ABL315P/R/N-101A/SH is a powerful 12V axial cooling fan equipped with advanced brushless motor technology. Designed for applications requiring high airflow, reliable cooling performance and extended service life, this SPAL fan is suitable for demanding motorsport, automotive and industrial cooling systems.
With a fan diameter of 280mm and a maximum speed of 3,800 rpm, the SPAL VA99-ABL315P/R/N-101A/SH delivers powerful cooling performance. Its sealed brushless motor features IP68 and IP6K9K protection ratings, making it suitable for use in challenging operating environments.
Advanced brushless motor technology
The SPAL VA99-ABL315P/R/N-101A/SH uses a brushless electric motor designed for reliable performance and long operating life. Unlike conventional brushed motors, brushless technology eliminates mechanical carbon brushes, reducing mechanical wear during operation.
Integrated electronic motor control allows the fan to operate within a speed range of 950 to 3,800 rpm. With a suitable compatible controller, the fan speed can be adjusted according to the cooling requirements of the installation.
Depending on operating conditions and duty cycle, the specified service life can reach up to 40,000 operating hours.
Electronic fan speed control with PWM
The SPAL VA99-ABL315P/R/N-101A/SH supports electronic speed control, including PWM control. PWM stands for Pulse Width Modulation and enables electronic adjustment of fan speed.
This allows the airflow to be adapted to the current cooling demand, making the fan particularly suitable for advanced cooling installations where continuous full-speed operation is not required.
A compatible electronic controller must be used in accordance with SPAL's electrical specifications and control requirements.
High-performance cooling for motorsport and automotive applications
Reliable cooling is essential for race cars, rally cars and other high-performance vehicles. The SPAL VA99-ABL315P/R/N-101A/SH can provide forced airflow through radiators and heat exchangers, helping maintain effective cooling when natural airflow is limited.
Typical applications include:
- Race cars and rally cars
- Motorsport and high-performance vehicles
- Engine radiators and water cooling systems
- Oil coolers and heat exchangers
- Custom automotive cooling installations
- Professional industrial cooling systems
- Technical installations with electronic fan speed control
Actual airflow and cooling performance depend on system resistance, radiator construction, installation position and operating conditions. The manufacturer's performance curve should be considered when selecting a suitable cooling fan.
