What this fan is and who needs it
The ebmpapst RG160-28/18NMotor is a 48 V DC centrifugal blower rated at 19 W and 2850 min⁻¹. It delivers up to 209.0 m³/h of free-air flow through a radial outlet. The housing uses fiberglass-reinforced plastic with a steel base plate for durability in industrial or custom cooling builds.
The specification that decides fit
This unit runs on 48 V DC and draws 395 mA, so it requires a 48 V supply capable of at least 19 W. Connection is made via two stripped and tinned AWG22 leads, not a standard PC fan header. Builders without a 48 V source or a way to drive two bare wires cannot use this blower directly.
What the bundled items change
The fan includes integrated electronic protection against reverse polarity, locked rotor and overload. Speed can be controlled from 0 to 100 % via an analog or serial interface, enabling plug-and-play variable airflow without external driver boards. No mounting screws, adapters or PWM cables are supplied.

Questions about this item
What does the 2850 min⁻¹ speed mean for airflow in a real build?
The fan delivers 209.0 m³/h of free-air flow at its rated 2850 min⁻¹, giving strong radial cooling for tight enclosures.
How does the 48 V supply and 2-wire lead limit control options?
It runs on 48 V DC via two stripped AWG22 leads, drawing 395 mA, so speed control needs an external PWM or voltage source.
What mounting space does the 160 mm frame and steel base require?
The fiberglass-reinforced plastic housing with a steel shell base fits standard 160 mm radial cut-outs and screws directly to the chassis.
