40mm 12V server fan
The SUNON VF40281BX-D180-S9H is a 40mm dual-ball-bearing fan designed for 12V DC systems. It delivers 24CFM airflow at 18000RPM for dense server or workstation chassis. The 4-wire connector enables PWM automatic speed control.
PWM control and compact frame
The 40 x 40 x 28mm frame fits tight 40mm mounting holes in 1U or blade enclosures. PWM support lets the motherboard or controller vary speed between 4.5V and 13.8V. Rated current of 1.00A simplifies power budgeting for multi-fan arrays.
52.1dB at full speed
At 18000RPM the fan produces 52.1dB noise while moving 24CFM. Dual ball bearings sustain high-speed operation with reduced wear. Lower PWM duty cycles cut both airflow and acoustic output for quieter idle periods.

Questions about this item
How long will the double ball bearing last at 18000 RPM under continuous load?
Double ball bearings are rated for extended operation at 18000 RPM and resist wear better than sleeve types under sustained high-speed use.
What noise and heat output should I expect when the fan runs at full speed all day?
At 18000 RPM the fan produces 52.1 dB noise and draws 1.00 A at 12 V, so sustained operation stays within the 4.5 V to 13.8 V working range.
Does my motherboard need a 4-pin PWM header to control this fan?
Yes, the 4-wire connector requires a standard 4-pin PWM header for automatic speed control; a 3-pin header will only run it at fixed voltage.
