Cooling Fan: Fan Inrush Current (Reference value)

Generally, a breaker (wiring circuit breaker) is used to prevent overcurrent from flowing due to a wiring short circuit or other factor.

Fans

When selecting a breaker, multiply the "current" listed in the specifications by the multiplier in the table below to obtain a reference value for inrush current.

Note

  • The inrush current value is based on an ambient temperature of 25 °C. It may fluctuate depending on the frequency of power supply startup and the ambient temperature.
