Orion Fans Announces Thermally-Controlled AC and DC Fans to Cool Solid State Lightning Systems
Orion Fans has developed a series of thermally-controlled ac and dc fans for cooling solid state lighting. The smart fans deliver high airflow to help prevent premature LED component failure due to excessive heat. The smart fans’ thermal controller increases or decreases the speed of the fans in response to the air temperature, significantly reducing power consumption by as much as 30%. Orion Fans’ LED thermal management solutions are available in multiple sizes and also include heat sinks and custom voltages when applicable.
The thermally-controlled smart ac fans feature a ball bearing design that significantly reduced noise levels and delivers airflows ranging from 62-110 CFM for the OA109AP Series and from 103-212 CFM for the OA172SAP Series. Fans for LED cooling are available with high ac voltages of 308Vac and 480Vac, and custom dc voltages of 28Vdc and 36Vdc as well as standard dc voltages of 5,12,24,48 and 60Vdc. The dc fans can be IP55-sealed for outdoor use or within harsh applications.
"Heat dissipation is a critical function in applications such as high intensity LED warehouse lighting, as a rise in temperature over a long period of time causes degradation of LED life expectancy," said David Luna, Orion Fans’ product marketing manager. "Our environmentally-considerate smart fans are designed to offer a single solution for a number of problems within LED cooling applications. We have expanded our product offering to deliver customized options in both ac and dc voltage models with lead times that are the shortest in the industry."
Pricing starts at $21.00 with lead times ranging from stock to ten weeks, depending on the complexity of and custom heat sink tooling requirements.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules
Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure
Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
