Quiet 60mm fan

[downhiller80]

I want to replace my high speen 60mm that came with my PEP 66 with TWO quiet fans, one sucking one blowing.

I realise I will lose airflow, but I will gain air pressure so the loss in airflow is not as great as you might think.

Should I just get another noisy fan and run them both at 7v or are there quiet ones available?

Do panaflo do fans this small?

Seb, they do make them in 60mm, and it looks like you can get them at Teamawe. I have my doubts about the benefits of the push/pull arrangement on a PEP66, I don't think you'll get more than a little boost over having just one fan. Good luck, and let us know what the outcome is! : )

There is a thread in the For Sale forum with 60mm Panaflos Panaflo Link

Those are the high-rpm "H"-series ones (higher RPM and noise) but that is still an interesting link for those with a need for a fairly powerful 60mm fan. : ) You sure can't complain about the price!

Can anyone tell me what makes Panaflo fans so desirable? The way I see it, they are just "enhanced" sleeve bearing (or hydro bearing as they like to call it) fans, which explains why they are quieter (and also should be cheaper) than longer lasting ball bearing fans.
