Voltage regulated fan outputs with speed signal processing.
aquaero 5:
Maximum output power is 19.8 W (1.65 A at 12 V) for each channel. Maximum
power is dynamically limited through temperature monitoring and will decrease
considerably at lower output voltages. In case an output amplifier temperature
rises to ca. 95 °C, the output is set to 100 % power. After cooling down to ca.
70 °C, normal operation will resume. If the temperature rises to ca. 100 °C, the
output will be permanently disabled. To reactivate the output, the aquaero (or
the complete PC) has to be disconnected from power for a short period of time.
Despite this overload protection, the fan outputs are not short-circuit proof!

Special feature “Fan 4”: This connector can be used for conventional fans or
→ →PWM controlled fans. For PWM fans, select “Outputs” “Fans” “Fan 4” from
the menu and set “Control mode” to “PWM controlled”.
aquaero 6:
Maximum current is 2.5 A per output independent of output voltage, resulting in
a maximum power of 30 W at 12 V. Outputs will be switched off if amplifier
temperatures reach a critical level and will automatically be reactivated when
cooled down. If an output current of 3 A is exceeded, the output will be perma-
nently disabled. To reactivate the output, the aquaero (or the complete PC) has
to be disconnected from power for a short period of time. The fan outputs are
short-circuit proof.
All fan connectors can be used for conventional fans or PWM controlled fans.

“Control mode” to “PWM controlled”.
