Can I plug this 30W fan directly into my desktop PC motherboard?

No, most standard desktop motherboard headers only support up to 1A (12W), so this 30W (2.5A) fan requires a dedicated high-amperage controller or direct PSU connection to prevent damage.

Is this fan suitable for a quiet home theater PC (HTPC)?

No, this is an industrial-grade server fan that produces significant noise due to its extreme RPM and massive airflow.

What do the four wires on the connector do?

The four wires typically correspond to Ground (Black), +12V Power (Yellow), Tachometer/Speed Sensor (Green), and PWM Control Signal (Blue).

Can I use this to replace a broken fan in my ASIC miner?

Yes, the 6038 form factor and high static pressure make it an excellent replacement for cryptocurrency mining equipment.

Do you test these fans before selling them at your Sham Shui Po store?

Yes, our technical team bench-tests high-power fans using a dedicated power supply to ensure they meet voltage and current specifications before sale.

SUNON 6038 High-Speed Server Fan 12V 30W

Brand: SUNON
SKU: 21FN000223
Price: 15.0 HKD
Availability: InStock

Short Product Description

The SUNON PSD1206PMBX-A is an ultra-high-speed 60x60x38mm server cooling fan engineered to deliver massive airflow for demanding industrial applications. Rated at 12V and 30W, this 4-pin PWM fan is ideal for 1U/2U rackmount servers, ASIC miners, and heavy-duty workstation cooling. Bench-tested by our technicians, it provides extreme static pressure and cooling performance where thermal management is the absolute priority.

Key Features

Massive Airflow: The 30W high-speed motor delivers extreme static pressure and CFM to cool dense server environments.
PWM Speed Control: The 4-pin interface allows for dynamic RPM adjustment via a compatible motherboard or fan controller.
Industrial Durability: Built for 24/7 continuous operation in demanding thermal environments.
Standard 6038 Form Factor: The 60x60x38mm dimensions fit perfectly into standard 1U/2U server racks and mining equipment.
Plug-and-Play Replacement: Comes with a standard 4-pin connector and protective cable sleeving for easy installation.

Full Product Description

Extreme Cooling for Industrial and Server Applications

This SUNON 6038 fan is engineered to move a massive volume of air to keep high-density electronics cool under extreme loads. Designed for 24/7 operation in harsh environments, it is the perfect replacement fan for rackmount servers, cryptocurrency mining rigs, and industrial control cabinets that require aggressive thermal management. Its robust 30W motor ensures that heat is rapidly exhausted from tightly packed chassis.

4-Pin PWM Control for Precision Cooling

The built-in 4-pin connector allows your motherboard or dedicated fan controller to dynamically adjust the fan speed based on real-time system temperatures. This ensures you get maximum RPM and airflow when the system is under heavy load, while maintaining efficient power usage and slightly reduced noise during idle periods.

Technician Tip

Our Sun Cheong Computer Co. Ltd. technicians have bench-tested this specific model and confirmed its extreme power draw (up to 2.5A peak at 12V). Do not connect this 30W fan directly to a standard consumer desktop motherboard fan header, as it will likely burn out the port (which is usually rated for only 1A). Always use a dedicated high-amperage fan hub or power it directly from the power supply, routing only the PWM and tachometer signal wires to the motherboard.
