Watch out when selecting fans! When selecting a fan, it is often more useful to look at the static pressure instead of the total pressure. Our Danish colleague Torben Lintrup Kirkholt explains why this is the case and talks about why manufacturer details based on overall pressure should be treated with caution.»
Cooling for the future of electromobility Range and charging times are important parameters for electric vehicles. This is why fast charging processes are becoming increasingly popular and high-performance cooling concepts are required. They need to be well integrated and work reliably for a long time, even under harsh conditions. »
Compact fans for the technologies of the future The digital world is developing at a fast pace. Communications technology, data centers, as well as technologies such as indoor farming all need ever more powerful electronics to process enormous data flows. At the same time, packing density is rising inexorably. This makes cooling a challenge. Now a new compact fan is opening up interesting possibilities; with an edge dimension of only 10 cm, it delivers up to well over 500 m³ of air per hour.»
Power fans for cooling electronics The digital world is developing at a breathtaking pace. However, cooling is becoming a challenge, both in telecommunications and automation. It’s hardly possible to install more powerful fans or increase the number of them, as compact solutions are in demand and noise protection requirements must be complied with. A new compact fan from ebm-papst is a future-proof alternative, as it delivers up to 50% more air performance than conventional solutions.»
“Axial and centrifugal in one fan” The DiaForce diagonal compact fan is revolutionizing electronics cooling. Christian Stern, Product Manager at ebm-papst in St. Georgen, reveals why this is.»
Increasing fan efficiency The European Union’s Ecodesign Directive (ErP Directive), is the basis for assessing the efficiency of various components and devices. For example, the minimum efficiency of fans is specified in the fan regulation, Regulation (EU) No. 327/2011, which also considers fans that are built into refrigeration, air conditioning and ventilation equipment. Such equipment can only be granted a CE marking if its fans satisfy the fan regulation’s requirements.»
Partying until the sparks fly Concerts, festivals and sports events would only be half as much fun without impressive special effects. But since lots of regulations must be complied with for pyrotechnics, Magic FX focuses on other visual effects — as it did with its latest product, the Sparxtar.»

Active power-factor correction minimizes circuit feedback For the first time, GreenTech EC fans with integrated, active power-factor correction (PFC) and a three-phase supply are now able to fulfill the high requirements imposed on data centers with regard to circuit feedback and the harmonic distortion of the input current.»
The formula for the data transfer time In a Local Interconnect Network (LIN) bus, the data transfer time is an important parameter for the communication between master and slave devices.»
Smart electronics cooling for industrial applications In control cabinets hot spots can arise, which can reach temperatures of over 90 °C and cause the destruction of sensitive electronics. Filter fans, units that combine fans and dust filters, can help by conveying excess heat out of control cabinets and electronics housings while also preventing the ingress of dirt particles.»
The art of air conditioning ENGIE Services U.S., a division of global energy leader ENGIE, has a clear mission: helping its customers to save energy. It manages to do so at a large data center thanks to careful preparation and an eye for detail.»
Active cooling for compact high-power LEDs Modern lighting systems for commercial use must meet higher expectations of durability and reliability.
