What is motor stalling in a fan?

Motor stalling can occur when the operating motor inside an axial fan has more load than designed. This can cause the axial fan to fail or in more extreme circumstances damage the internals. This series of axial fans fully protects against this outcome with its temperature sensor, which incorporates an automatic reset maintaining the original speed after a failure.

What are Axial Fans?

An axial fan is a type of fan commonly used within everyday applications, such as air conditioners, computers and laptops. It causes both air and gas (depending on the application) to flow directly through it in an axial direction. Allowing the air/gas flow to be axial and both entry and exit. The most common versions tend to have fewer impellers than a conventional ducting fan which have similar operations.

Does this fan use ball bearings or sleeve bearings?

This particular series of axial fans uses ball bearings. Although both are suitable for virtually the same applications. Ball bearings generally are the more preferred choice, due to their high reliability and long lasting tendencies. Another benefit is their ability to be mounted in any axial direction, whether that be vertical or horizontal.
