2. Swapping Fan Blades

The SWAFAN GT14 allows for easy swapping of fan blades to optimize for static pressure, airflow, or reverse airflow. The pre-installed blade is the High Static Pressure type.

1. To remove a fan blade, gently press the center of the blade from the front until it detaches from the motor housing.
2. Select your desired fan blade (High Air Flow or Reverse High Air Flow).
3. Align the new fan blade with the motor housing and gently press it into place until it clicks securely.
4. If needed, apply a small amount of the provided lubricant to the fan bearing before re-installing a blade.

4. Potència de connexió

Connect the fan's 3-pin power connector to an available fan header on your motherboard. If installing multiple fans, use the provided power splitter cable to daisy-chain them for synchronized operation.

Funcionament del ventilador

Once installed, your Thermaltake SWAFAN GT14 fan will operate based on the settings configured in your motherboard's BIOS or through compatible fan control software. Adjust fan curves to balance cooling performance and noise levels according to your preferences.

• Control de velocitat del ventilador: The fan speed can be controlled via PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) through your motherboard's fan headers.
• Nivells de soroll: The fan is designed with anti-vibration pads to minimize noise. Noise levels vary depending on the fan blade type and rotational speed.

Manteniment

Un manteniment regular garanteix la longevitat i el rendiment òptim del ventilador.

• Neteja: Periodically clean dust from the fan blades and housing using compressed air or a soft cloth. For thorough cleaning, detach the fan blades and rinse them with water, ensuring they are completely dry before re-installation.
• Lubricació: If the fan bearing becomes noisy or stiff, apply a small amount of the provided lubricant to the bearing.

Resolució de problemes

If you encounter issues with your SWAFAN GT14, refer to these common troubleshooting tips:

• El ventilador no gira:
  • Check if the power cable is securely connected to the motherboard fan header.
  • Verify that the fan header is enabled and configured correctly in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings.
  • Ensure the fan blade is properly seated and not obstructed.
• Soroll excessiu:
  • Confirm the fan blades are securely attached and not loose.
  • Check for any obstructions (cables, debris) hitting the fan blades.
  • Apply lubricant to the fan bearing if a grinding or rattling noise persists.
  • Adjust fan speed settings in BIOS/UEFI or software to a lower RPM.
• Rendiment de refrigeració deficient:
  • Ensure the correct fan blade type is installed for your application (e.g., High Static Pressure for radiators, High Air Flow for case ventilation).
  • Verify the fan's airflow direction is optimal for your system's cooling configuration.
  • Clean any dust buildup on the fan or radiator fins.
