Fan Replacement : Made Easy

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

After talking with a few people and feedback from others on the forum it came to my attention that swapping the fans on the NBR line up was a royal pain due to soldering or just not knowing exactly to reconnect. I had my eye on these special terminals around 1 - 1.5 years ago but were only around in Germany or UK. They were just released state side last month and I was able to order a TON. This will solve everyones issue with swapping the fan out if by chance it does go out or is fried from a higher voltage. These will be included when I send out a replacement fan for FREE.

Slide everything back in and there you have it! I want to say thanks to the people who brought to my attention that not everyone can do some electrical stuff so easy. These terminals make it just that easy!

 

As always thanks!

P.S - I am swapping most of my home wiring ( lamps, fans , etc ) with these due to the high voltage/amp rating, small size and reusable. Simply amazing!

This is a great idea. Is there more room in the newer models to fit these inside though? I barely had enough room to slide the wires back in as it was.

These will literally slide on the side with the heatsink. It is tight but they fit. :)

 

The new units wont need to worry about with the design.

Yep. These are super duty. Made by Wago. ATI uses a terminal like this but it can not be reused.

 

This reminds me of how the tunze pump connects to the brain! You push the exposed wire in and it clamps it in :)

I got rid of wire nuts a few years ago and started using those. Much easier for all electrical applications. USA is slow on some of this stuff.

Yes sir. Your 4 year old fan is probably in line for a update. ;)

Dave will this work for my retro you did for me?

 

I have a fan that's acting flaky, I have to tap it to get it to start.
