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. Підключення живлення

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.

Керування вентилятором

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.

• Контроль швидкості вентилятора: The fan speed can be controlled via PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) through your motherboard's fan headers.
• Рівні шуму: The fan is designed with anti-vibration pads to minimize noise. Noise levels vary depending on the fan blade type and rotational speed.

Технічне обслуговування

Регулярне технічне обслуговування забезпечує довговічність та оптимальну роботу вашого вентилятора.

• Прибирання: 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.
• Змащення: If the fan bearing becomes noisy or stiff, apply a small amount of the provided lubricant to the bearing.

Усунення несправностей

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

• Вентилятор не обертається:
  • 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.
• Надмірний шум:
  • Confirm the fan blades are securely attached and not loose.
  • Перевірте наявність будь-яких перешкод (кабелів, сміття), що вдаряються об лопаті вентилятора.
  • Apply lubricant to the fan bearing if a grinding or rattling noise persists.
  • Зменште швидкість обертання вентилятора в BIOS/UEFI або програмно.
• Погана продуктивність охолодження:
  • 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.
