SSR-850FX3 Fan
Hi
I don't have that specific information. Could you check the manufacturer's documentation or the part number details?
Above all, avoid handling the PSU. Doing so could cause serious harm.
Thanks, yes I was fixing AIWA video cassette players and tape drives about 25 years ago, not TVs. I recall TVs had high voltage capacitors, you're right about that. Regarding the fan, it seems to be a 120mm or 25mm with three pins, and I'm wondering what the best quality fan would be for this setup given the 0.58 A rating. No one really uses a 120mm instead of 140mm with such a low current.
Why in the world would you even be considering replacing the fan inside a unit that new? Makes no sense unless there is a manufacturing flaw with the unit. If you think you know better than the engineers who work in the design houses that spend literally YEARS working out the platform development on anything halfway decent, then maybe you wouldn't be asking this question AND you'd be working for them. Just sayin'.
And if there IS, then RMA the unit. It's literally that simple. It's not a complex question.
This indicates it's a proprietary item. You won't easily find a suitable alternative without accessing what's already there, and most people likely can't obtain that particular fan without going through Seasonic. Possibly not even then. Identifying the manufacturer might help, but I'm skeptical about it.
All right everyone, looks like it's a good idea, except for the designers and engineers who make smarter choices! Often these choices aren't about technology but about profit, especially over the last ten years. I have one reason to stick with a proprietary 0.58A fan despite its higher failure rate—preventing users from swapping it for better options. It reminds me of how Mercedes cars used to be less reliable back then! 😄
But you overlook an important aspect. PSUs aren't built to be fixed or maintained by users. I've owned several Seasonic PSUs for years without any issues.
And as I mentioned earlier, it's not merely a replacement. That's exactly what I meant.
