We watched the Arctic BioniX F120’s behaviour during tests with our jaws dropped. First of all, because in some situations it really has top efficiency, and at a low price of around ten euros. But that’s how it excels in theoretical applications where nothing stands in it’s way. When it works with a filter, grille or radiator, the magic of the BioniX is gone. Such a significant turnaround is unique and fascinating.
Results: Static pressure, efficiency by orientation
Explanatory note: Depending on the impeller orientation, different static pressures may be achieved. Within these graphs we observe the ratio between the “pull” and “push” positions, this gives us a sort of coefficient. If its value is above 1.00, it means that the fan exerts a higher static pressure when pulling. If the value is below 1.00, the opposite is true. Sometimes, however, this ratio is overall balanced.
