The Adda AD1212HB-A7BGL is a high quality 120mm fan which spins with a maximum rotational speed of 2,200rpm. The fan speed is automatically controlled by the internal ambient temperature due to the onboard PWM speed controller. It is rated to produce an air flow of 85cfm at under 40dBa. We will measure noise later.

At the far left we can see the daughtercard which is home to the AC transient filter. One X capacitor, four Y capacitors and a single coil. Soldering is high quality throughout.

All the capacitors used are high quality Nippon-Chemicon design. The double layer PCB optimises cooling efficiency. The cables are fully sleeved into the chassis to prevent any possibility of fraying over long term use.

This is a Seasonic built product with a Nippon Chemi Con capacitor positioned behind the primary heatsink. There are clear plastic isolation panels on the outside to stop contact with the outer chassis. The unit uses DC to DC converters to deliver +3.3V and +5v from the primary 12V area. The system features full OVP (Over Voltage Protection), UVP (Under Current Protection), SCP (Short Circuit Protection), OPP (Over Power Protection), and OCP (Over Current Protection).
