SilverStone launches new Air Frost C120 fans designed for 24/7 operation

SilverStone has listed the Air Frost C120 on its Chinese website, a new 120mm industrial-grade fan designed for 24/7 operation. The fan features a double ball bearing, a 0 RPM mode, and a top speed of 3000 RPM, and customisable clip-on frame covers.

Also known as the SST-AFC120B (via CowCotland), this unit is engineered for harsh conditions and relies on a double-ball-bearing setup. It operates at speeds up to 3000 RPM, generating an airflow of 85.99 CFM and a static pressure of 4.96 mmH2O. Surprisingly, for an industrial fan, SilverStone implemented a 0 RPM mode for silent operation under low loads. When running at full speed, a single fan consumes 5.4W of power and generates a rated noise level of 38.96dB(A).

The PBT fan frame itself bypasses traditional solid molds, opting instead for rigid side bars covered by bundled clip-on shields. These covers feature a rotatable SilverStone logo that can be oriented in two different directions without altering the standard 120x120x25mm dimensions. While pricing hasn't been confirmed, the fan is currently listed on SilverStone's Chinese website ahead of an expected global rollout.

KitGuru says: These are industrial fans, primarily aimed at servers, workstations and datacentre systems, rather than DIY PC builds.
