6 FAQs about [Outdoor energy storage power supply fan does not rotate]

Why is my PSU fan not spinning?

When in this mode, the fan won’t make as much noise, and it could be the reason you see the PSU fan not spinning. While in this mode, the fan will slow down the spinning process significantly when the load is low. As soon as the load of the system increases and you’re using some high-demand programs, the power supply fan will pick up the pace.

Should a fan rotate if a PSU is silent or active?

It does say continuous fan operation in silent and active cooling, depending on system load. So I'd think it should rotate. In "O" manual select with fanless operation enabled, it won't kick the fan on until the psu reaches up to 30% +/- 5% of the max rated load. If posting to the seasonic forums don't get you anywhere, I'd call them.

At what load does a PSU fan typically start spinning?

The PSU fan typically starts spinning at 30% load for some power supplies, at 40% load for others, and at 15% load for some, as it varies with the PSU manufacturer and the amount of cooling required for the particular model of the PSU.

Why does my power supply fan stop spinning?

If the power supply fan stopped spinning even when the load is quite high, it could be that the power supply itself isn’t providing enough electricity for the components to function. In this case, it is necessary to make sure that the electricity needs of the power supply fan and the amount of electricity the power supply provides are aligned.

Is a power supply fan safe?

While some power suppliers come without a fan, this is a rare occasion, as these “passive” PSU models aren’t considered the safest option. The role of the PSU fan is to prevent the computer from overheating, and the system from collapsing. So, what should you do if you notice a power supply fan not spinning?

Why is my power supply fan not running?

As soon as the load of the system increases and you’re using some high-demand programs, the power supply fan will pick up the pace. There are also high-quality PSU fans that won’t spin as much even when the load is higher, which often makes people think that there is a bigger problem, such as the power supply fan not running.
