Normalized Noise Tests
For these tests, I set the fan to speeds with noise output at the following predefined levels: 20/25/30/35/40/45 dBA. I skip the corresponding tests if the fan under the test cannot reach some noise levels. The speeds shown in the graph below are measured with the fan in a clear space inside my hemi-anechoic chamber without any obstacles. I set these speeds on the Longwin machine, but they slightly change because of the variable conditions that the device applies.
20 dBA Noise Output
- High enough speed
- Mid airflow
- Mid static pressure
- Low power consumption
25 dBA Noise Output
- High enough speed
- Mid airflow
- Mid static pressure
- Low power consumption
30 dBA Noise Output
- High enough speed
- Mid airflow
- Mid static pressure
- Low power consumption
35 dBA Noise Output
- High enough speed
- Mid to low airflow
- Mid to low static pressure
- Mid power consumption

Why would the white version have a higher noise normalizing RPM than the black version with the same aerodynamic profile? That is, the white version is significantly quieter than the black version?
