Test Methodology
I use an LW-9266 Fan PQ performance measurement apparatus to evaluate cooling fans. This highly sophisticated scientific instrument was made in Taiwan by Long Win.
Fan Testing Machine Technical Specifications:
- Manufacturer: Long Win Science & Technology Corporation
- Air Flow Rate: 2.4 – 250 CFM
- Accuracy of Air Flow Rage: <3.5% INFS
- Repeatability error: < 2%
- Static pressure: 0-20mmAq (100mmAq with the high static pressure throttle device)
- Overall Dimensions: 0.7 (W) x 2.2 (L) x 1.6 (H) m
- Power Source: 220VAC, 5A, Single Phase, 50/60Hz
- Based on Standards: ISO 5801-2007, AMCA 210-0, ASHRAE 51-2007, IEC 61591-2005, GB/T 1236-200
Besides the Long Win machine, I also use the following equipment.
Testing Equipment:
- Noise Test Environment: Hemi-Anechoic Chamber with 6 dB(A) noise floor
- Conditions: 25 (+-2) degrees Celsius, 40-50% humidity
- Sound Analyzer: Bruel & Kjaer 2270-S G4
- Microphone: Bruel & Kjaer Type 4955-A
- Mic Calibrator: Bruel & Kjaer Type 4231
- Data Logger: Picoscope TC-08

Greetings!
Thank you so much for your reviews, everything is simple, technologically advanced and accurate.
I would like to suggest adding a P/Q Graph for 20, 25 and 30 db to compare fans in the “Normalized Noise Tests” category.
It would probably be more visual, and correct, from the point of view of testing performance close to real.
Have you considered this option?
