Meanwell LRS-350 Fan Replacement Cover for Noise Reduction
Tired of the loud fan in the Meanwell LRS-350 power supply? This custom-designed top cover enables you to replace the original fan with a quieter slim Noctua fan for improved noise reduction and better airflow.
Features:
- Designed for Slim Noctua Fans: Compatible with 12V slim fans like the Noctua NF-A12x15 to keep your LRS-350 cool without the noise.
- Easy Installation: Simply remove the original fan by disconnecting the white plastic connector from the board, exposing two pins for power. The Noctua 4-pin connector can then be mounted directly onto these pins (refer to a PC fan pinout for GND and 12V positions—typically black and yellow wires).
- Secure Fit: The plastic tabs on this cover have slightly undersized holes to allow the self-tapping screws to grip securely, ensuring the fan stays in place.
Installation Instructions:
- Remove the Lid: Unscrew the four screws securing the top lid of the LRS-350 power supply. The existing fan is attached to this lid.
- Detach the Original Fan: Unplug the original loud fan from the board by pulling up on the white plastic connector to expose two pins for power.
- Attach the Noctua Fan to the New Cover: Use the four self-tapping screws included with the Noctua fan to mount it onto the printed cover, aligning the fan with the vent cutout.
- Connect the Fan: Attach the Noctua fan’s 4-pin connector to the two power pins on the board (black to GND, yellow to 12V). Refer to a PC fan pinout to confirm the orientation.
- Secure the New Cover: Place the replacement cover with the Noctua fan attached over the LRS-350 and fasten it with self-tapping screws. The undersized holes in the tabs ensure a snug fit.
