Connecting a 4028 fan | RatOS
4028 server fans are becoming a popular option for part cooling because of their light weight and great pressure and flow rates. In this guide we'll go over how to connect one and use it for part cooling. 4-pin fans usually aren't used in 3d printers, and many boards only provide 2-pin ports, but fear not! There's always a way.
Thanks, I’ll dive into this. But it’s not just the 4028 it’s also the 4010
Are they both pwm? You may need to invert the control signal.
nope 4010 is a regular 2 pin
Ah. Well, my hotend fan is 2pin and it's always at 100%, which I'm fine with. My 4028, for part cooling, is connected via 3 pin PWM and needed to get the ! put in the printer.cfg as linked above.
