FanMagic®-is a hardware-firmware device that realizes a temperature-based
automatic-fan-speed control. Reducing of the fan speed as the temperature drops
minimizes the system acoustic noise, prolongs fans service life period,
diminishes power consumption.
The controller assures early diagnostics of fan failures and increases reliability
of hardware functioning due to the overall monitoring of cooling system and
signalling in case of failures. The use of controller combined with the system
with redundant cooling facilities allows to design fault-tolerant system with
long-life performance.
