Supermicro FAN-0156L4 Counter-Rotating Fan

Supermicro FAN-0156L4 is a counter-rotating fan module engineered for use in professional IT infrastructures, including servers, storage platforms and other enterprise systems where consistent cooling performance is critical.

The counter-rotating design is intended to provide stable airflow and improved pressure characteristics compared to standard single-rotor fans, which is especially important in densely packed chassis and high-load configurations. This helps maintain component temperatures within safe operating ranges, supporting long-term reliability of CPUs, memory modules, storage devices and power delivery circuits.

• Counter-rotating architecture – optimized for environments with restricted airflow paths, such as rack servers and compact enclosures.
• Designed for continuous operation – suitable for 24/7 workloads in data centers, enterprise server rooms and edge installations.
• System stability – assists in maintaining consistent thermal conditions, reducing the risk of thermal throttling and unplanned downtime caused by overheating.
• 12-month manufacturer warranty – provides assurance of support and replacement in case of manufacturing defects within the warranty period.

By using an original Supermicro fan module matched to the intended platform, administrators can maintain a consistent cooling profile and avoid incompatibility issues that may arise with non-certified components. This is particularly relevant in chassis designed around specific airflow directions and fan control logic.

The FAN-0156L4 is recommended as a replacement or spare part in existing Supermicro-based systems that require a counter-rotating fan of this series. Before deployment, it is advisable to verify compatibility with the exact server or chassis model using the manufacturer's documentation or configuration tools.

Thanks to its design and manufacturer backing, the Supermicro FAN-0156L4 supports predictable thermal management, contributing to stable operation of critical IT services and applications.
