Product information "Argon Mini Fan, fan addon for Raspberry Pi"

This mini fan is an affordable and compact cooling option from Argon40 for the Raspberry Pi 4.

With direct contact to the CPU via the integrated heatsink, the Raspberry Pi benefits from both active and passive cooling - with the option to control the fan via software and the onboard switch.
The hardware switch on the front of the fan offers three settings - ON, OFF and PWM. This allows the fan to be optimised for different scenarios, such as quiet operation, ultimate cooling performance or balanced temperature-based cooling.

By editing the software settings, it is possible to determine when the fan starts based on the temperature of the CPU (in PWM mode). The fan also only occupies the first 12 of the 40 GPIO pins, allowing for greater project flexibility than some other fan options.

Features

Compatible with Raspberry Pi 4B
Occupies only 12 of the 40 GPIO pins
Fully switchable
Can be switched on at any assigned temperature when set to PWM control
Integrated heat sink for additional cooling

Safety instructions

Before installing the heat sink or fan, ensure that the Raspberry Pi is disconnected from the power supply.
Make sure that all components are clean and dry to avoid short circuits.
Metal parts of the heat sink must not touch any circuits or electronic components to avoid the risk of short circuits.
Make sure that the fan is mounted in the correct orientation to ensure optimum ventilation.
Avoid contact with water, moisture or flammable substances.
Only use the cables and accessories supplied to ensure operational safety.
Do not overtighten the fastening material to prevent damage to the electronics.
Attach the heat sink carefully so as not to damage the electronic surface or components.
Dispose of electronic waste in accordance with local regulations.
Do not continue to use defective fans or heat sinks and ensure that they are disposed of properly.

Habe den Lüfter zusammen mit dem Argon Poly+-Gehäuse bestellt. Habe mir aber davon mehr versprochen.

Der Zusammenbau war einfach. Danach habe ich in der Datei config.txt wie in dem Anleitungszettel die Lüftereinschalttemperatur auf 55 Grad gesetzt. Reboot und danach erst eine Weile den Pi4 im Leerlauf laufen lassen. Dann habe ich ein Schachprogramm mit der Schach-Engine Stockfish mit 4 Threats gestartet, d.h. der Pi 4 lief mit 100% auf allen vier Kernen. Bei 55 Grad schaltete der Lüfter ein und nach ca. 30 Minuten erreichte die CPU eine max. Temperatur von 73,5 Grad. Danach beendete ich das Schachprogramm und schloss alle Programme. Dann nach ca. 25 Minuten schaltete sich der Lüfter bei einer CPU-Temperatur von 47 Grad dann endlich wieder ab. Fazit: Verbesserungswürdiges Produkt. Raue Oberfläche der Kühlerauflagefläche. Zu viel Plastik im Mittelteil des Gehäuses (Wärmestau), insgesamt für mich eine nicht zufriedenstellende Kühlleistung.

Der Ventilator kühlt vernünfigt, wenn er einmal läuft. Hinsichtlich des Schwellwertes gibt es allerdings Diskrepanzen: Der Hersteller schägt 55°C vor, während raspiOS einen Wert niedriger als 60°C in raspi-config nicht akzeptiert. Allerdings beträgt beim Schwellwert die Abweichung ca. 20 %, d.h. ich habe beobachtet, dass der Ventilator bei 65°C noch nicht und bei 45°C noch immer läuft ...
