he use of fans in professional units is often circumvented, sometimes even knowingly accepting significant disadvantages. Early failures, especially due to electrolytic capacitors operating at too high a temperature, are not at all uncommon.

It is undisputed that the fan is an unpopular component because there are doubts about its reliability. Moreover, it is a fact that cheap fans can be at most average in quality.
