Many resellers prefer POS machines with a fanless design. The fanless POS machine does not use the fan to keep cooling and transfers the heat of the internal heat component to the aluminum alloy heat sink of the processor and keep the POS machine cool.
Sunany R&D team has put a lot of efforts in this area, and now some POS machines from Sunany have adopted fanless design, So, what are the advantages of fanless design POS machine?
1. Silent Operation
Almost all the noise a POS machine makes comes from its fans. The first advantage of the fanless POS machine is that the passive cooling POS machine is silent because no fan makes noise when pushing the air through the system. Some using environment requires silent operation such as the library, cafes and SPA. And fanless POS machines are perfect for it.
2. No External Debris
When the POS machine fan blows inward, it carries not only cool air but also debris such as dust and dirt. This debris can build up over time and interfere with the electronic components inside the POS machine, then cause them to fail. By using fanless POS machines, there is no harm from the inflow of debris.
3. Durability and long-cycle life
Sometimes, the fan is also a fault point in the POS machine. Fanless design can also make the POS machine less failure. Moreover, the motherboard does not need to be powered on by the cooler. The entire motherboard work will be more stable, thereby extending the service life.
Of course, the fanless design also has some limitations, such as some i5 and i7 processors with high performance and high power consumption, this design cannot be used. Some processors with lower performance and power consumption are more suitable for fanless design, such as J1900, J4125 and J6412 of the intel Celeron series
