Product Features
Technical Overview
This cooling fan operates with a speed range of 350-1800 RPM, generating maximum airflow of 79.79 CFM (135.56m³/h) and air pressure of 2.26mmH2O. The fluid dynamic bearing system reduces friction and wear, contributing to the fan's durability and quiet 31.9 dB(A) operation.
Electrical specifications include a 4-pin PWM connector for motherboard-controlled speed adjustment and a rated current of 180 mA. The fan's construction uses liquid crystal polymer materials in a black finish, with a weight of approximately 7.30 oz (207 g).
This section brings together practical product details such as Number of Fans, Fan Bearing Type, Fan Speed (Min), Connectors, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

User Manual
FAQ
What size is the Fractal Design Momentum 14 fan?
The fan has a 140mm diameter (5.51 inches), which is a standard size for case cooling applications. This size provides a good balance between airflow and noise levels for most PC builds.
Does this fan support PWM control?
Yes, the Momentum 14 fan features PWM (Pulse-width Modulation) support through its 4-pin connector. This allows your motherboard to dynamically adjust the fan speed based on temperature, providing optimal cooling with minimal noise.
How quiet is this cooling fan during operation?
The fan operates at 31.9 dB(A) at maximum speed, which is relatively quiet for a 140mm fan moving 79.79 CFM of air. The fluid dynamic bearing contributes to smooth, low-noise operation throughout its speed range.
What type of bearing does this fan use?
It uses a fluid dynamic bearing, which provides smoother rotation and longer lifespan compared to traditional sleeve or ball bearings. This bearing type reduces friction and wear while maintaining stable performance.
What is included in the package?
The package contains the Momentum 14 Cooling Fan, one extension cable for installation flexibility, and four fan screws for mounting. All necessary hardware is included for standard case installation.
What warranty coverage does this fan have?
Fractal Design provides a 2-year limited warranty for the Momentum 14 Cooling Fan. This coverage applies to manufacturing defects and ensures reliable performance for your cooling needs.
