      Hi All,

      I'm finding the fan voltage documentation a little confusing sorry. Can you help answer the following please?

      My input voltage is 24.

      I have 1 x 2x 12v fans in a series so 24v
      and 1x 24v heatsink fan.

      Can I connect these up to the fan sockets without issue or do I need to follow some extra steps?

      Thanks

        not a good idea. if one fans stop it could damage the system.

          A buck converter is the correct solution.
