QNAP SP-FAN-BLOWER-A01 CPU Blower Fan Replacement
Overview
The SP-FAN-BLOWER-A01 is a factory-new CPU blower fan designed as a direct replacement for QNAP TVS-x82 and TVS-x82T series NAS units. When the original fan degrades or fails, thermal management suffers — sustained CPU throttling and potential hardware damage follow. Swapping in the SP-FAN-BLOWER-A01 restores designed airflow at 2600 rpm, keeping the processor within safe operating limits and protecting your storage investment.
Compatibility
This fan is a fit for the following QNAP NAS families:
- TVS-x82 series — including TVS-882, TVS-1282 tower units
- TVS-x82T series — including TVS-882T, TVS-1282T Thunderbolt-equipped variants
It is not a universal QNAP fan — confirm your chassis model before ordering. Other QNAP series use different blower geometries and connector pinouts that are not interchangeable with this part.
Installation Notes
This is a service part intended for field replacement. Power down and unplug the unit before removing the existing fan assembly. The blower connects to the chassis via the dedicated CPU fan header — verify the connector type matches your board revision before installation. No special tools are specified; standard NAS service procedures apply. Handle the fan housing by its frame to avoid damage to the impeller blades during installation.
