Waveshare Cooling Fan for Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5, 5V PWM

The Waveshare Cooling Fan (29437) is a simple and effective cooling solution engineered specifically for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5. This compact, low-profile fan provides essential thermal management to maintain optimal performance and longevity of your compute module under load.

Powered by a standard 5V supply and connecting via a precise 4-wire PWM header, it offers programmable speed control for a balance of cooling performance and quiet operation. The included thermal tapes facilitate efficient heat transfer from the critical components directly to the fan's heatsink, enhancing overall heat dissipation.

With a rated power of 1W and a maximum speed of 5000 RPM (±10%), this fan delivers reliable airflow in a minimal footprint. Its slim dimensions make it an ideal fit for compact builds and enclosures designed for the Compute Module 5, ensuring your project remains cool without adding significant bulk.
