Hi Malte,
Thanks. Yes, I saw the datasheet. Unfortunately it's an obsolete fan and
Nidec doesn't seem to have a replacement in their newer lines. However the
4 wire version model E34386 with speed sensing has similar characteristics
and there are several on eBay. Looking at the fan curves however, The
E34386 doesn't do as well at the same pressure drop as the M33402. Sun
Lunch boxes are already pretty strapped for adequate cooling so I'd rather
get something a little stronger while not exceeding the M33402's 140mA
rating too much. I did happen to find a vendor who sells the M33402 but the
description was a bit ambiguous and I'm still waiting on confirmation that
it's the same fan.

Hi Kurt,
did you see the reply you got on the rescue at sunhelp.com mailing list?
The fan is a 12v 60x25mm 14cfm according to the Nidec TA225DC datasheet.
Cheers,
Malte

Hi All,
Does anyone by chance have a collection of fans? The one in my Sun Sparc
Classic died and I am having a hard time finding a replacement with the
same specs. Or can anyone recommend a good source?
It's a Nidec BetaV, TA225DC, Model M33402-55
Thanks!
