Hi all,

I have just received my Moravian C3-61000 Pro camera. At this moment I have not used it fully yet, I am doing just simple testing like get connected and making some cooling. The first impression was that the fan started running as soon as the camera was powered up and it is noisy. Is there a way, you can switch the fan when the camera is not cooling? It is inconvenience at least, but if it is normal operation of the camera, it is fine.
Thank you for your help,
Grigory Vidishev

I have both C3-61000 Pro and the C3-26000EC Pro. Yes, the fans do make noise, doesn't bother me, my FLI camera fans also make noise. As far as I know the fans run all the time regardless if the cooler is on or not. Moravian doesn't state anywhere that you can turn them off, other than the noise, it affects nothing.

Thank you Bob! I was not sure if this is anomaly and I need to do something. I can tolerate the noise, not a problem.

Was wondering the same thing. I was more worried about fans wearing out prematurely from running 24-7.  Luckily I order 4 back-ups when I ordered the camera!
