RF Metal White BLDC Fan
Overview
The RF Metal White BLDC Fan is a 1200mm (48") ceiling fan from Beakn's RF BLDC range, finished in a clean metal white. It pairs a high-efficiency brushless DC (BLDC) motor with an included RF remote to deliver powerful, quiet airflow at roughly half the running cost of a conventional induction fan. This model is a fan-only unit — it carries no integrated light — making it a focused, no-frills air-circulation solution suited to a wide range of domestic and commercial spaces.
Features
BLDC Motor
•Brushless DC technology delivers high energy efficiency, quiet operation, and a long service life.
•Runs at just 32–35 W at full speed — approximately half the ~75 W draw of a comparable conventional induction fan, for similar or greater airflow.
•Runs cooler than brushed/induction motors, reducing wear over time.
Wide Voltage Tolerance
•Operates stably across 100–300 V AC.
•Continues to perform smoothly through common voltage fluctuations and unstable supply conditions without damage or speed inconsistency.
RF Remote Control
The included RF remote provides full control without requiring line-of-sight:
•Speed control — step through multiple fan speeds.
•Booster mode — instantly jumps to maximum airflow at the touch of a button.
•Reverse mode — reverses blade rotation direction for improved seasonal air circulation (circulates warm air downward in cooler months).
•Timer — sets automatic switch-off after a chosen interval.
> Note: Control is exclusively via RF remote. This fan is not WiFi-enabled, app-controlled, or voice-assistant compatible.
Build Quality
•Aluminium blades — lightweight, rigid, and corrosion-resistant.
•Double ball bearing motor — smoother and quieter than sleeve-bearing motors; lower maintenance requirements and a significantly extended service life.
Metal White Finish
•Clean, neutral metal white aesthetic.
•Complements modern, minimalist, Scandinavian, and contemporary interiors.
•Fan-only design (no light kit) keeps the profile sleek.
Use Cases
| Setting | Why It Works |
|---|---|
| Living rooms | Large sweep (1200 mm) and >210 CMM move air across open spaces efficiently |
| Bedrooms | Quiet BLDC motor and timer function suit overnight use |
| Home offices / study areas | Low noise and steady airflow support concentration |
| Commercial offices | Energy efficiency reduces operating costs across multiple units |
| Commercial spaces | Wide voltage tolerance handles less-stable commercial supplies |
| Rooms without ceiling lighting | Fan-only format pairs freely with independent lighting choices |
| Areas with voltage fluctuations | 100–300 V AC range ensures reliable, uninterrupted operation |
Compatibility
This Fan IS Compatible With
•Standard ceiling fan wiring points (live + neutral).
•Any room where a 1200 mm (48") fan is appropriate.
•Unstable or wide-range power supplies (100–300 V AC).
•Spaces that do not require an integrated ceiling light.
This Fan Is NOT Compatible With
•WiFi smart home systems (e.g. Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit) — no WiFi/voice control.
•Smart switches that require a neutral-bypass — standard neutral wiring is used.
•Rooms needing an integrated light fitting from the fan — choose the Premium variants instead.
Within the Beakn RF BLDC Range
All six fans in the RF BLDC range share the same motor platform, 1200 mm sweep, 32–35 W consumption, and RF remote feature set. The RF Metal White is differentiated by:
| Differentiator | RF Metal White | RF Premium models |
|---|---|---|
| Finish | Metal White | Russet Brown / Grey |
| Integrated light | ❌ None | ✅ 9 W LED |
| Series | Metal | Premium |
Selling Points
1.~50% energy saving — 32–35 W versus ~75 W for a conventional fan at comparable airflow; measurably lower electricity bills.
2.Quiet, smooth operation — BLDC motor with double ball bearings runs quieter and cooler than induction alternatives.
3.Voltage-resilient — 100–300 V AC range means reliable performance even where supply is unstable.
4.Smart remote features — Booster, Reverse, Timer, and speed control deliver practical daily convenience without requiring a smart home setup.
5.Simple installation — fits the existing ceiling point; any electrician can install it in a single visit.
6.Clean, versatile aesthetic — metal white finish pairs with a broad range of interior styles.
7.Low maintenance — double ball bearings and brushless motor design extend service life and reduce upkeep.
8.No ongoing subscription or connectivity required — RF remote is self-contained; no app, router, or cloud dependency.

Installation & Wiring
What Is Required
•A standard existing ceiling fan point with live and neutral wiring.
•A regular licensed electrician — no specialist low-voltage or smart-home installer is needed.
Process
1.Electrician removes the existing ceiling fan (if present) or prepares the ceiling outlet.
2.RF Metal White BLDC Fan is mounted to the ceiling bracket at the existing ceiling point.
3.Live and neutral wires are connected — same as any standard ceiling fan replacement.
4.Electrician pairs the included RF remote to the fan's receiver (standard commissioning step).
5.No additional wiring, hub, or network setup is required.
Key Installation Notes
•No neutral-not-required workaround needed — uses standard live + neutral, same as a conventional fan.
•No WiFi network, router, or app configuration — the RF remote is self-contained.
•No light wiring required — this model has no integrated light.
•Suitable for standard ceiling heights and mounting configurations compatible with a 1200 mm fan.
FAQ
How much does it cost to run?
At full speed it draws 32–35 W — roughly half the ~75 W of a comparable conventional induction fan. For equivalent airflow, running costs are approximately halved.
Is this fan WiFi or app controlled?
No. Control is via the included RF remote only. There is no WiFi, Bluetooth, app, or voice-assistant integration.
Does it work during voltage fluctuations?
Yes. The fan operates stably across 100–300 V AC, making it well-suited to locations where supply voltage is inconsistent.
Does this model have a built-in light?
No. The RF Metal White BLDC Fan is a fan-only model. If an integrated light is required, see the RF Premium Russet Brown or RF Premium Grey models, which include a 9 W LED.
Can I control the light separately from the fan?
Not applicable — this model has no light.
What rooms does it suit?
The 1200 mm (48") sweep and >210 CMM air delivery are appropriate for standard to large rooms: living rooms, bedrooms, offices, study areas, and commercial spaces.
How noisy is it?
The BLDC motor and double ball bearing construction are specifically designed for quiet operation — quieter than conventional induction fans.
Does it need a special electrician to install?
No. Any regular licensed electrician can install it at the existing ceiling fan point.
Can the blades rotate in reverse?
Yes. The RF remote includes a Reverse mode that changes blade direction, helping to redistribute warm air in cooler months.
What is the Booster function?
Booster is an RF remote mode that instantly ramps the fan to maximum airflow with a single button press — useful for quickly cooling a space.
How long will it last?
The double ball bearing motor and brushless DC design are engineered for long service life with minimal maintenance compared to conventional induction fans.
