I'd up the max voltage if I were you.. What voltage is that sensor rated up to? Most 12V fans run really nicely at 18-24V..

I just mentioned that the schematic will only drive up to 12V, but yea dc fans are fine to overpower, the caps in them are often rated for 50V I've noticed.. If the sensor can handle higher voltage, you could just hook it up to a higher supply.. If its touchy, just add a resistor..
