The Noctua NF-f12 fan is 120MM, ~53CFM and draws only 0.05 amps at 12v, and has a 6 year warranty.
With that little of an amp draw, I would personally not even bother with a snap switch, just turn it on in hot weather or on initial cool down.
I've had one on my compressor fridge's condenser since october 2012.
I disagree that a high CFM fan is needed for this application.
But if 53CFM is not a high enough number, Noctua sells higher rpm 'industrial' versions of their best fans that are also IP 65 or IP67 rated, and are even more efficient, in terms of air moved for amps consumed.
The 120MM computer fan offerings are vast, with huge performance differences, in terms of CFM, static pressure, noise, and amp draw.
