Controlling two non-ghl fans via Profilux

[Reef Dweller]

Hi,

I have two 12 volt PC fans in my hood that remove the heat of my lights from the hood and I want to control them with the Profilux PIII Plus Ex (when I get it).

Is this possible? What do I need to do this?

I want to be able to control the speed of the fans based on:

• the temperature in the hood OR
• the temperature of the tank.

If this isnt possible then I would settle for turning them on or off based on the same temp readings above.

Thanks,

Brenton

switching on/off depending on the actual temperature is never a problem, just switch the AC/DC adaptor through our switchable powerbar

for regulating the fan speed you need a controller, we offer the "PropellerControl" for this purpose, it is placed between power supply and fans and is controlled by a 1-10V-interface

Hi Matthias,

Are there any technical specs on the "PropellerControl" module (inputs voltages, output voltages, etc)?

So basically I can:

• Plug the power pack into the power bar so that I can turn the fans on and off based on the temp in the hood.

OR

• Plug the "PropellerControl" module into the profilux and between the fans power supply and the fans to vary the speed of the fans based on the temp in the hood

Is that right?

Thanks,

Brenton

I did this in my RSM250

What Mattias say.

i use the powerbar with a 12V transformer.. to the fans.
and then it is easy.. using a programmable logic.. connecting to the temperature

only its just on or off

What is the program you used? I am having a difficult time getting my fans to turn on or off depending on temperature. I am obviously doing something.

Its a socket function set to temperature ( chiller )

and it turns the socket on and off if a certain temperature is reached

only thing you need to do is buy a 12V adapter and connect it to the fans ( in the back
