would a 6in. in line fan rated at 1 amp have too high a surge rate for this model variac

Im not an electrician. But with basic figuring...it says it is a three amp, so 1 amp shouldn't be anything. Ypu can look on the fan and see what the surge power is and that should tell you. If it doesn't say, call who sold it to you and they should be able to tell you what the surge is. Hope this helps you in your ventures:)

Managed to get the Firmware download done. It slowed the fan down, but youstill know the fan is working. The fan runs non-stop 24-7! I can't imagine the fan'spower consumption is much? Most likely DCV. due to the router uses a transformer.

This Fan's voltage range is listed on the package as "voltage range 4.5~13vdc". Based on that range, 13 volts DC is the max it can handle. Provided that your inverter's output is at a stable 13.1 Volts DC, then 13.1 volts is overrange by one tenth of a volt. Is that enough to kill it? Probably not, but use at your own risk, or ask the manufacturer directly.

This will work if your fans are low amps. If they are industrial type high amps it will break fast.

Yeah I had that in my fan info too. But the info with this control says not to use it with a solid state fan. Who even knows what these "solid state" things are. You should be fine.

No! Get two of them, or just upgrade to a 6" OR if you have the money and can tolerate the noise. A 4in. Inline fan would be 10x better. These have low but steady and quiet airflow

An average 20" box fan you could buy at WalMart would draw less than .6 amps. I monitor my power usage and could not tell when I started using mine. Without getting out my amp gauge for 120vac devices, I can tell you it is minimal. Hope this helps...Rick

I have no idea but, I did call customer service regarding my wiring situation, and they gave me a configuration which made the device work perfectly. My guess, the Fan only feature would not work.

Not sure where you saw that. Surge watts 10,000 Rated would be less. Somewhere around 8500

Dear Dale, what is the current rating of the fan? the converter can supply 3A maximum. Beware that you cannot exceed the input voltage (40V). 36 VDC is fine if the source doesn't generate spikes above 40V. A 12 gauge wire is massive, much more than you need for the 3A this converter can supply. Again, I have no idea if it is enough for your fan. Regards, Jorge

I'm looking at the Installation Instructions for the unit and see no reference to "peak surge current rating." It does say that it is suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 50,000 rms symmetrical amperes. ??

Well, that load is within spec. I have not run mine this hard, but at this price it seems worth a try. I have had excellent performance thus far at 48V, probably 2-3 A.

Depends on the Amp your existing wiring has. Since the FV-11VH2 has a separate heating device, it might require a higher Amp than what you have and a separate switch for on/off. Talk to your installer or check the requirement stated for the fan.

That 400 fan would work Perfert. That's what I have for about same size room. I hooked up a fan speed controller. That hydro fan is awesome!

OK I finally got to test this today. At initial kick on I got a MINIMUM of 17.9 amp draw and a MAXIMUM of 26.8 amp draw, I tried it TEN times and these are the range I got for kick on amp draw, the only constant this fan gave was the running amp draw which was 9.4-9.8 amp draw once it was spun up and running constantly. Hope this helps, FORTUNATELY I already planned to replace this fan.

You have to look that up through the manufacturer's specs for your machine. Yes you have to either use the existing fan in your unit or purchase a new one. You are far better off just buying a new machine as I purchased this processor through Eagle Eye Electronics and got it D.O.A and then the seller kept my money anyway, even after I returned the faulty processor to him.

Honestly any 6 inch inline fan will move more than enough air. A 4 inch would probably do fine but i like my 6". As far as a brand i dont have a preference i would let the reviews do the talking.
