is there a 12v speed controller that can change speed of this motor? I don't want to connect to computer. Just a speed control knob. Possible? tks

You will need a Stepper motor drive with built in Controller. Stepper Motor drives require a Square wave to operate.

the simple answer is no . it can be done with out a computer , but quite frankly , you would spend more money doing it than buying a good quality DC motor with a gear head reducer . using 5 relays in a frustrated loop , taking the logic from the first and third relay of the loop , and 2 power relays in a bipolar configuration ... you can use capitors in paralelle with the frustrated loop coils , to slow the loops cycle speed ... to speed it up , use 5 varable resistor across all 5 of the the capacitors . what i have discribed will cost a good deal more than a arduino controller , and give you only 5% speed change if you are extremely careful the simple answer is no . it can be done with out a computer , but quite frankly , you would spend more money doing it than buying a good quality DC motor with a gear head reducer . using 5 relays in a frustrated loop , taking the logic from the first and third relay of the loop , and 2 power relays in a bipolar configuration ... you can use capitors in paralelle with the frustrated loop coils , to slow the loops cycle speed ... to speed it up , use 5 varable resistor across all 5 of the the capacitors . what i have discribed will cost a good deal more than a arduino controller , and give... » Read More the simple answer is no . it can be done with out a computer , but quite frankly , you would spend more money doing it than buying a good quality DC motor with a gear head reducer . using 5 relays in a frustrated loop , taking the logic from the first and third relay of the loop , and 2 power relays in a bipolar configuration ... you can use capitors in paralelle with the frustrated loop coils , to slow the loops cycle speed ... to speed it up , use 5 varable resistor across all 5 of the the capacitors . what i have discribed will cost a good deal more than a arduino controller , and give you only 5% speed change if you are extremely careful « Show Less

nnnnnooooo! possible. this is stepper motor (bi-polar) for accurate positioning of x-y tables, robotics.you need a stepper motor driver controller like tb6560 and your pulse square generator like ne555.amazon sell sainsmart cnc tb6560 3 axis 3.5a stepper motor controller.if you have more questions let me know your friend v. perez

possible small motors wired in series. it did not do what I wanted it to do for me I was going to use it for a 12v heater motor for a speed control in a Buick the motor is wired to run on high speed. it is controlled by a sealed heater ac solid state unit that is $900. it looks like a well built unit for the price you cant go wrong

Yes, it can do variable speed. It's a brushed DC motor, so varying the current will vary the speed, & reversing the polarity will reverse the direction of rotation. One can use a traditional analog current controller, or a PWM current controller, which will be more efficient. - bc for AnaV

This motor is designed for industrial sewing machines which have a treddle/pedal to control the speed. It is wired for 120 Volt AC current. Don't try to use this on any other sewing machine unless it's an industrial heavy duty with a table and pedal.

Yes. Get a variable potentiometer, a dial equipped piece of equipment that will vary the voltage so you can slow the motor to whatever speed you want.

I have mine hooked up to a speed control. It works fine. I run it at about 80% speed with no problems.Reduces the noise, too.

No, this motor is not designed to be used with a speed controller. It is very quiet and wouldn't need to be slowed down unless it moves to much air. In that case I'd buy the smaller 6" model.

I got mine upto 12.7 mph on 24v. The motors burned out. I've tried them all and the original PW motors hold up best.

Yes, you can regulate the speed with power knob. I really enjoy this tool. I use it almost everyday in the shop.

I am not familiar with this motor, but it would appear that you slip the plastic connector into the socket on the drier board, supply between 5 and 12v to the two pin and connect the four remaining pins to your controller board. You should be able to use an ohmmeter to figure out the motor connections by measuring the coil resistance on the four pins on the driver board. When you read almost no resistance between two pins, those are one phase of the motor. The remaining two pins are the other side.

NO. That is an induction motor and this won't work with induction motors. This speed controller only works with brushed "universal" type motors. The only way to change the speed of an induction motor is with a Variable Frequency Drive.

My recommendation would be a variable power drill either corded or cordless that you can put a hose clamp on to vary the speed. They have a much greater range of variance without damage to the motor.

We did. We did not use a variable speed controller though. We set the fans to a high speed and then replaced the control with a simple on/off switch.

Hello Sir, If I understand your question correctly, your asking if there is a manual mode speed adjustment in which you can control each of the fans speeds without interference from the automatic mode - If so the answer is YES. This unit provides excellent control functionality allowing the user to manipulate the speed of the fan in any configuration. The only exception to this is the 'Aera+ Mode' which can only be leveraged in automatic mode. I hope this helps answer your question. I myself am very pleased with this purchase given the deal I found - It was a 'deal of the day' that also, (if one paid attention), had a coupon to clip for additional savings. By the time I reached checkout, I owed only $109. After using it for sometime now, I would have easily paid what they are asking for today. Anyways, let me know if need any additional information. Regards, -A.Farrow

zzzzzz.... use your search engine. there are other fan controllers that allow PWM control but you will have to pay for the price

Is the motor reversible? Honestly don't know...and I imagine reversing the wiring hookups wouldn't work, either. If you're trying to suck the outside air in, rather than forcing the inside air out, wouldn't that depend on the fan blade design?

To reverse the motor you need to change the wiring. It is easy. Have not thought of using a switch to do it but I guess it can be done. With regard to the speed of the motor I only use it on one speed. Not sure if you can put an in line box (reastat?) to allow for a variable speed motor. The motor works great. I use it to power a sander in my woodworking shop.
