can this be used in a greenhouse application for controlled cooling fans

You didn't supply much information, but my guess is yes. If whatever controls the cooling fans can supply 24 volts to the Orbit valve to turn it on, then sure. Or, if the fans are switched 120 volts, then you should be able to wire in a plug from that circuit and use a 120 to 24volt transformer.

I use it for my greenhouse which is 14 x 8 ft. It is very adequate for moving the air in there and could handle a larger one easily. Seems to me that it would work well for a room up to 20 ft square. It was very easy to install, just follow the directions. It is very durable and has taken several years of abuse in the hot Idaho summer. I really like the remote contral for it, as it is mounted high on the greenhouse wall. I bought it because it was highly recommended for greenhouse use. The price on amazon is the best as well.

The fan is powerful and should have no problem keeping the area cool, but keep in mind in high humidity it can get clogged after a month or so.

Yes but they are low to medium at most RPM so you don't really need a fan controller and actually if you plan to use one, you ought to get different fans capable of higher RPM so you have the ability to do both higher airflow if needed and low airflow when you don't.

You could but it is not durable and does not last, we covered our greenhouse and its falling apart and didnt take sun very well.

Yes,you can use this to control a fan. This will explain how to wire your configuration. Your fan is the LOAD in the diagram. http://ukrferma.nethouse.ua/static/doc/0000/0000/0151/151383.iabtisqg38.pdf

Yes as long as you have a sealed vapor barrier between the fan and the insulation

yes... I'm using it on a reach in fridge to ferment beer and can control the temp on the beer to a specific degree. remember it only allows 10amps.

The greenhouse is of superb quality and will withstand all seasons in any climate. It is not meant to be taken down and takes considerable time to assemble and secure. I suggest adding an extra vent and fan because it does get very hot inside even with shade cloth.

I haven't used it for that purpose - just for cooling down rooms once it starts to cool down outside. Sorry I can't be of more help.

hi , i am presently using these fans as roof cavity and under floor ventilation, they are solar powered ,but require a solar regulator suitable for operating a load with out a battery. using these fans has stabilized moisture levels under the house and reduced movement , the roof fan has cool the roof cavity . So to answer your question as a ventilation/exstraction fan yes.

If the goal is to install a humidistat controlled fan and it meets the desired CFM rating, it is nice packaging design to adapt to most any requirement. However,mine suffered early life failure after 6 or 8 months so I suspect the fans are not rated for 24x7 operation.

I'm not exactly sure. I had it controlling a fan in a green house that was getting way too warm. However, once I got this wired up and working the green house never got over 100 F. On the low end, I'm not at all sure since I only used it in the summer. It's fairly sturdy in the construction and uses some old school tech. I'd be surprised if it would stop working at a high temperature unless it started to melt the plastic.

I am sorry but I can't tell you if it works for your needs but most are adaptable to fit as long as the voltage and amperage are within the required levels. I purchased 2 of these but not for conventional uses. I built a prototype cooling system for my a/v receiver. Have had no problem with the fans and it drop the operating temp by 30 degrees. As far as computers, not sure. Sorry

Absolutely- it has a wide range of controls- to include the ability to turn equipment off and on daily if needed. It contains a pretty hefty relay- however, I'd be sure to check its capacity before you hook it to a fridge- you may want to preface it with a more stout relay- depending on how much current your fridge draws... My fans are only about 1 amp each- so I was able to use it directly. It is very nice and has been operating well for 6 months now. Good luck...

Being a tent camper and a person who likes to make things work, I would say yes, you could. It would probably have to be hung upside down with a heavy grade string or a small rope around where the battery housing connects to the fan part. I hope this idea helps.

This will work, I used it to do something similar for my greenhouse. The only problem is that the wiring diagram that comes with it is wrong. You will have to either go through a trial and error process or email the company and insist on sending you a diagram that works and is accurate. I had to email them twice to get an accurate diagram and as they do not write english well, it can be trying.
