How the AC1 Fan Speed Controller Works
The G.A.S AC1 is a simple plug-in fan controller that will regulate the output level of your extraction system. It can be operated in two modes: unplug the temperature sensor and it will run continuously at your chosen minimum setting. Plug the sensor in and it will operate thermostatically, running fans at the minimum 'tick-over' setting until heat levels rise past your chosen temperature setting.
This controller is a very cost-effective solution but, like all controllers of this kind, it may generate a humming sound. This is an unavoidable consequence of using 'pulse width modulation' to regulate output.
How to Use the AC1 Fan Speed Controller
This is a 'plug and play' controller. Plug the AC1 into a wall socket and plug your duct fan into the AC1. Position the probe around canopy height in the centre of your grow room away from direct light. With 5 amps to play with (1150 watts), you can run almost any duct fan out there. To put it into perspective, a 12-inch RVK runs at 0.94 amps, consuming 176 watts of power while moving 1360 cubic metres of air per hour!
