Fan speed controller – Carel FCSM122300 – Cut Phase 0-10V 12A/230VAC

The single-phase FCS units are electronic voltage regulators that use phase control to regulate the output voltage delivered to the load in response to an input control signal.

The controllers drive asynchronous motors, such as fans, pumps, mixers, and stirrers. By applying a 0-10 Vdc control signal, the effective voltage delivered to the load varies from 0 to 230 Vac.

The board also features, at the terminal marked +V, a non-stabilised power source (20 Vdc, 40 mA) that can be used to generate a manual control signal via a 10 kOhm potentiometer. The controllers are protected against short circuits by a fuse mounted on the outside of the board for easy access and, where necessary, replacement. Verify that the motors used are suitable for phase-control applications.
