Electric fan controller?

Post by EVIL95XJ »

stroker is done, waiting on my brown dog motor mounts and decided to do away entirely with the stock fans, i ordered three 9" 1500cfm fans

what is the best way to control these, first time setting electric fans up and need some good advice, id like to have 1 fan to come on at a lower temp and the other two at about 210?


thanks for the help

I Use Derale Adjustable Thermo Switches but they are designed for no more then 2 fans but with your plan of different temps you would need 2 controllers anyways...

The fans I ordered are 8 amps each. U think I could use the stock wiring to run 2 at the stock cut on temp and run a controller for the other fan for the lower temp?

You could allways run a correctly rated relay wired to come on with stock wiring.
Easy enough to do.
Dont know what the stock fan is rated at.
