Variable-speed fans (EC fans)
The installation of variable-speed fans may be useful in optimising energy consumption. In this case, the
fans are powered by the mains, while the control signal may come via output Y1 or Y2, set as 0-10 Vdc.
Note:
this function is only available on models with analogue outputs (Y1, Y2)
The maximum and minimum fan speed can be set using advanced parameters F6 and F7.
If using the fan speed controller, F5 represents the temperature below which the fans are activated.
There is a fixed hysteresis of 1°C for deactivation.

F6: is the maximum fan speed, expressed as a % of the output. For 0 to 10 V outputs, it represents the
output voltage at maximum speed as a percentage. The same is true for the minimum speed set for F7.
The fan peak time F8 represents the operating time at maximum speed set using parameter F6 to
overcome the mechanical inertia of the motor.
F10 represents the frequency at which the fan is operated at maximum speed for the peak time (F8). If
the fan operates too long at low speed, ice may form on the blades; to avoid this, at intervals of every F10
minutes, the fan is switched on at maximum speed for the time set for parameter F8.
