Storage
If the controller is stored for any length of time prior to instal-
lation, store controller in the original packaging inside from the
weather and keep temperature between -22°F to 122°F (-30°C
to 50°C).
Installation
The VFRSC can be mounted in a electrical box with the two
screws provided. This device requires a 24VAC/DC power
supply. VFRSC is UL Listed when mounted in UL Listed en-
closure. Minimum transformer output of 1VA.
Location and Maintenance
Consider the following points while choosing a location for
the Vari-Flow Remote Speed Controller.
• Less than 100 feet of wiring to motor or to VFABK.
• Install the controller indoors.
•
Do not place the controller on the floor.
• Maintain a temperature between 30°F to 110°F (-1°C to
43°C). A temperature beyond this range may cause conden-
sation and sweating of metal parts.
• Maintain a low humidity, dry, and clean atmosphere. Ensure
that the controller is not in the path of blowing dust, rain, or
snow.
Operation
This device outputs a 0-10v signal voltage. The dial does not
indicate voltage, but a range of available voltage from max to
min. Vari-Flow motors operate on a 2-10V signal. Below 2V,
the motor stops but is still powered.
