can you use "speed control" on this model?

yes, mine is used in a pellet stove. If you need a replacement motor buy the Fasco D132 (115v).

Not that I know of...not unless it's connected to a varaiable frequency drive or something of that nature? Maybe a rheostat?

It says single speed, but my coal stoker ramps my blowers up and down according to temperature needed.

Yes, I am using this fan on my coal stove and it is controlled by a thermostatwhich regulates the speed depending on how much heat is needed.Hope this helps.

You just move the speed control to desired speed for it to work, no holding down

I am sure this speed control will change your speed. There has to be a change in power in order to reduce the speed.

The little roller button on the side controls the speed on the on I have. Just slowly roll it up and down.

It depends on the speed controller, and the one I bought does not have regen. Not sure how much of an improvement it would be to have it. Would definitely make the system more complicated.

I don't believe its designed to put a "speed controller" on it. Its designed to run a that RPM. For a slower speed, I would just put a larger pulley/sprocket on it (the larger the slower). The motor IS reversable. A marine, electric, BOAT LIFT controller, wired correctly into the unit would work fine to reverse it if needed....

Hi James H.You can press the SPEED button on the unit to select speed. Thanks. >Joffrey

No it doesn't have a grip to control the speed! It has a foot pedal! It also has a Hi gear to go fast, a Low gear to go slow, and a reverse gear too

Yes, speed setting limits max speed. Don't know if it affects torque output as well. May be useful if you have a heavy trigger finger, control is good at any setting.

Hi, No you dont need a lot of setting, it is very simple, you just push on button, each time you to that will change the speed, thats all if you need more information please let us know. Regards ADW69

Yes you can and I have, it does however effect top end speed slowed me down only by a few mph I am very happy with it had it two seasons stiching is still good no fading great for the price. I hope this helps

Yes you can but you have to adjust the speed of drop. Be ready to brake some fobs. Lol but it's is great love it.

Yes, you can control the speed. Actually it is really fast. Not the greatest if you have to go up a hill. But my son love it and can't wait for the snow to go away here so he can use it more. Hope that helps! Best to you!

A two speed control works, but a variable speed control does not. I tried a variable control with no luck.

Greetings:I will give you a qualified yes on the variable speeds. THe motor is a standard brushed DC motor, so load and drive voltage affect speed. You can vary the speed by either varying the drive voltage, or, as in current automobiles, with a pulse-width modulated source.Hope this helps!Terry S.

Yes you can, with dimmer if you want. Otherwise, a direct control from the wall would give you one speed velocity.

The speed is controlled with a little dial (with speeds 1-10), which is on the side of the motor. I'm not sure about compatibility with a foot pedal. I just know nothing about that.
