is it compatible with a fan speed controller

If the controller regulates the power output to control fan speed, then yes. There is no transformer on this fan, the power level supplied determines airflow.

I have one that I use a speed controller with. In reality for my purpose I really don't need a controller it does not move as much air as I thought. It is very quite though. Very faint hum.

I am not sure. The other size models listed by the same seller say that they are . I can only assume so

I asked LEDwholesalers the same question RocPopy, This is there response. "Hello: Sorry, our fans are unlikely to work with fan speed controllers. Regards, LEDwholesalers" That should clear things up for everyone.

It worked for my Crown Royal furnace with a speed controller. (Though it may take a certain type of controller.)

The short answer is no. You may be able to get it to work but I'd advise against it. Here's the long answer: I bought two of these fans during construction of our new house and had hoped to run them both off one controller. The electrician who wired the house connected both fans to a "universal" fan controller, the kind that fits inside the wall box like a light switch. One fan would work pretty well but the other fan would only jerk as though it were trying to start but couldn't. The electrician then tried a similar controller that was supposed to control multiple fans. They both worked better but made noise. About this time I dug up the instructions for both the fans and the controllers. The fan instructions specifically say "To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid state fan speed control device, or variable speed control". The controller's instructions said "CAUTION: To avoid overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not use to control receptacles, fluorescent lighting fixtures, or transformer-supplied appliances". We then tried running both fans with one of the supplied transformer type speed controls and that didn't really work either. We finally decided that we don't really mind the "vintage" appearance of the supplied controllers. In fact my wife actually likes the way they look. Because they stand out from the wall we mounted them above the switches controlling those circuits (on/off) so they're just above shoulder height and we're less likely to bump into them as we walk down the hall. The fans are great. We still love them and would buy them again. We'd just skip the headache of trying to avoid using the supplied controllers.

It has a switch on the side that will allow you to choose between 3 different fan speeds. Not sure about the external speed controller though.

The fan controller is powered by the PSU and then powers the fans with individual controls for each fan. This bypasses the MoBo fan control and RPM sensors, therefore not recommended to control CPU fans but works very well for case and auxiliary fans such as Memory module, Hard drive and secondary CPU cooling systems and front, side and rear case fans.

No , this one can only have 2 fans same speed. If you want separate speeds you need Pwm splitter

No. It is not compatible. The plugs are different and the fan blade shape is different.

Yes, you will be able to, however, the fans will always run at MAX speed. I was previously using it directly to the PSU, now its is connected to a fan controller.

When I installed this fan I was looking for maximum air flow since it is in a large vinyl shed. It is a one speed on or off unit. The original instructions, as I recall, did not lead me to believe that it would operate with a speed controller, but to be certain would check with the manufacturer. Though this is not a complete answer to your question, hope it helps some what

No, the fan controls do not control LED lighting of fans, nor of the actual unit's LED interface. It controls fan speed/RPM only.

I'm sure it will. I have a basement window fan on a speed controller and it works well. The six inch fan I use to exhaust lead fumes from my lead pot so I need all the exhaust I can get.

it will work as a off and on power control, but not as a variable step controler such as needed for a multi speed device with an amendum such as a varible intensity light. if it is a single speed fan, with a single intensity llight that is controlled by a " pull chain " switch wired into the fans power connection, you are probably " O.K."

I can't answer that question, but it really is only a sending unit that is installed between the fan's power source and the your power feed. I would say it would work as long as you have room to install the sending unit in your fan assembly. See the black box in the photo. The instructions say to set the fan speed on high and don't manually change the speed setting. To me the unit acts like a light dimmer.

This would only work with a fan controlled by a Minka-Aire controller. Its is highly unlikely this is the unit you want.
