can this be used as a static automatic vent or must it be powered ? want to use it static in response to a fan

It is not powered so I guess it is operated by heat or cold weather? Good luck!

yes. if you just want it to open or close based on temperature. The spring in it is temperature sensitive and will open or close by itself when temperature is lower.

It does not require power. It closes automatically when it gets cold. I think it works the way a coil thermometer works by taking advantage of the expansion and contraction of metal with a change in temperature.

Yes,you can use this to control a fan. This will explain how to wire your configuration. Your fan is the LOAD in the diagram. http://ukrferma.nethouse.ua/static/doc/0000/0000/0151/151383.iabtisqg38.pdf

You do not want to run it with a generator because it is worthless! It is the most worthless item I have ever purchased. You are bettert 0ff operating a fan. It does not perform well.

This is mainly a Floor Duct Vent as far as I recall. you may need an actual Wall Vent. Good Luck.

No. The current and resistance is non-linear and the fan requires full voltage. The type of control you would need is one that does not provide variable resistance but rather a temperature activated relay for full "on" and full "off" as temperature changes.

This fan puts out a lot of air flow - I use it to vent humidity from my home's basement. For that volume you may want to a "duct booster" fan which has a quarter of the air flow.

It's a horrible idea to use this fan to get air into a room to be honest. This is simply a computer fan, and the dust and dirt it will pull it from outside will ruin itself. Its also just 120mm, perfect in a computer situation but not for a house... Yes, in theory your configuration would work though.

I wouldn't recommend using without running the vent.it's really simple if u are handy

It is an exhaust fan connected to a series of below-surface PVC pipes with holes. The suction and ducting provides a way for radon gas to excape into the atmosphere, as I understand it. I see no reason why it could not be used as a simple exhaust fan, but I am not expert. I can say that there is a considerable constant negative pressure due to the tightness of the ducting system, a negative pressure that would be absent if simply used to ventilate a room.

Yes if it fits in the space properly. I believe this one can be configured to vent to the outside of the home or just back into your kitchen, depending on what the configuration of your current fan is like. Ours doesn't vent to outside of home so we just set it to recirculate.

It can be used for such a purpose but with out an air flow meter is hard to figure out what any change would do to any system. You could always over power a system then use an adjustable inline damper to bring the air flow down to what is needed.

I'm using my fans in a similar situation and they work great. My set up is off grid so these fans are perfect for venting kitchens and bathrooms.

That would work fine. Just make sure you feel which way the fan is blowing and turn it on the appropriate side to blow down.

I wouldn't see why not. This unit basically turns on and off the flow of electricity. I would think you could use this for any fan. I don't believe my fan is a Nutone.

CAUTION:For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors. Read the user and instalation manual >>Nutone 8210 fan<<

No, this is not the fan for your application. You need a centrifugal fan. Just use that phrase in Amazon "search". They're more expensive than this one, but they'll do the job.

This thermostat is basically just a switch. It works on 120 and 240 Volt heaters so the fan load would not be a problem. But this thermostat is "on" (switch closed) when there is a demand for more heat. I assume you want to cool the house by use of the attic fan! So, this thermostat will not work in its current configuration.
