The unit is factory set to operate at 30ºand will reset as the temperature falls back by 4º.
Custom settings can be made using the front panel buttons.
Using the alloy adhesive clip the sensor should be mounted onto an area where the sensor can
pick up the ambient temperature of the equipment being cooled, and NOT directly to the main
heat source.

A UNIVERSAL-PSU 12V DC 1A supply that can
power up to 2 fan units is supplied.
The Link socket shown below can be used to pass

DIGITAL THERMOSTATIC CONTROLLER MODULE
These Digital Thermostatic Controller Modules are fitted in 3 products within the Penn- Elcom
COOLRAC range and are used to monitor and manage all of our low noise DC fan units.
PLEASE NOTE: The temperature probe must be plugged in for this unit to operate, an alarm will sound
if it is not connected.
It is vital that the sensor probe is fitted in the right area to get the best result from your controller
DO NOT fit it too near the main heat source as it will always be ON.
Somewhere close to the top of the rack is probably the best place to pick up the ambient temperature
of the enclosure. Although to get the best result, some experimentation may be needed.
Once in the right place the average temperature of the enclosure will then be constantly displayed.
Setting the fan ON temperature
The units are factory set to 30º to change this:-
Press the SET button once to show the ON temperature
Adjust temperature using up and down buttons.
Deduct 2º from the desired activation temperature
