SPVL8-010-EP EC FAN CONTROLLER WITH
MODBUS/DCI OUTPUT
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
e SPVL8-010-EP is a speed controller and monitoring device for Modbus RTU
fans with DCI interface (EBM-Papst protocol). e Modbus RTU/DCI interface (DCI
Gen. 1) is used to configure, control and monitor up to 20 fans. Fans featuring the
EBM-Papst Modbus/DCI interface will be addressed automatically by the SPVL8-EP
controller. is results in much faster commissioning.
