Problem for Aloha Housewares (93645) Ceiling Fan

I have an existing ceiling fan with a three speed

" "
I have an existing ceiling fan with a three speed controller.

The low speed setting was too high so I have engaged an electrician to install a variable speed controller, Clipsal 32E500F Series.

The new controller is fine except the motor hums slightly.

The electrician said that this is normal in some fans.



The fan is a 900mm Stainless Steel, Aloha Model 207021

240 V 50 Hz x 120W

60 W motor.



Can you please advise if the Fan Speed Controller is suitable for the Fan, or is it not possible to install a variable speed controller with this fan?

Regards,
David

some manufacturer already attached a variable speed controller when you purchased them, meaning the unit requires this control, but in your case when you purchased it, it does not have any, meaning they sell it to the market as ready to use, so why install additional control?

There might be an installation error during the assembly, so all you have to do is just interchange the wire connected to the control from LOW, MEDIUM and HIGH, it is a trial and error thing but it won't affect or damage your unit, maybe your high speed connection was connected to a low speed control, so just inter-change it. Remove the variable speed control

- Thus your fan has it own controller? (built in)

If yes , all you have to do is inter change the connection, you do not need any variable speed controller to installed since you already have a built in controller. Use the controller that you use before.
