In this article you have to be told about fan regulator such as types of fan regulator, how fan regulator works and its uses. By the way, you must know that what is a fan regulator, but still we are going to tell you about all of them one by one in this article and you must know about the type of fan regulator so that you can find the right fan regulator. be able to select.
What is fan regulator?
A fan regulator is a regulator that is used to control the speed of the fan. If the fan is used without a regulator, then the speed of the fan is always fast. But many times we need less fan air, so with the help of fan regulator, air can be taken more or less by increasing or decreasing the speed of the fan, that is, the speed of the fan can be controlled.

But by reducing the fan speed with the help of fan regulator, neither the motor gets stressed nor the fan will get too hot because if the voltage is given to the fan too little then the fan will run at slow speed and will not get too hot. Extremely hot occurs when we reduce the speed of the fan by applying hand or rod, then the fan will be stressed and will consume more power.
How fan regulator reduce fan speed :
The fan regulator reduces the speed of the fan with the help of voltage. What I mean to say is that the fan regulator gives less voltage to the fan, due to which the speed of the fan also decreases. For example, if the speed of the fan has to be halved, then the voltage to the fan is not given 240 voltage but only 120 voltage, due to which the speed of the fan is halved. You must also keep in mind that the fan catches full speed only after giving 240 voltage to the fan. As the voltage continues to reduce the fan, the speed of the fan will also decrease. This is the biggest reason and secret that the fan speed is low and the reason for this is the fan regulator.
How fan regulator works :
The working method of all types of fan regulator is slightly different and similar but the work of all is the same. Different components are used inside different types of regulator, so we will tell you in detail about the working method of all which is as follows :

| How fan regulator works |
We have explained in the picture the example of electric fan regulator. A resistor is installed inside the electric fan regulator, which works to reduce the voltage. About three resistors are placed in series inside the fan regulator. How the voltage decreases, it starts with the resistor itself. As in the picture, when we had placed the mark at number two, the same mark got connected with the second number resistor. From which it is known that after going in from the outside mark, it first goes to the second resistor, then comes out only after going inside the third resistor and the voltage gets reduced to the fan, due to which the speed of the fan is also decreases.
On the other hand, if we keep the fan regulator mark at number 1, then a total of three resistors come in the middle and all three resistors together will reduce the voltage significantly. For example, if one resistor will reduce the voltage by 50, then all three resistors will reduce the total voltage by 150 and the fan will get beyond about 90 volts. If the mark is placed at number 3, then the resistor does not come in the middle, that is, after going inside the electrical mark, it will come out only with the help of a wire without going inside the resistor, which will not reduce the voltage because the power has not come out of the resistor, that's why . That is, by selecting the regulator at full number or last number, the fan regulator is bypassed and the voltage goes forward without reducing and the fan rotates at full speed. The work of reducing the voltage is done by the resistor inside it, but together the amps keep decreasing but there is no effect or difference in the frequency, you should take special care of this point because we have tested that is why.
Note :
The function of fan regulator is to reduce the voltage and send it forward. But along with the voltage, the amount of current ie amps also decreases. There are different components inside all the three types of fan regulator, due to which the work is different, but all of them work only to reduce the voltage. Such as the use of capacitors, TRIACs and some resistors in place of resistors inside some fan regulators, etc.
Do fans consume more power by reducing the fan regulator speed?
But some people also know that using fan regulator brings more electricity bill but it does not happen. That is, as you keep reducing the speed of the fan with the help of the regulator, in the same way the power consumption of the fan will also decrease. For example, at 1 speed the fan will consume 20 watts of power, at 2 speed 30 watts etc. But some people know that even by reducing the speed of the fan with the help of a fan regulator, the electricity bill does not reduce, that is, there is no difference but it does not happen. That is, as you keep reducing the speed of the fan with the help of the regulator, in the same way the power consumption of the fan will also decrease. For example, at 1 speed the fan will consume 20 watts of power, at 2 speed 30 watts etc.
How fan regulator is connected :
The fan regulator is not connected in parallel but in series. Regardless of the fan regulator, you will connect one of its wires with the fan and connect the other wire to the power wire coming from outside. The rest of the fan wire is connected directly to the power wire. You can understand how to connect the fan regulator with the help of the picture which we have shown above.
How much does a fan regulator cost :
The price of fan regulator starts from Rs. 50 and ends up to Rs. 200. The price of fan regulator of different company is also different. The price of small step regulator available here in the market is Rs.60 and the cost of electric fan regulator is Rs.100. The price of step regulator made by some company is more than 60 rupees because due to its size being a little bigger, it does not fit directly into the board but has to be fitted separately. That's why you take a small step regulator or step less regulator so that it can fit directly with the board.
Types of Fan Regulator :
There are three types of fan regulators. But we will tell you all about it below which is as follows :
- Electric fan regulator
- Step less fan regulator
- Step fan regulator
What is Electric fan regulator :
The technology of electric fan regulator has become very old in today's time. That is, even after reducing the fan speed, the power saving is not as much as it should be. Electric fan regulators are much larger in size and tend to get hotter. The cost of an electric fan ranges from around Rs 50 to Rs 100, but you should not buy an electric fan regulator as the technology is very old and does not save a lot of electricity.
There are three to four or five resistors installed inside the electric fan regulator and this works to reduce the voltage. But resistors are able to reduce the voltage, but they are not successful in reducing the voltage. Because of which you should not buy an electric fan regulator. We have shown above the design inside the electric fan regulator like how the fan regulator works.
Benefits of Electric fan Regulator :
- Compared to electronic regulator, the merits of electric regulator are not seen.
Drawbacks of Electric fan Regulator :
- With the help of electric regulator, even if the fan speed is reduced, the power cannot be saved much.
- Very hot compared to other regulators.
- Technology In today's time, this electric regulator has become very old.
- Electric regulators are quite large in size.
- Electric regulators are not long lasting.
Electronic Fan Regulator :
Electronic fan regulators are the best fan regulators and you should keep them in today's time. There are total two types of electronic fan regulator which are as follows :
What is Step less Regulator :
Stepless Regulators are also called Movable Regulators because the numbers are not seen to increase or decrease the speed of the fan, this stepless regulator means steps are not seen. On increasing or decreasing the speed of the fan, the stepless regulator rotates smoothly i.e. there is no sound like tick-tack. With the help of stepless regulator, after reducing the fan speed, electricity is saved which is a good thing because the electric regulator which we mentioned above does not save electricity as much as it does.
For example, a resistor is placed inside an electric regulator to reduce the voltage, while a capacitor and TRIAC are used inside a stepless regulator to reduce the voltage. If seen closely, the stepless regulator does not reduce the voltage but reduces the waveform of the voltage, that is, it changes. All you need to know is that to reduce the voltage, TRIAC and capacitor are installed inside this regulator and the most important work of these two is done by TRIAC only. Stepless Look at the cycle of the AC voltage going inside the regulator and when there is some change on the voltage of this regulator, that is, after seeing the voltage coming out. See the difference in the distortion you are creating. The distoration rate of stepless regulator is very high, due to which electricity is not saved in some quantity but is able to save more amount of electricity than electric regulator.
Benefits of stepless regulator :
- Compared to electric regulator, step less regulator saves power when the speed is reduced.
- Step less regulators are quite small in size.
- Stepless regulators are not hot but they are less hot.
Drawbacks of stepless regulator :
- If it is compared with step regulator, then these regulators do not save a lot of electricity but the difference is not much.
What is step regulator :
Step regulators are the best regulators because they help in saving maximum amount of power as compared to other regulators if we need to reduce the fan speed. TRIAC, Resistor and Capacitor are also used inside Step Regulator as has been done in Step Less Regulator. Step Regulators Regulators in which numbers are shown, which, after rotating, make a tick-tick-like sound. Step Regulators are able to reduce the speed of the fan by reducing the voltage. If you go closely, the step regulator changes the waveform of the voltage. If you compare it with a step less regulator, the distortion the step regulator produces is much less, which makes the step regulator much less hot than the rest of the regulator.
Apart from this, the biggest feature of the step regulator is that if we rotate the regulator mark to reduce the fan speed, then electricity is saved which is a very good thing. By the way, stepless also save electricity, but the maximum amount of electricity is saved by the step regulator and the electric regulator consumes the least amount of electricity.
Benefits of step regulator :
- By reducing the fan speed, you save a lot of electricity.
- They are the least hot as compared to the rest of the regulator.
Drawbacks of step regulator :
- Compared to all the other fan regulators, there is no shortage in it.
Note :
With the help of regulator, power is saved by running the fan at low speed, that is, the fan reduces the power consumption because the regulator gives less voltage to the fan. But the effect of the electric fan regulator is not seen better, that is, electricity cannot be saved in large quantities. You can use a movable fan regulator or a step regulator to save a large amount of electricity.
