  • Product description

    Transformer fan motor speed controller with airflow-dependent gas valve interlock | TK | 12A | 230VAC | surface-mounted | IP54 | Sentera Controls | SFPR1130L22

    SFPR1130L22 – Sentera Controls transformer fan speed controller with flow monitoring for single-phase 230 VAC voltage-controllable motors up to 12 A. The speed is set with a 5-step selector switch, and the contact of a flow sensor or pressure switch controls the relay output for a gas valve or actuator. It has TK terminals for motor thermal protection.

    Key idea:
    The controller not only changes the fan speed but also confirms that there actually is flow: the relay output (e.g. for a gas valve) is switched on only when the flow or pressure sensor contact closes within 60 s of start-up. This is a simple “no flow – no enable” interlock.
    What it is for SFPR1130L22:
    This model is intended for high-power fans (up to 12 A) – industrial fans in production halls, warehouses, farm buildings or a larger group of fans.

    Operating principle

    The controller is wall-mounted in the room. Connected are the 230 VAC supply (L, N, PE), the motor (U, N), the motor thermal contacts (TK), the flow sensor or pressure switch contact (FL), the remote switch-on or thermostat contact (NC input) and the relay output COM / NO / NC.

    The heart of the controller is an autotransformer with several taps (steps). Each step supplies the motor with a different fixed voltage, while the output voltage remains SINUSOIDAL, as in the mains. As a result, the motor runs quietly even at low speed – the transformer speed controller is also suitable for motors that hum or heat up with an electronic (semiconductor) controller.

    The manual 5-position selector switch selects the output voltage 110 – 140 – 170 – 190 – 230 VAC; in position 0 the controller is off (the 80 VAC tap is present but not connected at the factory – other voltages can be selected by changing the internal wiring). The unregulated output L1 (230 VAC / 2 A) is active in all operating positions.

    After the fan is started, the controller waits for flow confirmation: if the FL contact closes within 60 s, the relay (230 VAC / 2 A) is switched on to control a gas valve or actuator. The TK terminals protect the motor against overheating. Control is in steps, not stepless: the speed changes in jumps between fixed voltages. Engineer's note: the speed at each step depends on the motor and fan characteristics, so after commissioning it is worth checking that the motor reliably starts at the lowest step used.

    Benefits SFPR1130L22?
    Fan speed control and airflow confirmation interlock in one IP54 enclosure – no separate controller or time relay needed.

    Original manufacturer documentation – technical data, wiring diagrams and installation instructions.

    Main functions

    • Airflow confirmation – the relay switches on only when the flow or pressure sensor contact closes within 60 s of start-up.
    • Relay output COM / NO / NC – for a gas valve or actuator, 230 VAC / 2 A.
    • 5-step manual control – 110–230 VAC, with OFF position.
    • TK protection – connection of motor thermal contacts.
    • Remote switch-on or thermostat – via the NC input.
    • Unregulated output L1 – 230 VAC / 2 A for a damper or other device.

    Where is it used?

    • Systems in which a gas valve or actuator may only be switched on when fan airflow is present
    • Extract ventilation with flow or pressure monitoring
    • Industrial and technical premises
    • Fans with single-phase AC motors and TK contacts

    On-demand operation

    For the electrician.
    All interlock elements in one enclosure: FL input, COM/NO/NC relay, TK and PE.
    For the heating and ventilation installer.
    Simple “flow → enable” logic without a separate controller.
    For the building owner.
    The valve or actuator does not switch on until the fan generates airflow.

    Application guide: how it is used in practice

    Typical SFPR1130L22 applications:

    Site What is connected Result Installer's note
    Fan with gas valve interlock Pressure switch → FL; gas valve → COM / NO The valve opens only after airflow is confirmed Airflow must be confirmed within 60 s
    Motor with thermal contacts Motor TK → TK The motor is protected against overheating Connect according to the manufacturer's diagram
    Thermostat control Thermostat NC contact → NC input The fan is started / stopped according to temperature Connect a potential-free contact
    Fan with damper Damper actuator → L1, N The damper is powered together with the fan L1 load – up to 2 A

    How to select the controller current

    Rated current of the motor(s) Recommended model
    up to 3.5 A SFPR1-35L22 (3.5 A)
    3.5–5 A SFPR1-50L22 (5 A)
    5–7.5 A SFPR1-75L22 (7.5 A)
    7.5–10 A SFPR1100L22 (10 A)
    10–12 A SFPR1130L22 (12 A) ← this model
    Rule: controller max. current ≥ rated current of the motor (or the sum of several motors) from the motor nameplate. For a transformer controller the motor starting current is already taken into account by the manufacturer, so no additional margin is needed. Connect several fans only with AC motors of the same type that are voltage-controllable.
    When to choose another solution: airflow monitoring not needed – SC2A1 (two speeds, TK) or ST2R1 (with timer) series; temperature-based speed – GTT-1 series; stepless 0-10 VDC or Modbus control – electronic EVS-1 series.

    Pros

    • Flow / pressure confirmation interlock
    • Relay output COM / NO / NC (230 VAC / 2 A)
    • Sinusoidal output voltage – quiet motor operation
    • TK motor protection
    • Remote switch-on / thermostat input
    • Unregulated 230 VAC / 2 A output
    • IP54 enclosure

    Cons / limitations

    • Step, not stepless control
    • Heavy weight (15.70 kg) and large dimensions
    • No 0-10 VDC input and no Modbus
    • Single-phase voltage-controllable AC motors only; not suitable for EC fans
    • Indoor use only, up to +35 °C

    • The total rated current of the connected motors must not exceed 12 A.
    • Replace the fuse only with one of the same type and rated current as specified in the datasheet.
    • The controller is intended for indoor use only (-20…+35 °C).
    • Relay output load – no more than 230 VAC / 2 A.
    • Design and coordinate the gas equipment interlock according to the gas equipment manufacturer's requirements and applicable rules.

    FAQ

    How does the flow monitoring work?
    The contact of a flow sensor or pressure switch is connected to the FL terminals. If it closes within 60 s of start-up, the relay for the gas valve or actuator is switched on.
    What are the speed steps?
    110, 140, 170, 190 and 230 VAC plus an OFF position; other voltages can be selected by changing the internal wiring.
    Is the sensor included?
    No, the flow sensor or pressure switch is selected separately.
    Can it be controlled by a thermostat?
    Yes, the NC contact of a thermostat or remote switch is connected to the remote on input.
