Panaflo fans..rpm monitoring or no?

[Ironmanstl]

Just that, I have read they don't monitor rpm, then someone says they do.

whats the scoop?
Is it just a 2 pin tail or does the fan not have the ability to monitor rpm?
specifically looking at the m1a.


thanx

has a 3 pin connector, you pick on most sites which tail to use.

You would need to find an M1B.
M1A will not be rpm sensing.

thx for the info

Doesn't matter connector wise... you could get a 3pin non RPM sensing one. I agree with Xbassman.

Here's a handy .PDF with the interpretation of Panaflo model numbers, if anyone wants: http://www.panasonic.com/indus...ance/pdf/fancommon.pdf

A model number should end in X for a 2-pulse-per-rotation RPM output.

'Bumpage for the fact that this is a great ref for everybody to have ...

Also, it looks like you need a model ending in BX.

Yeah you need the BX model and Frozencpu has them.
