    Just a question guys i have 3 decks one with 3 fans the other two decks have 2 fans on each.
    Can i use 1 realy to run each set of fans on each deck as they will all be on at same time and at one speed for each deck

    I wouldn't recommend running multiple fans from a single Sweep Fan Relay. The combined back EMF from the fans will shorten the life of the relay.

    The Sweep Fan Relays can be configured in a Master/Slave arrangement. This will ensure that you get the same settings on all 2/3 units and all the DLT labelling will work as expected.

    The unit is rated at 240V, 2A AC.

    It would be a seriously big ceiling fan to get to 2A (480W).
