it depends upon the application; a more advanced model may have a thermo-switch.

Can a fan work on a DC voltage?
Yes, if the fan is designed to work on DC voltage, otherwise no.
Can zener diode be used as fan regulaters?
A: NOT VERY WELL a zener requires to support booths its breakdown current and the fan current essentially the zener is a voltage regulator not a current regulator
What is the working principle of fan regulator?
n electrical regulator by using resistance the output voltage is varied simultaneously the speed is varied... But to reduce the the energy loses in the resistor, electronic regulator is introduced,which uses triac to vary the output voltage by varying the firing angle.Which avoids lose of energy in resistor...
How fan regulator works?
A fan regulator is a crucial component that serves to increase or decrease the speed of your fan according to your needs. To understand how a regulator works, you must know something about resistances. Any electrical conductor allows current to pass through it. The conductor however, offers a certain amount of resistance to the passage of current. The resistance depends upon the material of the conductor. The regulator has spools of wire with different amounts of resistances. When you set the knob at a particular position, you include a certain resistance in series with the fan. A series connection implies the resistance is in line with the fan. This reduces the voltage drop across the fan and its speed to your desired level. The greater the resistance, higher is the voltage drop across it and that lowers the speed of the fan.
Where is the fan regulator on a 88 Ford Tempo 3.0?
The 1988 Ford Tempo fan regulator can be found on the fan hub. The fan regulator is attached to the fan hub with two retaining screws.

How do you control rpm of single phase motor without using variable frequency drive?
By changing the voltage through a potentiometer ( eg fan regulator )
How do you know if your 1973 beetle has a generator or an alternator?
a generator is the same diameter all the way to the fan shroud and usually has a voltage regulator fastened to the fan shroud where a alternator is bigger where the pulley goes than where it goes into the fan shroud
What is difference between resistance regulator and electronic regulator of Fan Also tell you material used in construction of both?
Resistance type Regulator uses Resistance & a selector switch to control the voltage. Actually in resistance type regulator the voltage control is done by voltage drop in resitance (converted into heat energy), which causes energy loss/wastage at lower speeds. Whereas Electronic Regulators uses Triac or SCR based circuit and controls the firing pulse to reduce the output voltage. Here power loss is less at low speed in comparision to resitance type regulator. Only disadvantage in local or cheaper Electonic regulators that at low speed Harmonic occurs which causes humming & heating up of Fan. Now a days Energy saver electronic regulators are also available which do not causes radio interference or haronics.
Where is the fan motor located on your 1987 Mercedes 300TD?
The fan motor on W124 E-Class cars is located underneath the windshield wiper motor. You need to remove the windshield wiper assy., and then you can access the fan box. The top cover is secured w/small latches. If the fan fuse is not blown, and the fan does not work, it may be the blower regulator, which is located underneath the fan assy. The regulator is a small piece permanantly fastened to a giant heat sink. Its a two hour job to replace. Best price for a new regulator and/or fan is www.autohausaz.com.
How regulator control the speed of fan?
Fan regulators are similar to light dimmers. Their function is to control the speed of the fan. The regulator uses resistances for the speed of the fan. It acts as a divider and the speed changes based on the resistance.
Why is my heater fan on my 1997 e class not blowing air?
Most common would be your blower motor voltage regulator, this is the part that varies the voltage to the blower motor telling it to go faster or slower. It is located up under the dash on the passengers side and pretty easy to replace. You might also have to replace the blower motor and cover though, if the regulator has never been replaced before you might have to do this. The old style regulator is not available anymore.
