Benefits

• Customized Comfort: Go beyond a simple on/off switch. Precisely dial in the perfect amount of airflow for any season or time of day, enhancing the comfort of your living space.
• Ultimate Customization: The modular design allows you to create your ideal control panel. Combine this fan controller with a light switch in a 2-lever yoke for a clean, all-in-one solution for a bedroom fan with a light.
• Energy Efficiency: Running a fan at a lower speed uses significantly less energy. This module allows you to use only as much power as you need for your desired comfort level.
• Cost-Effective Upgrades: Easily upgrade an existing on/off fan switch to a variable speed controller by simply swapping out the module, without replacing the entire switch plate and frame.
• Simplified Inventory: A key advantage for electricians. Stocking versatile modules is more efficient than carrying numerous pre-configured, dedicated fan control units.
• Flawless Aesthetic Integration: The module is designed to perfectly match the look, feel, and ultra-slim profile of Trinity light switches, ensuring a cohesive and high-end finish.

In-Depth Technical Specifications

This module is the essential building block for creating integrated and comfortable environmental controls. Below are its detailed technical specifications.

Product Specifications

Required Components for a Complete Unit

This is a module component and requires additional parts for a complete, functional installation:

1. Trinity Yoke: A mounting frame (e.g., TS2011Y, TS2021Y) that fits into the wall box. This module takes up the space of one standard lever.
2. Trinity Cover Plate: The final decorative cover that clips onto the yoke. The cover plate must match the size of the yoke and its lever configuration.

Ideal Use

The Trinity 400W Rotary Fan Module is the perfect upgrade for any room with a ceiling fan.

• Bedrooms: Allows for a silent, gentle breeze for comfortable sleep without the full blast of a high-speed fan.
• Living Rooms & Lounges: Adjust airflow to suit the number of occupants or the time of day for optimal comfort.
• Covered Patios & Verandas: Provides the ability to create a pleasant breeze for outdoor entertaining.
• Home Offices: Creates a quiet and comfortable working environment without the noise and disruption of a desk fan.
• Restaurants & Cafes: Offers adjustable airflow to ensure the comfort of patrons.
• Renovation Projects: An excellent and simple upgrade to add modern functionality and value to any property.

Tips

• This is a Module Only: It is critical to understand that this product is a component. You MUST purchase a compatible Trinity Yoke and a Trinity Cover Plate to create a functional fan controller.
• Fan Compatibility: This controller is designed for standard AC (Alternating Current) ceiling fans. It is NOT a light dimmer and must not be used to control lights. It is also generally not compatible with DC fans or fans that come with their own proprietary remote control or electronic control system.
• Wiring: The module is wired in series with the fan motor, similar to a standard light switch. It requires a live feed and a switched live connection to the fan. Installation by a qualified electrician is recommended.
• Low-Speed Hum: It is normal for some AC fan motors to produce a slight humming sound when operated at very low speeds via a controller. This is a characteristic of the motor, not a fault of the module.
• Installation Sequence: For the easiest assembly, wire the conductors to the module first. Then, align the module with the desired aperture in the yoke and press firmly until it clicks securely into place.
