Global Air - EC5 Fan Controller & Balancer

The Global Air EC5 Fan Controller & Balancer is an advanced controller designed to manage EC ventilation systems in hydroponics and indoor growing environments. It allows growers to automatically control fan speeds while balancing intake and extraction airflow, helping maintain stable conditions inside a grow tent or grow room.

With thermostatic fan control and built-in fan balancing, the EC5 ensures your ventilation system maintains the correct temperature while keeping the grow space under slight negative pressure. This prevents odours from escaping the grow room while maintaining consistent airflow that supports plant health throughout vegetative growth and the flowering stage.

Key Benefits

• Thermostatic EC fan speed control for stable grow room temperatures
• Built-in fan balancer for intake and extraction systems
• Helps maintain negative pressure to prevent odour leaks
• Compatible with G.A.S Vector EC fans
• Clear OLED display for easy monitoring and adjustment
• Powered directly from the fan via active control cable
• All-in-one solution – no separate fan balancer required
• Ideal for hydroponics grow tents and grow rooms

How It Solves Grow Problems

Maintaining the correct balance between intake and extraction airflow is essential in indoor growing environments. If extraction is too weak, heat and humidity can build up inside the grow room. If intake airflow is too strong, it can disrupt negative pressure and allow odours to escape.

The EC5 Fan Controller automatically adjusts fan speeds based on temperature while allowing growers to fine-tune the balance between intake and extraction fans. This ensures efficient ventilation, stable environmental conditions and proper odour control.

Consistent airflow supports healthy plant development, improves nutrient uptake and helps maintain optimal temperature and humidity levels during both vegetative growth and the flowering stage.

How to Use

1. Connect the EC5 controller to your EC fans using active male-to-male EC cables.

2. One cable is supplied for the first fan; a second cable is required if controlling two fans.

3. Position the controller in an accessible location near your grow room ventilation system.

4. Use the OLED display and control interface to set the desired temperature and fan speed parameters.

5. Adjust the intake and extraction fan balance to maintain proper negative pressure in the grow tent or grow room.

6. The controller will automatically regulate fan speeds to maintain the chosen environmental settings.
