Hello from the other side of the world everyone !
Id like to purchase another inline fan for a experimental mini grow im setting up, total cubic feet = 13.
I already own a the 150B model of this inline series & they perform pretty well along with the thyristor speed controller i purchased with it.
I am trying to decide between the Ox 100 A & B models, considering this mini grow will be in a bedroom it cant exactly be sounding like a jet so i will definitely be speed controlling with the same controller used on the 150B.
Looking at the current graphs i couldnt guess what type of pressure & cfm's id be getting with the speed controller, maybe if i speed control the OX 100 A with only 1821 RPM it will be pointless perhaps or maybe perfect for the situation ? Considering the B model only does about 20 more PA & 60 m3/h more for about 700+ rpm's & a additional 4 dBa extra.

OX 100 A - 55 Volume/l sec or 198 m3/h
OX 100 B - 70 Volume/l sec or 258 m3/h
Is there any common curve a fan will take when paired with a thryristor controller ? or does this vary dramatically from fan to fan & controller to controller ?
Any input will be appreciated. Thanks !
