DD12v (Liang D4) Pump controller

Is there a particular Fan controller that I can use to control a D4 pump? I know the pump needs like an 18v line, which puts all of the fan controllers I've seen that are worth anything out of the ballpark.

Ideally, I would like an all in one unit that I can use to control the fants on my radiator and also control my pump via the system temp (or perhaps water temp?)

Is there any all in one unit that can do this? I may need to control up to 8 120mm fans and 1 - 2 D4 pumps. Currently, I have 5 120mm fans and 1 D4 pump, but would like the extra room for expansion.

Anyone have any leads?
 
Im thinking youll need to custom make one yourself for that many fans and the juice to run 2 pumps.
 
Laing D4 pump works quite nicely on 12 volts from the power supply, and at this voltage it consumes 18 watts. I have used this pot to regulate the pump. This pot has ceramic housing, which can get a bit hot.
 
Will the Aquaero control the pump?

It occurs to me that I could wire the 3 (or 6) 120mm fans on the radiator as one unit - is there any reason that wouldn't work, for purposes of control? There's no need to have independant speeds for each fan on the radiator, as there would be for various places in the case. So realistically, I only need to control 3 or 4 independant fants.

I really want the pump to be automatically controlled in relation to the temperature, as opposed to me doing it myself.

I'm fairly handy with wiring and the soldering iron, however, it would seem I would need some sort of logic to handle adjustment based on temperature, and that goes beyond my meager abilities.
 
it didn't blow up my vantec nexus, but then again, i never ran it for more than an hour or so on it.

Not with the DD pump, it only works with the Aquastream 12v pump. It will increase it to the same level as the 1048.

You might wanna check this one. You can use one of the fan controllers to adjust the speed of the pump as well as a couple fans.
 
Hmm, that Max Orbital looks just like what I need. Are there any drawbacks to it? It says it has output voltage from 7v - 15v, which is right up the pumps alley.

There must be a downside to that thing?

Aquaero LCD 204.75, VFD 254.75... I would think that saving over $100 bucks would be a positive... guess that's just me. :rolleyes: You have the reasoning of a republican.
