Brivis Switch Fan Sensor 1185mm

This Brivis Fan Switch Sensor is a direct replacement part designed for Australian evaporative cooling units, helping techs and competent DIYers restore proper fan operation.

A faulty fan sensor can lead to erratic fan speeds or complete shutdown, leaving you without cooling when you need it most.

From experience, these sensors can wear out over time, especially with constant operation during summer, leading to unexpected service calls.

Using It on the Job

1. Isolate power to the Brivis evaporative unit at the main switchboard and apply lockout/tagout procedures.
2. Access the unit's control compartment, typically after removing the outer casing or a service panel.
3. Carefully disconnect the old fan sensor, noting its routing and connection points.
4. Install the new 1185mm Brivis sensor, ensuring all connections are secure and the cable is routed away from moving parts.
5. Reassemble the unit, restore power, and test fan operation across all speeds.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Always isolate power before attempting any electrical work on an evaporative cooler.
• Only for use with compatible Brivis evaporative cooling units.
• Follow manufacturer's installation instructions and Australian Safe Work practices.
• Improper installation can damage the unit or pose an electrical hazard.

Before pulling out the old sensor, snap a photo of the wiring. It saves a lot of head-scratching when you're connecting the new one, especially if access is tight.
