Oh right, ya, they make a 1115 
model<http://www.alliedelec.com/bud-industries-ipv-1115/70368863/> which is 
designed for 60mm, good eye!

by the way the fan you've linked is 60mm, for that particular vent you will 
want 80mm.  I've never seen an outdoor enclosure done with 60mm fans. 80 or 
120mm move a lot more air and are much quieter.

The enclosure includes a Site Monitor, I'm hoping to use its secondary DC input 
to monitor the fan's yellow alarm wire lead and trigger an error state in our 
SNMP monitoring if a fan becomes locked.

I'm concerned about the fans running 24x7 potentially bringing in moisture from 
fog/nightly humidity.  With the site monitor could to turn the fans on/off 
based upon ambient temperature or time of day?  If yes, how would I do that, a 
relay?  What kind of relay?  I don't have much experience with relays/Site 
Monitors, thanks.  Or is there some other obvious solution I'm missing?

Another idea is to use a Hyderon RG-11 Rain Sensor / 
Gauge<http://rainsensors.com/how-it-works/> to trigger the fans off for both 
dark (less than 2000 lux) and/or rain.  This seems pretty rad!

Thanks,
