Default taurus fan install

I have a taurus fan I'm looking to install, but my concern is with the fan controller I have now. It is a Be Cool (can't remember part#) , but it has a 40/60 amp relay, is this a large enough relay for the taurus fan, or will I need a larger one? Also, the relay itself is stamped with the 40/60 on it, does this mean 40 amps continuous and 60 amps surge?

the last time I looked up the tauras fan in my circuit book it was labled as having a 80 amp fuse..but it of course never draws that much max......just on initial start up it'll draw a lot of current....but i HAVE seen alot of people on here pop 30 amp fuses left and right with the tauras fan set up.....what you have may work just gotta try it
