SPDT = Single pole double throw (connectors look like - - -)
DPDT = Double pole double throw (connectors look like = = =)

On-Off-On means, that there are 3 positions for the switch, with the middle one being completely off. (left is an "On" setting as well as right) Same as On-none-On

Momentary is like, umm, a remote control button. It only works when you push it and hold it down. You DONT want this.

you want a SPDT with NO center off (only 2 positions for the switch, UNLESS, you want to be able to completely shut off the fan (Middle position))
