•Torque min. 35 in-lb, for control of air dampers
•Built-in adjustable min-position for 3-position and
proportional control
Application
For proportional control with minimum position setpoint, or
three position control of dampers in HVAC systems. Actuator
sizing should be done in accordance with the damper manu-
facturer’s specifications.
The actuator is mounted directly to a damper shaft from 3/8”
up to 1/2”in diameter by means of its universal clamp, 1/2”
shaft centered at delivery. For shafts up to 3/4”use K6-1
accessory. A crank arm and several mounting brackets are
available for applications where the actuator cannot be direct
coupled to the damper shaft.
The actuator operates in response to 24 VAC on wire 2 or 3,
which allows the LF24-SR-E US to retrofit or replace Honeywell®
M8405A actuators.
Operation
The LF series actuators provide true spring return operation for
reliable fail-safe application and positive close-off on air tight
dampers. The spring return system provides constant torque to
the damper with, and without, power applied to the actuator.
The LF series provides 95°of rotation and is provided with a
graduated position indicator showing 0 to 90°.
The LF24-SR-E US uses a brushless DC motor which is con-
trolled by an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) and
a microprocessor. The microprocessor provides the intelligence
to the ASIC to provide a constant rotation rate and to know the
actuator’s exact position. The ASIC monitors and controls the
brushless DC motor’s rotation and provides a digital rotation
sensing function to prevent damage to the actuator in
a stall condition. The actuator may be stalled anywhere in its
normal rotation without the need of mechanical end switches.
Power consumption is reduced in holding mode.
See wiring diagrams for LF24-SR-E US for more details on 3-
position control.
