Dimensions
Mechanical Installation
1. Manually close the damper blades and position the actuator to 0º or 90º.
2. Slide the actuator onto the shaft.
3. Tighten the nuts on the “U” bolt to the shaft with an 8mm wrench to a
torque of 60 in-lb [6.7 Nm].
4. Slide the mounting bracket under the actuator. Ensure free movement of
the slot at the base of the actuator. Place the bracket pin at mid-distance of
the slot.
5. Afx the bracket to the ductwork with #8 self-tapping screws.
Wiring
We strongly recommend that all products be wired to a separate grounded transformer and that transformer shall service
only these products. This precaution will prevent interference with, and/or possible damage to incompatible equipment.
2-wire / Digital 2 position 4-wire / Digital 3-point oating
*Optional cable color code. The wire colors above are based on using the 4-wire FT6 cable.
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock. Remove power prior to connecting.
