Installation Instructions

NOTE: Read the entire instruction manual before starting the

installation.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Installation and servicing of this equipment can be hazardous

due to mechanical and electrical components. Only trained

and qualified personnel should install, repair, or service this

equipment.

Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func-

tions such as cleaning and replacing air filters. All other opera-

tions must be performed by trained service personnel. When

working on this equipment, observe precautions in the litera-

ture, on tags, and on labels attached to or shipped with the

unit and other safety precautions that may apply.

Follow all safety codes. Installation must be in compliance

with local and national building codes. Wear safety glasses,

protective clothing, and work gloves. Have fire extinguisher

available. Read these instructions thoroughly and follow all

warnings or cautions included in literature and attached to the

unit.

Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol z_.

When you see this symbol on the unit and in instructions or

manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury. Under-

stand these signal words; DANGER, WARNING, and CAU-

TION. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol.

DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which will result

in severe personal injury or death. WARNING signifies haz-

ards which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION

is used to identify unsafe practices which may result in minor

personal injury or product and property damage. NOTE is

used to highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced

installation, reliability, or operation.

Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.

Have a fire extinguisher available.

Before proceeding with installation, inspect thoroughly for

shipping damage. Notify shipper immediately if any damage

is found. Check for proper clearances of moving parts.

The qualified installer or agency must use factory- authorized

kits or accessories when modifying this product. Refer to the

individual instructions packaged with the kits or accessories

when installing.

INTRODUCTION

Slip-in style dampers are designed for easy installation in

rectangular ductwork on residential new construction or retro-

fit applications. A 24vac, direct-drive actuator is used for

smooth, quiet performance.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal

injury or death.

Before performing installation, service or maintenance

operations on this system, turn off all main power

switches and/or disconnects. There may be more than

1 disconnect switch. Turn off accessory heater power

switch if applicable. Lock out and tag switch with a

suitable warning label.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

1. Place dampers away from areas that may be noise

sensitive. It is recommended to install zone dampers

near furnace plenum when possible. This may help

ease installation, as well as dissipate air noise

associated with zoning.

2. Install dampers in rectangular or square duct systems

only. Any frame misalignment will jam damper blades.

3. Install dampers so actuator is visible for inspection and

accessible in the event it would ever need service.

4. Use sheet metal screws to secure damper in ductwork

(do not try to weld dampers in any way).

5. To ensure proper fit and operation dampers must be

sized according to ductwork. Dampers are made

slightly smaller than nominal duct dimensions (See

Table 1).

UNIT OPERATION HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment dam-

age or improper operation.

Never force dampers into an undersized duct system. The

excess pressure can cause damper blades to jam.

NOTE: All dampers must be properly installed and supported

according to local codes or SMACNA standards. Seal duct

joints using duct tape, mastic, or other approved methods. Do

not allow mastic to come in contact with actuator.

INSTALLATION

1. To apply Side Mount or Bottom Mount dampers, first

select location for damper to be installed. Cut out a

3-in. opening in 1 side of duct at selected location.

Ensure opening is fully cut from top to bottom of seam,

this will allow damper to be inserted without obstruction

(See Fig. 1 and 2).

2. Slide damper into opening and check for proper

alignment. Secure damper using sheet metal screws

through clearance holes located on mounting plate.

UNIT OPERATION HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment

damage or improper operation.

For most damper applications the mounting plate is suf-

ficient in securing the damper into the duct system.

However, with larger size dampers (e.g. 10 in. X 18 in.)

or side mount dampers (or dampers mounted in a hori-

zontal installation), it may be necessary to additionally

secure damper to avoid drooping inside duct system

(See Fig. 3). Use extreme caution when inserting screws

in the sides of dampers; be careful not to bind or dam-

age assembly. Do not insert screws on the opposite

frame end from actuator assembly; use side rails to se-

cure.

3. Routefieldwiringtoterminalblock. Provide strain relief

to prevent wires from being pulled or snagged. Strip

wire leads and install on appropriate terminals labeled:

OPN (open), COM (common), CLS (close).

4. In areas where a duct system may experience

excessive condensing, carefully insulate over actuator

assembly and mounting plate (check local codes).

Make sure insulation does not interfere with operation

of actuator.

5. After installation is complete, check dampers and

verify they are all operating properly. When 24vac is

applied between common and open, the damper

should go full open in approximately 15 sec. If the

damper is used in a 50 Hz application, time will

increase to approximately 18 sec. Power damper and

cycle open /closed several times.

NOTE: Dampers are designed to be as quiet and efficient as

possible. However, slip-in style dampers may exhibit some

airflow noise associated with zoning. It is recommended to

check damper operation with airflow moving through the duct

system.

6. Residential dampers are designed in such a way that

if the damper blades should jam or stall it will not

damage the damper or motor. If for any reason the

damper should jam, it will usually be related to twisting

or bending of the damper body during installation, or

tension on the damper shaft. After you correct any

bending or twisting problems, damper should operate

properly. If, in an emergency, it becomes necessary to

force a damper open manually, press and hold the

disengagement (quick blade release) button with 1

hand and turn mounting hub to reposition damper

shaft. Release button to hold damper shaft in new

position.
