Automatic Opposed Blade Dampers

(AOBD)

APPLICATION

The opposed blade dampers are rectangular dampers with a 
24-volt, two-position, power open and closed damper motor 
used to control the volume of circulating air in heating, cooling, 
and ventilating system.

FEATURES

Anodized extruded aluminum.

Three models available:

AOBD with side-mounted motor.

AOBD-BM with bottom-mounted motor.

IOBD with internally-mounted motor.

Fully assembled and ready for installation.

For odd-size dampers, contact Honeywell Customer 
Service or your local Honeywell Sales Representative 
for pricing.

Order dampers by size and model:

Order AOBD and IOBD using width by height. 
(AOBD motor and end plate are mounted on the 
height dimension.)

Order AOBD-BM using height by width. (AOBD-BM 
motor is mounted on the width dimension.)

AOBD-BM is available only up to 20 in. wide with-
out a filler strip.

When ordering AOBD-BM dampers up to 24 in. wide, a 
filler strip up to 4 in. is built-in.

For odd-size dampers, order a one-inch filler strip for 
each odd dimension.
