Description 
 

The OpenAir™ direct coupled, fast-acting, two-position, spring return electronic actuators 
are available as 24 Vac/dc, 120 Vac, and 230 Vac models. They are intended for use on 
UL listed smoke control dampers and combination fire/smoke rated dampers. 

Features 

• 

Optional built-in auxiliary switches: Fixed switch points at 5° and 85 ° rotation. 

• 

Optional built-in Electronic Fusible Link (EFL) capability with four temperature 
ratings: 165°F (74°C), 212°F (100°C), 250°F (121°C), 350°F (177°C). 

• 

Reversible fail-safe spring return. 

• 

All metal housing. 

• 

Pre-cabled Teflon® insulated lead wires. 

• 

Fifteen-second operation at rated torque, temperature and voltage. 

Application 

This actuator is used for the control of dampers requiring up to 53 lb-in (6Nm) driving 
torque. It is intended for control of UL listed smoke control dampers and combination 
fire/smoke HVAC dampers. This actuator is designed to meet the 2002 revisions to the 
UL 555/555S and the AMCA Standard 520 specifications.
