Review the power, input, and output specifications on page 1 

before installing the controller.

— Hardware driven by Triac outputs must have a minimum 

current draw, when energized, of 25 mA and a maximum 

current draw of 500 mA.

— Hardware driven by the analog current outputs must have 

a maximum resistance of 550 Ohms, resulting in a 

maximum voltage of 11 volts when driven at 20 mA.

If resistance exceeds 550 Ohms, voltages up to 18 Vdc are 

possible at the analog output terminal.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard.

Can cause severe injury, death or property 

damage.

Disconnect power supply before beginning wiring or 

making wiring connections to prevent electrical shock 

or equipment damage.

INSTALLATION

The controller must be mounted in a position that allows 

clearance for wiring, servicing, removal, connection of the 

BACnet MS/TP Molex connector and access to the MS/TP 

MAC address DIP switches.

The controller may be mounted in any orientation.

IMPORTANT

Avoid mounting in areas where acid fumes or other 

deteriorating vapors can attack the metal parts of the 

controller, or in areas where escaping gas or other 

explosive vapors are present. Fig. 4–Fig. 5 on 

page 4 for mounting dimensions.

For the PVB6436AS model, the actuator is mounted first and 

then the controller is mounted. For the other models, go to 

“Mount Controller” on page 3 to begin the installation.

Mount Actuator onto Damper Shaft 

(PVB6436AS)

PVB6436AS controller includes the direct-coupled actuator 

with Declutch mechanism, which is shipped hard-wired to the 

controller.

The actuator mounts directly onto the VAV box damper shaft 

and has up to 44 lb-in. (5 Nm) torque, 90-degree stroke, and 

90 second timing at 60 Hz. The actuator is suitable for 

mounting onto a 3/8 to 1/2 in. (10 to 13 mm) square or round 

VAV box damper shaft. The minimum VAV box damper shaft 

length is 1-9/16 in. (40 mm).

The two mechanical end-limit set screws control the amount 

of rotation from 12° to 95°. These set screws must be securely 

fastened in place. To ensure tight closing of the damper, the 

shaft adapter has a total rotation stroke of 95° (see Fig. 1).

NOTES:

1.

The actuator is shipped with the mechanical end-

limit set screws set to 95 degrees of rotation. 

Adjust the two set screws closer together to 

reduce the rotation travel. Each “hash mark” indi-

cator on the bracket represents approximately 

6.5° of rotation per side.

2.

The Declutch button, when pressed, allows you to 

rotate the universal shaft adapter (see Fig. 1).

IMPORTANT

Determine the damper rotation and opening angle 

prior to installation. See Fig. 2 below and Fig. 3 on 

page 3 for examples.

IMPORTANT

Mount actuator flush with damper housing or add a 

spacer between the actuator mounting surface and 

damper box housing.
