Torque min. 133 in-lb, for control of air dampers
Application
For proportional modulation of dampers where linear air flow
response with respect to input signal is required..
The concept of the linearizing actuator is based on the need
recognized in problem applications where the non-linearities of
dampers themselves, linkages or jackshafts, or other geomet-
ric effects cause severe modification of flow response.
The actuator operates in response to a 2 to 10 VDC, or with
the addition of a 500
Ω
resistor, a 4 to 20 mA control input
from an electronic controller or positioner. A 2 to 10 VDC
feedback signal is provided for position indication or master-
slave applications.
Operation
The AF24-LIN US series actuators provide true spring return
operation for reliable fail-safe application and positive close-off
on control dampers. The spring return system provides con-
stant torque to the damper with, and without, power applied to
the actuator.
The AF24-LIN US series provides 95° of rotation and is pro-
vided with a graduated position indicator showing 0 to 90°.
The AF24-LIN US has a manual positioning crank arm which
allows the setting of any damper position within its 95° of rota-
tion.
The actuator manual override allows pre-load to provide auto-
matic compression against damper gaskets for tight shut-off.
When power is applied, the manual mechanism is released
and the actuator drives toward the full fail-safe position. The
actuator will memorize the angle where it stops rotating and
use this point for its zero position for its normal control opera-
tions. The manual override can also be released physically by
the use of a crank supplied with the actuator.
The AF24-LIN US uses a brushless DC motor which is con-
trolled by a microprocessor. The actuator may be stalled any-
where in its normal rotation without damage.
The actuator is programmed using ZIP-RS232 hardware and
the laptop software embedded within an Excel® program. The
damper manufacturer provides a chart with the signal versus
required rotation that provides a linear air flow response with
respect to the signal. Alternately the TAB and control contrac-
tor can field adjust the program.
