Application
For proportional modulation of dampers in HVAC systems. Actuator sizing should
be done in accordance with the damper manufacturer’s specifications.
The actuator is mounted directly to a damper shaft up to 1.05” in diameter by
means of its universal clamp. A crankarm and several mounting brackets are
available for applications where the actuator cannot be direct coupled to the
damper shaft.
The actuator operates in response to a 2 to 10 VDC, with the addition of a 500
7
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 AF series actuators provide true spring return operation for reliable fail-safe
application and positive close-off on air tight dampers. The spring return system
provides constant torque to the damper with, and without, power applied to the
actuator.
The AF series provides 95° of rotation and is provided with a graduated position
indicator showing 0 to 95°. The AF has a unique manual positioning mechanism
which allows the setting of any damper position within its 95° of rotation. The
actuator is shipped at +5° position (5° from full fail-safe) to provide automatic
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 operations. The manual
override can also be released physically by the use of a crank supplied with the
actuator.
The AF uses a brushless DC motor which is controlled by an Application Specific
Integrated Circuit (ASIC) and a microprocessor. The microprocessor provides the
intelligence to the ASIC to provide a constant rotation rate and to know the
actuator’s exact zero position. The ASIC monitors and controls the brushless DC
motor’s rotation and provides a digital rotation sensing function to prevent
damage to the actuator in a stall condition. The actuator may be stalled anywhere
in its normal rotation without the need of mechanical end switches.
