ELECTRIC CONTROL FUNDAMENTALS
ENGINEERING MANUAL OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL

Damper: A device used to control the flow of air in a duct or
through a wall louver.
Line voltage: A term which refers to the normal electric supply
voltage. Line voltage can be used directly in some
control circuits or can be connected to the primary
side of a step down transformer to provide power for
a low-voltage control circuit. Most line-voltage
devices function at their rated v10%/–15%.
Line-voltage devices should be tested and listed by
an appropriate approval agency.
Linkage: A device which connects an actuator to a damper or
control valve. To open and close a damper, the typical
linkage consists of an actuator crankarm, balljoints,
pushrod, and damper crank arm. In a valve application,
the linkage connects the actuator to the valve and
translates the rotary output of the actuator to the linear
action of the valve stem.
Low voltage: A term which applies to wiring or other electrical
devices using 30 volts or less. Low-voltage control
devices usually function on 24V ac +10%/–15%.
Relay: A device consisting of a solenoid coil which operates
load-carrying switching contacts when the coil is
energized. Relays can have single or multiple contacts.
Transformer: A device used to change voltage from one level
to another. For control circuits this is usually line
voltage to low voltage. Transformers can be used only
on ac power.
HOW ELECTRIC CONTROL CIRCUITS ARE CLASSIFIED
There are seven basic electric control circuits, each of
which has unique characteristics. These control circuits are
identified by Series Numbers 10, 20, 40, 60, 70, 80, and 90
(Table 1). Series 10 and 20 are no longer used. Series 70 is
electronic control and is covered in the Electronic Control
Fundamentals section.
The construction of individual control devices conforms to
the requirements for the basic series for which it is intended.
However, there are many applications which incorporate
controls of different series in the same control circuit.
Table 1. Honeywell Electric Control Circuits.
Table 1 lists and describes the basic control circuits. These
basic circuits are frequently expanded to provide additional
features such as:
1. High-limit override or control.
2. Low-limit override or control.
3. Minimum/maximum positioning of dampers and valves.
4. Manual reset.
The following paragraphs illustrate and discuss some of the
more common applications. To make it easier to understand
the control circuits, the simplest circuits (i.e., Series 40) are
presented first.
