NOTES:
The auxiliary switch setting shafts rotate with the actuator. The scale is valid only
when the actuator is in the “0” position on clockwise motion.
For the counterclockwise rotation, the adjustment lever has to move from 90° to 0° by
using the manual override and then adjust the auxiliary switches. After the auxiliary
switches are adjusted, the adjustment lever has to move back to the 90° position.
Use the long arm of the X to point to the position of switch A. Use the narrower tab on
the red ring to point to the position of switch B.
Sizing
The type of actuator required depends on several factors.
1. Obtain damper torque ratings (ft-lb/ft
2
or Nm/m
2
) from the damper manufacturer.
2. Determine the area of the damper.
3. Calculate the total torque required to move the damper:
Total Torque =
SF

Safety Factor: When determining the torque of an actuator required, a safety
factor should be included for unaccountable variables such as slight
misalignments, aging of the damper, etc. A suggested safety factor is 0.80 (or
80% of the rated torque).
4. Select the actuator type from Table 2.
