SPECIFICATIONS
Actuator Inputs
Input Control Signals: Refer to the actuator selection tables beginning on page 3 for input
control signal capability versus specific actuator models.
Floating, Requires one Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch with floating (center
off) position rated at 0.9 amps @ 24 Vac or two Single Pole Single Throw (SPST)
switches rated at 0.9 amps @ 24 Vac.
Two-Position,
SPDT Requires snap acting switch rated at 0.9 amps @ 24 Vac.
SPST Can be used with certain spring return actuators. Switch must be rated to
handle actuator power requirements.
TAC Microtherm
®
, Proportional Electrical system with the following typical controllers:
PP-22x series, TP-1xx series, TP-2xx series, TP-3xx series, TP-4xx series, TP-1xxx
series, and TP-1xxxx series.
