DS-3153 High-Temperature Pneumatic Piston Damper Actuator
Description
The DS-3153 Pneumatic Actuator is a
multipurpose positioning device used primarily
for operating smoke ventilating dampers in
response to the output signals of a pneumatic
controller or electro-pneumatic transducer
during life safety applications.
The DS-3153 can be used with dampers up to
a maximum area of 16 square feet for
proportional volume control and 25 square
feet for two-position actuation, provided that
the torque requirements are compatible with
the specific application.
The DS-3153 is UL/cUL component
recognized for use on UL classified 555/555S
smoke and combination fire/smoke dampers,
which have been tested and approved to a
degradation temperature of 350
°F (176°C).
Refer to the DS-3153 Pneumatic Actuator
Product Bulletin (LIT-2681072) for important
product application information.
Features
high-temperature pilot positioner available
for additional positioning power and
sequential control
all metal bearings for high-temperature
exposure
all-aluminum housing, which is lightweight
and non-combustible
telescoping linkage for fast and flexible
installation
two-way swivel head to ensure full power
delivery
3-year warranty to provide confidence of
company standing behind product
Applications
When used with proportional control, the
damper size is limited to 16 square feet
maximum. As a two-position control, the
damper size is limited to 25 square feet.
The nominal spring range is 8 to 13 psi. The
control air pressure for normal HVAC
operation is 0 to 20 psig. The minimum control
pressure for safety damper functions is
20 psig with the maximum pressure of
30 psig. When used for both proportional and
safety applications, a separate air signal
should be provided to override normal HVAC
operation and cause safety damper functions.
Where precision sequential operation is
desired, or additional positioning power is
necessary, a pilot positioner is available.
Repair Information
If the DS-3153 Pneumatic Actuator fails to
operate within its specifications, replace the
unit. For a replacement actuator, contact the
nearest Johnson Controls® representative.
