ES142 Spring Return Electronic Actuators

Wiring

24 VAC or 120 VAC

All wiring must conform to NEC and local codes and regulations.

24 VAC

Use earth ground isolating step-down Class 2 transformers. Do not use auto transformers. Determine the supply
transformer rating by summing the total VA of all actuators used. The maximum rating for a Class 2 step-down
transformer is 100 VA. The ES142 (24 VAC) actuators require 8 to 9 VA; therefore it is recommended that up to
10 actuators (between 80 and 90% of transformer VA) can be powered by one transformer. Operating more than
10 actuators requires additional transformers or separate 100 VA power trunks.

WARNING:

Mixed switch operation is not permitted. To the switching output
only apply:

• Standard cable (250 Vac/24 Vdc)

− UL/cUL: line voltage, or

− UL/cUL: Class 2 voltage.

s of both auxiliary switches (A and B),

NOTE

: Either all six outputs of the dual auxiliary

outputs must be connected to Class 2 voltage.

• Plenum cable (24V)

− UL/cUL: Class 2 voltage.

Sizing Actuators for Damper Applications

The number of actuators required depends on several factors. To determine the
the installation:

1. Obtain damper torque ratings (ft-lb/ft

2. Determine the area of the damper.

3. Calculate the total torque required to move the damper:

Total Torque = Torque Rating x Damper Area

safety factor is 0.80 (or 80% of the rated torque).

Mechanical coupling of the actuator is allowed if:

• The same type of actuator is used.

• The operating voltage is within the tolerance.

ACCESSORIES

NOTE: The auxiliary switches and/or the control signal adjustment cannot be added in the field. Order the

product number that includes the option(s), if required.

ASK71.1U This kit allows foot mounting of the ES142
actuator. This kit should be used for
in-the-airstream applications, and generally, anywhere
a foot-mounted actuator can be mounted.

This kit contains a crank arm that changes the angular

ASK71.2U This kit allows mounting of the ES142

actuator directly to a damper frame. This kit should be
used with louvers and vents, and in applications where
use of the floor mount kit is not possible.

This kit contains a crank arm that changes the angular
rotation into a linear st

roke, a support bearing ring to
minimize side loading on the actuator’s output bearing,
a mounting bracket, and required mounting fasteners.

ASK71.3 This kit allows a direct coupled actuator to
provide an auxiliary linear drive. This crank arm kit can
be used to simultaneously drive a set of opposing or
adjacent dampers with a single actuator.

This kit includes a crank arm that attaches to the
splined hub

of the shaft adapter, and other required

mounting fasteners.

ASK71.4 This kit allows economical mounting of an
actuator to a variety of surfaces. This kit should be
used in applications where the actuator can be rigidly
surface mounted and a linear stroke output is required.

This kit includes a crank arm that attaches to the
splined hub

of the shaft adapter, a mounting bracket,

and other required mounting fasteners.

ASK73.1 This bracket provides an extended anti-

rotation pin that allows two ES142 actuators to directly
drive a single damper shaft. For use with two and
three–position actuators.

a shaft up to 1.00 inch (25.4 mm) in diameter. (The
special shaft adapter will attach to a 1.05-inch
(26.6-mm) diameter shaft.) This shaft adapter is
13/16-inches (20 mm) taller than the height of the
special shaft adapter.
