The M9220-xxx-3 actuators are direct-mount,
spring-return electric actuators that operate
with these available power options:
• AC 24 V at 50/60 Hz or DC 24 V
(AGx, BGx, GGx, HGx)
• AC 120 V at 60 Hz (BAx)
• AC 230 V at 50/60 Hz (BDx)
These bidirectional actuators do not require a
damper linkage, and are easily installed on
dampers with 1/2 to 3/4 in. or 12 to 19 mm
round shafts, or 3/8 and 1/2 in. or 10, 12, and
14 mm square shafts using the standard shaft
clamp included with the actuator. An optional
M9220-600 Jackshaft Coupler Kit is available
for 3/4 to 1-1/16 in. or 19 to 27 mm round
shafts, or 5/8 and 3/4 in. or 16, 18, and 19 mm
square shafts.
A single M9220-xxx-3 Electric Spring-Return
Actuator provides a running and spring-return
torque of 177 lb·in (20 N·m). Two or three
models mounted in tandem deliver twice or
triple the torque. Integral line voltage auxiliary
switches are available on the -xxC models to
indicate end-stop position or to perform
switching functions within the selected rotation
range.
Refer to the M9220-xxx-3 Electric
Spring-Return Actuators Product Bulletin
(LIT-12011057) for important product
application information.
Features
• Available Torques of 177 lb·in (20 N·m) for
Single Actuators, 354 lb·in (40 N·m) for Two
Models, and 531 lb·in (60 N·m) for Three
Models Mounted in Tandem — offer a
selection that is most suitable for the
application.
• Reversible Mounting Design — simplifies
installation and enables the actuator to
spring return in either direction.
• Electronic Stall Detection throughout Entire
Rotation Range — extends the life of the
actuator by deactivating the actuator motor
when an overload condition is detected.
• Removable Coupler — adapts to a shorter
damper shaft.
• Integral 48 in. (1.2 m) Halogen-Free Cables
with Colored and Numbered Conductors —
simplify field wiring.
• Integral Auxiliary Switches (xxC Models) —
provide one fixed and one adjustable switch
point with line voltage capability.
• NEMA 2 (IP54) Rated Aluminum Enclosure
— protects the internal components of the
actuator from dirt and moisture.
• Easy-to-Use Locking Manual Override with
Auto Release and Crank Storage — allows
for manual positioning of the actuator hub.
• Integral Connectors for 3/8 in. Flexible
Metal Conduit — simplify installation and
field wiring.
• Microprocessor-Controlled Brushless
DC Motor (-AGx, -GGx, and -HGx types) —
provides constant run-time independent of
torque.

Applications
The M9220-xxx-3 Electric Spring-Return
Actuators provide reliable control of dampers
and valves in HVAC systems. The
M9220-xxx-3 Actuators are available for use
with on/off, floating, and proportional
controllers.
Repair Information
If the M9220 Series Electric Actuator fails to
operate within its specifications, replace the
unit. For a replacement actuator, contact the
nearest Johnson Controls® representative.
