Thank you for purchasing a Munters IA Inlet Actuator. Munters equipment is designed to be the highest performing,
highest quality equipment you can buy. With the proper installation and maintenance it will provide many years
of service.
Description:
The IA0090/IA0250D motor gearbox is a maintenance-free, compact drive unit for accurately opening and
closing air inlet flaps, air valves and ventilation curtains in livestock houses and crop storage buildings.
The IA0090/IA0250D motor gearbox features a self-braking worm gear transmission. This transmission ensures
that the drive shaft is not rotatable when the drive unit is stopped. The combination of carefully matched pinion and
worm reductions results in a quiet mechanical transmission.
The IA0090/IA0250D motor gearboxes feature a power switching integrated linear limit switch system with duty
and safety switches with an excellent switching precision of the end positions. The maximum switching range of the
limit switch system equates to 55 revolutions of the drive shaft. With use of an optional potentiometer built-in set, it
is possible to precisely feedback intermediate and end positions to a (climate) computer.
The IA0090/IA0250D motor gearboxes are finished with a blue powder coating and are supplied including
mounting bolts and spring washers.

3.2 Connecting the control components: Switch Materials and cable lengths
ATTENTION:
Please use only suitable control components and switch materials. Make sure you are using the correct equipment by
consulting the information on the control components and switch materials.
3.3 OVERVIEW: Connections and Elements for “Operating & Setting”
The overview in image 3.3.2 shows the most important connections, parts and elements for operating and setting a
IA0090 motor gearbox. As shown in image 3.3.1, remove the limit switch cover of the gearbox.
TIP: Cover in image 3.3.2 is also removed for a complete overview. However it is not necessary to remove cover in
3.4 Rotational Directions and End Positions IA0090 Motor Gearbox
The rotational direction for the IA0090 is Clockwise [CW] (A) which is towards the motor and Counter
Clockwise [CCW] (B) which is away from the motor. Also visible are the corresponding limit switches for setting
the end positions A and B. See figure below.
Based on where the IA0090 and inlets are mounted and the direction the belt is wrapped on the drum,
determine which direction will be open and which will be close.
3.5 Wiring Diagrams IA0090 Motor Gearbox
Two wiring diagrams are applicable during installing and setting of the IA0090 gearbox. A temporary and a
permanent diagram are used in a number of steps according to Step 3.5.
Temporary connections(diagram 3.5.2):
This is only used for setting switch, according to Step 3.6, prior to making the permanent connections of the
IA0090 gearbox. Therefor a Temporary Power Cable is connected to the switch.
Permanent connections (diagram 3.5.4):
Make the permanent connections of the IA0090 gearbox after setting of the switch.
TIP: If the operation of position feedback is applicable, installation and setting of a potentiometer (P) is done separately in
Step 3.7 and Step 3.8.
!
CAUTION
The IA0090 motor gearbox is standard delivered with switch S1 in stop position. Switch S1
is still in STOP position when starting temporary or permanent connections!
The image and the diagram below show the permanent connections of the IA0090 gearbox.

* Suitable for inductive load of 115V - 2,5 A
ATTENTION:
When setting the Limit Switch after the permanent
connections, make sure that S111 and P71 (or
equivalent parts) are configured toprovide power
to L1 (13) of connection block K1!
TIP: Reverse the direction of
rotation of the IA0090 if desired.
The direction of rotation can be
turned by changing connections
12 and 13 (L2 and L1) in the
connection block K1.
If the motor gearbox is manual operated by means of the hexagon socket in the electric motor shaft, with an limit switch
system which is set, it has to be checked that the end positions of the system will not be exceeded.
This can cause damage to the limit switch system, as a result of which the limit switch system will not function well
anymore.
Operating mode
Make sure the switch S1 is put in CW (A)/Auto position when permanent connections are done and
setting of the Switch is finished.

Place the limit switch cover①, with the gasket ① still in place, and mount it with the four bolts.
See image 3.3.1.
TIP: If the feedback option is applicable, then first install and set the potentiometer (P) according to Step 3.4 and Step 3.5.
For an IA0090P, the Potentiometer set comes pre-installed in the
unit for a typical installation with a 1m belt we recommend using the
gears Z1 – 25 and Z2 – 25.
1. Slide Potentiometer with gear towards the other gear without
turning the shaft of the pot, so that the teeth on each gear nest
together and tighten the pot nut with the hex key wrench. See
Figure A.
2. The Potentiometer is pre-wired to the terminal bock K2. Make
the connections between the controller and terminal block K2. See Figure B. If the Pot is changing voltage from low
in the open position to high in the closed position then reverse the red and black wire on the controller side of terminal
block K2.
3.8 Potentiometer table IA0090 motor gearbox (i=1,0)
The table below can be used to select the necessary gearwheels when fitting a potentiometer and
installation set in an IA0090 motor gearbox. The table shows the maximum number of revolutions of
the drive shaft of the IA0090 motor gearbox.
A range of 9 revolutions of the potentiometer has been chosen for maximum precision and sufficient
reserve rotations when using a potentiometer. If the desired number of revolutions falls below the
minimum value given, a 5-turn potentiometer may be used. In that case, the values in the table that
give the maximum number of revolutions of the drive, should be divided by 2.
