GMA Series Spring Return
Direct-coupled Electronic Damper Actuator.
Applications
The OpenAir GMA Series Damper Actuators are ideal for
constant or variable air volume installations for the control
of return air, mixed air, exhaust, and face and bypass
dampers that require up to 62 lb.-in. of torque.
The actuators are designed for applications where the
damper is required to return to a fail-safe position when
there is a power failure.
Models are available with either an appliance cable for
wiring in conduit or a plenum-rated cable.
