Warning/Caution Notations

WARNING:

Personal injury/loss of life may

occur if you do not follow a

procedure as specified.

CAUTION:

Equipment damage or loss of

data may occur if you do not

follow a procedure as

specified.

Instructions

WARNING:

Do not open the actuator.

NOTE: Place the actuator on the damper shaft so

that the front of the actuator is accessible.

The label is on the front side.

1. Determine whether the damper blades will rotate

clockwise or counterclockwise to open. See Figure

12 and Figure 13.

2. If the blades will rotate counterclockwise, slide the

manual override switch to manual, and move the

adjustment lever to the right. Return the switch to

automatic. See Figure 9.

Mounting and Installation

Mounting Orientation

UL NEMA Type 2 and IP54 approved in all positions

except as shown below:

Figure 2. Unapproved Position for UL NEMA Type 2

and IP54.

NOTE: The GDE/GLB Enhanced actuator comes with

a factory-installed 1/2-inch shaft guide. If the

shaft size is 1/2-inch, proceed with Figure 6.

Document No. 129-587 Installation Instructions October 20, 2016 Wiring All wiring must conform to NEC and local codes and regulations. Use earth ground isolating step-down Class 2 transformers. Do not use autotransformers. Determine the supply transformer rating by summing total VA of all actuators used. It is recommended that one transformer power no more than 10 actuators.  Use safety-isolating transformers (Class III transformer) per EN 61558. They must be rated for 100% duty cycle.
