Information About M7284A1012
The M7284A1012 belongs to Honeywell’s Modutrol IV™ Series 72, a family of electric actuators known for dependable damper and valve control in commercial and industrial HVAC systems. It is a non-spring return model, meaning it maintains its last position when power is removed. Designed for analog modulating control (4–20 mA), the actuator features field-adjustable stroke, direct or reverse-acting selection, and quiet operation below 40 dB. Its compact, foot-mounted construction and enclosed wiring terminals simplify installation in air handling units, control panels, and mechanical rooms.
Key Features:
- Modulating Analog Control: Accepts a 4–20 mA or 0–10 VDC control signal for precise valve or damper positioning.
- High Torque Output: Provides 150 lb-in (17 Nm) torque for reliable operation of medium to large dampers or valves.
- Adjustable Stroke Range: Field-selectable 90° to 160° travel enables compatibility with various mechanical linkages.
- Selectable Motor Action: Switchable direct- or reverse-acting response simplifies integration with control logic.
- Manual Override: Includes declutch button for mechanical adjustment and testing without electrical power.
- Quiet Operation: Produces less than 40 dB sound at 3 ft, ideal for indoor HVAC environments.
- Long Service Life: Rated for over 60,000 full cycles and one million repositions under standard load conditions.
- Environmental Resilience: Operates in ambient temperatures from –40 °F to +150 °F (–40 °C to +60 °C) and up to 95 % RH.
- Compact, Durable Design: Die-cast aluminum housing with NEMA 3 protection against dust and moisture ingress.
- Auxiliary Switch Option: Supports field- or factory-mounted auxiliary switches for end-position feedback or interlocking.
The M7284A1012 delivers the torque, precision, and durability required for demanding HVAC damper and valve control applications.
