DAMPER WIRING
Note:
The 100mA Damper Auto-Reset Circuit Breaker
(protecting each zone damper output) may trip, if too
many dampers (or incompatible dampers) are connected
to a single zone!
You can connect up to three (3) Model ND, URD, or
SID type dampers to a single terminal block without
tripping the breaker, regardless of the ambient
temperature.
Note:
You can select all zone dampers to default
"OPEN" or "CLOSE" during IDLE periods.
Idle periods are defined as:
* The HVAC system is idle and not running.
* Caution: Inverter based "Oil Return "mode runs without a
zone thermostat demand!
* All Fan/Purge functions have timed out.
* All zone thermostat demands are satisfied.
* No zone thermostat demands are detected.
Zone thermostat demands are defined as:
* Heating
* Cooling
* Fan Only / Circulate
* Humidification / De-humidification

Resist the urge to wire damper motors in series, jumping
from motor to motor to motor. Wiring multiple motors in
parallel (as shown below in Figures 5b and 5c) reduces
the possibility of loose connections, high resistance and
voltage drop.
On these dampers and most older style dampers,
always wire up number to number or by terminal
designations. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR WIRING!

It is highly recommended
to specify genuine Ultra-
Zone ND, URD or SID
dampers.
EWC power open &
power close dampers
draw very low current
(26mA) produce 18"lb of
torque at 35second
travel time, and have
LED position indicators.
No other residential zone
damper is stronger, more
efficient or as reliable.
