General information Min/Max actuators

Function Functional description

The actuator moves a damper blade or a damper
blade mechanism to the minimum or maximum
position.
Minimum and maximum positions can be set on
potentiometers or using mechanical stops.
1-wire control or 2-wire control (3-point) can be
used.
1-wire control is actually an open/close control or
min/max control.

Basic information and nomenclature

The quick sizing tables Reducing the sound pressure level of the air-regenerated noise
show the sound pressure
levels that can be
expected in a room both
for the air-regenerated
noise and for the case-
radiated noise. The sound
pressure level in a room
results from the sound
power level of the
products – for a given

differential pressure – and
the attenuation and
insulation on site. This is
why generally accepted
attenuation and insulation
values have been taken
into account for the tables. ‫ݢ‬

all nominal sizes. In addition, generally accepted
attenuation and insulation values have been taken
into account.
Sizing data for other volume flow rates and
