1. Okwu mmalite
This manual provides essential information for the installation, operation, and maintenance of the Generic M9104 Series 24V Floating Non-Spring Return Actuator. This direct-mount electric actuator is designed for precise control in various HVAC applications, including Variable Air Volume (VAV) boxes, Variable Volume and Temperature (VVT) two-position zone applications, and small to medium-sized dampndi ozo.
The M9104 Series operates on AC 24V power and provides floating control. It delivers a running torque of 35 lb·in (4 N·m) with a nominal travel time of 60 seconds at 60 Hz (72 seconds at 50 Hz) for 90 degrees of rotation. Its compact size facilitates easy installation on round shafts up to 1/2 inch (13 mm) in diameter or 3/8 inch (10 mm) square shafts.

4. Ntọala na nwụnye
The M9104 actuator is designed for direct mounting. Ensure the damper shaft is clean and free of obstructions before installation.
4.1 Ịkwanye Actuator
- Position the actuator on the damper shaft. The actuator is compatible with round shafts up to 1/2 inch (13 mm) or 3/8 inch (10 mm) square shafts.
- Secure the actuator to the shaft using the provided mounting hardware. Ensure a tight fit to prevent slippage.
- Verify that the actuator can rotate freely through its full range of motion without obstruction.

4.2 Waya
Ịdọ aka ná ntị: Disconnect all power before performing any wiring connections. Incorrect wiring can damage the actuator or connected equipment.
- The M9104-AGA-2S model is equipped with plenum cables for wiring.
- Connect the actuator to a 24V AC power source according to the wiring diagram provided with your specific unit (refer to product documentation for detailed diagrams).
- Gbaa mbọ hụ na njikọ niile echekwara na mkpuchi.
- The actuator utilizes floating control, typically requiring three wires: common, open, and close signals.

5. Ntuziaka ọrụ
The M9104 actuator provides floating control, meaning its position is determined by the duration of power applied to its 'open' or 'close' terminals. It does not have a spring return function, so it will remain in its last commanded position upon power loss.
- Floating Control: The actuator moves to an open or closed position based on a continuous 24V AC signal to the respective control input.
- Ndokwa: Ka ịkwaga damper, apply 24V AC to the 'open' terminal to drive it towards the open position, or to the 'close' terminal to drive it towards the closed position. Remove power from both control terminals to stop the actuator at its current position.
- Travel Time: A full 90-degree rotation takes approximately 60 seconds (at 60 Hz). Adjust the duration of the control signal to achieve desired intermediate positions.
6. Nlekọta
The M9104 actuator is designed for reliable, maintenance-free operation under normal conditions. However, periodic checks can help ensure optimal performance.
- Nlele anya: Lelee onye na-eme ihe maka ihe ịrịba ama ọ bụla nke mmebi anụ ahụ, njikọ adịghị mma, ma ọ bụ oke uzuzu.
- Nchekwa mgbanye: Ensure the actuator remains securely mounted to the damper shaft. Tighten any loose mounting hardware if necessary.
- Ịdị mma Wiring: Check wiring connections for corrosion or damage. Ensure insulation is intact.
- Nyochaa ọrụ: Verify that the actuator moves smoothly through its full range of motion without binding or unusual noises.

| Actuator moves in the wrong direction. | Incorrect wiring of open/close signals. | Reverse the open and close control wires. |
| Actuator makes unusual noises or binds. | Damper shaft obstruction; Loose mounting; Internal damage. | Nyochaa damper for obstructions; Tighten mounting hardware; Replace actuator if internal damage is suspected. |
| Actuator does not reach full open/close position. | Damper mechanical stops; Insufficient control signal duration. | Lelee damper for mechanical limits; Ensure control signal is applied for the full travel time (approx. 60 seconds for 90°). |
