ok guys im on a job at the moment and some cables are missing, i was trying to figure out the connections myself before asking anyway.  (im connected most of the things up already)

anyway its a schneider damper actuator with a seperate endswitch

now am i right in thinking ill need a 6core or is the 4 core enough for the endswitch to work.

if G0 is 0v

  G 24v

  X1 (orange) input

  Y 0-10 output

would i be right in saying it need 2 cores for the endswitch, its been quite a while since i last did a damper and i cant remember, its not an issue i can ask the engineer in the morning

What do you mean by the end switch ?

The Actuator needs 4 cores - although 3 will run it as the Y output is only a signal out for a BMS or to slave other dampers (normally).

 A bit more detail may help  :Salute


ok the standard ahu damper actuators dont have an endswitch on them which is needed to show if they are open/closed.

there a clip-on accesory to the standard schneider actuator  (bassically a belimo actuator)

 
Are you wiring input and output? I only ask as more often than not you only require 3 core to wire them. Do you have a model number?

Ah ok, The microswitch thats normally in the damper schneider have separate ? (never seen a schneider)

Well you would need 2 cores for the end switch - or you may only need 1 - depends how the controls are done and the voltage.

2 cores would be safest - If the switch is a signal using the same voltage as the actuator supply (which it normally is i.e. 24Vdc or 24Vac) then you would only need 1 extra core as you already have the supply in the damper - again thats only any good if the supply is permanent -it really all depends on how its been designed.


thanks guys you have reminded how its normally done.

bassically perm 24v, 0v and 0-10 to tell it how much to open (spring return) then it will use the other core for the endswitch.

ill grab some paperwork from site tomorrow to remind myself, thanks again
