  • Refer also to HOYME Installation Instructions: Combustion Air Control Damper, Series HOM; Adaptor 0241-10A (24Vac – switches line voltage); and Adaptor 1101 (line voltage – switches 24Vac)
  • Specs.:24Vac, 50/60 Hz. Motor 5 watts. Relay Coil 0.05 Amps. A separate Transformer 24Vac of sufficient capacity is required for most installations

AIR CONTROL DAMPERS are designed to be tight sealing, self cleaning with nylon bearings to provide many years of trouble free service. Damper and Appliance shall be checked annually

ELECTRICAL WIRING shall be done in accordance with the National Electrical Codes or with Local Codes where they prevail. Additional wire shall be of the same size and type as used with existing control circuits

INSTALLER must be a trained, qualified person. Name and address of installer and date of installation must be recorded on label located on central body

MAC Series shall be fastened with screws to the terminating end of an adequately supported air duct.

Wiring Diagrams shown are suggestions only and do not limit other ways of wiring.

General Instructions:

  1. Install Air Control Damper as per mounting instructions above
  2. Turn off electrical power supply and connect electrical wires as per diagram appropriate to the Damper being installed. Follow applicable codes
  3. Connect 24Vac, 50/60 Hz. Transformer of sufficient capacity to 120Vac fan circuit or power circuit as per appropriate wiring diagram below
  4. Connect 24Vac Circuit using ample length of wire to reach each Damper
  5. Re-check and confirm that choice of Damper matches proper Wiring Diagram
  6. Turn on electrical power supply. Dampers in the open position will now close
  7. Turn on appliance (or switch) and where necessary, cause re-circulating fan to operate. Air control Damper(s) will open as per Wiring Diagram
  8. Affix appropriate labels and follow instructions and warnings on each label
