iO HVAC Controls BAL-10 Damper with Actuator
The iO HVAC Controls BAL-10 is a heavy-duty, 10-inch round electronic remote balancing damper engineered for precision airflow management in commercial and residential ductwork. Built with a 20-gauge galvanized steel shell, this motorized balancing damper is the professional standard for high-performance air balancing in hard-to-access locations, such as finished ceilings or restricted mechanical runs. Unlike manual dampers that require physical access to a locking quad, the BAL-10 features a factory-mounted 9VDC gear-driven proportional actuator that responds to precise signals from a handheld positioner.
Designed for maximum field flexibility, the actuator includes dual RJ11 connectors, allowing technicians to daisy-chain up to nine dampers for streamlined control of complex branch runs. The BAL-10 operates without the need for dedicated line voltage or field power; instead, it draws temporary power from the BAL-C handheld controller (sold separately) via a standard RJ11 cable. This 10" remote powered balancing damper ensures a "fail-in-place" position, maintaining system balance even after the controller is disconnected. It is compatible with optional wall boxes, ceiling plates, and diffuser connectors for a clean, professional finish on any project.
Key Benefits:- No Field Power Required: Eliminates the need for 24V or 120V wiring at the damper location, drastically reducing installation labor.
- Daisy-Chain Scalability: Integrated dual RJ11 ports allow for multiple dampers to be linked and balanced from a single access point.
- Precise Proportional Control: Gear-driven actuator enables exact blade positioning for fine-tuned airflow rather than basic open/close operation.
- Inaccessible Area Solution: Ideal for luxury residential or commercial spaces where architectural finishes prevent the use of standard manual balancing dampers.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: 20-gauge steel frame resists racking and ensures long-term reliability in high-velocity systems up to 2,000 FPM.
- How do I adjust the BAL-10 if it is behind drywall? Use an RJ11 cable run from the damper to a remote wall plate or diffuser port; then, simply plug in the BAL-C controller to adjust the blade setting.
- Does this damper require a permanent power source? No, the actuator is powered exclusively by the 9V battery inside the handheld BAL-C positioner during the balancing process.
- What happens if I lose the handheld controller? The damper is a "fail-in-place" model, meaning it will stay at its last set position indefinitely until another 9V signal is applied.
