Resideo ZD6X18TZ Damper
The Resideo ZD6X18TZ is a heavy-duty, 24Vac parallel blade zone damper engineered for precision airflow management in HVAC zoning systems. Built with a rugged extruded aluminum frame and blades, this 6" x 18" unit is designed to handle high-demand residential and light commercial air distribution. The spring return open / power closed configuration ensures a fail-safe position in the event of power loss, maintaining unrestricted airflow through the branch duct. The integrated synchronous motor is mounted on the 18-inch side and features Kevlar gearing to minimize mechanical wear, significantly extending the service life of the actuator compared to standard plastic drive trains.
Installation is streamlined with a two-wire 24V motor connection, though a third terminal (M4) is available for optional LED status indication. For technicians balancing complex TrueZONE or networked zoning installations, the mechanical visual indicator provides instant confirmation of the blade position. This damper is rated for static pressures up to 1.0" WC and utilizes a low-leakage parallel blade design to minimize thermal loss. The adjustable range stops allow for precise calibration of the closed position, ensuring the system meets specific bypass or minimum airflow requirements without additional hardware.
Key Benefits
- Extruded aluminum construction provides superior corrosion resistance and structural rigidity over galvanized steel alternatives.
- Fail-safe operation via 24V spring return mechanism ensures the damper defaults to the open position for safety and comfort.
- Parallel blade design optimizes air sealing, achieving less than 1% leakage at 0.5" WC for maximum system efficiency.
- Kevlar-reinforced gears provide high-torque reliability and quiet operation in sensitive residential environments.
- Flexible mounting options allow for installation in any orientation within the ductwork, simplifying field retrofits.
Common Questions
Can the ZD6X18TZ be converted to power-open operation?
No, the ZD series is factory-configured as power closed/spring return open. For applications requiring power-open/spring-closed functionality, a round ARD series or an appropriate opposed-blade model should be specified.
What wiring is required for the position LED to function?
While the standard two-position control requires only terminals M1 and M6, the internal LED requires an additional wire to the M4 terminal to provide a localized visual signal of the damper's state.
Is this damper compatible with non-Resideo zone panels?
Yes, as long as the control panel provides a standard 24Vac signal and can handle the 8VA power draw of the synchronous motor, it can be integrated into most legacy and third-party zoning systems.
