Resideo ZD8X16TZ Damper
The Resideo ZD8X16TZ is a heavy-duty, rectangular zone control damper designed for high-performance forced air systems. Built with an extruded aluminum frame and parallel blades, this unit ensures low-leakage airflow control in critical zoning applications. It features a 24VAC synchronous motor mounted on the 16-inch side, delivering a power closed/spring return open fail-safe operation. This configuration is ideal for systems requiring a normally-open state during power loss to maintain baseline ventilation or heating. The parallel blade damper design provides superior seals and minimal pressure drop, typically less than 0.0329 inch WC at 800 FPM. Engineering for dual-position control, the ZD8X16TZ integrates seamlessly with Honeywell TrueZONE panels and other 24V zoning regulators. Its robust construction resists corrosion while the mechanical visual position indicator allows for quick field verification of the blade status. For contractors, the push-terminal wiring simplifies installation in tight plenum spaces.
Key Benefits- Durable Construction: Features a 0.080-inch thick extruded aluminum frame for maximum rigidity and long-term reliability in varying duct temperatures.
- High Efficiency: Parallel blade alignment and gaskets provide tight shut-off, reducing air bypass to inactive zones.
- Fail-Safe Security: The spring return open mechanism ensures the damper opens automatically if control power is lost, preventing equipment overheating.
- Simple Integration: Standard two-wire 24V hookup to M1 and M6 terminals makes it compatible with most HVAC zoning systems.
What is the difference between power-open and power-closed dampers?
A power closed spring return open damper like the ZD8X16TZ requires electricity to shut the blades; it naturally opens when power is removed. Conversely, power-open models stay shut until energized, which is less common for primary trunk lines.
Can I mount this damper in any orientation?
Yes, the Resideo ZD series is designed for flexible installation. The motor can be positioned on the bottom or side of the ducting to accommodate space constraints, provided the 16-inch dimension aligns with the motor mounting side.
Is this damper compatible with non-Honeywell zone panels?
While optimized for TrueZONE logic, this 24V zone damper operates on standard 24VAC signals, making it compatible with any zone control panel providing the correct voltage and current (8VA minimum).
