Siemens Building Technology GMA163.1P Actuator
For high-performance air handling and precise environmental control, the Siemens Building Technology GMA163.1P is a heavy-duty OpenAir rotary actuator engineered for modulating applications. Operating on 24V AC/DC, this spring return electronic damper actuator delivers a reliable 62 lb-in torque (7 Nm), making it an industry standard for managing return air, mixed air, and exhaust dampers. The GMA163.1P is specifically distinguished by its adjustable span and offset capabilities, allowing technicians to calibrate the 0-10VDC control signal to match specific system requirements. Built with a brushless DC motor and stall protection, it ensures long-term operational consistency without the risk of burnout during high-load scenarios. The integrated 3ft plenum-rated cable and self-centering shaft coupling streamline installation on square shafts (1/4" to 1/2") or round shafts (1/4" to 3/4"), providing a secure, no-slip grip that eliminates the need for frequent field adjustments. With a rapid 15-second fail-safe spring return and 90-second runtime, this unit provides the critical response needed for building safety and energy efficiency.
Key Benefits- Precision Modulation: Features unique adjustable span (2..30 VDC) and offset (0..5 VDC) settings for custom control signal scaling.
- Reliable Fail-Safe: Mechanical spring return ensures dampers reach a safe position immediately upon power loss.
- Simplified Mounting: The self-centering shaft adapter reduces installation time and minimizes mechanical slippage.
- Built-in Feedback: Provides a 0-10VDC position feedback signal for real-time monitoring via the building automation system.
- Durability: Rated for over 100,000 full stroke cycles and 5 million repositions to withstand demanding HVACR environments.
Can the GMA163.1P handle both 24VAC and 24VDC power supplies?
Yes, this actuator is dual-rated for 24VAC ±20% and 24VDC ±15% supply voltages, offering flexibility for various control panels.
What is the purpose of the adjustable span and offset on this model?
The adjustment potentiometers allow you to define the start point (offset) and the range (span) of the control signal, which is essential for sequencing multiple actuators or matching non-standard controller outputs.
How do I manually position the actuator during a power-off commissioning phase?
The unit includes a manual override feature. Use the 3mm hex key to rotate the actuator to the desired position, then engage the gear train lock to hold it in place.
