Siemens Building Technology GPC161.1P Actuator
The Siemens Building Technology GPC161.1P Actuator is a professional-grade modulating spring return actuator designed for the precise control of economizers and small air dampers. Operating on 24V AC/DC, this OpenAir damper actuator delivers 35 lb-in torque (4 Nm) with a consistent 60-second runtime and a 15-second fail-safe spring return. Engineered for high-stakes HVACR environments, the GPC161.1P features a brushless DC motor with stall protection, ensuring long-term reliability without the risk of burnout. This unit supports a 0(2) to 10 VDC modulating control signal and provides a 0 to 10 VDC voltage feedback signal for real-time position monitoring at the controller. The plenum-rated housing and 3ft pre-cabled lead allow for immediate integration into ceiling spaces or air handling units. Its compact rotary design is ideal for technical upgrades where space is a premium but proportional performance is non-negotiable.
Key Benefits
- Precision Modulation: Optimized for 0-10V or 2-10V control signals, offering smooth proportional adjustment for small dampers.
- Fail-Safe Protection: Reliable mechanical spring return ensures the damper reaches its safety position during power interruptions.
- Brushless DC Technology: Built-in stall protection prevents motor damage at end-of-stroke, extending the service life of the electronic damper actuator.
- Plenum Rated: Meets UL 2043 requirements for installation in environmental air spaces without additional enclosures.
- Integrated Feedback: Includes a 0-10 VDC position feedback signal for accurate remote monitoring and diagnostics.
Common Questions
Does this actuator require a specific mounting orientation?
The GPC161.1P is bi-directional; the shaft adapter can be mounted on either side to change the spring return direction (Clockwise or Counter-Clockwise) based on your damper's fail-safe requirements.
Can I use this for larger multi-zone dampers?
This model is rated for 35 lb-in torque, typically sufficient for dampers up to 8 square feet. Always calculate the total air load and friction before installation to ensure the 4 Nm rating is adequate.
What is the purpose of the 0-10 VDC feedback wire?
The feedback signal (Terminal U) allows your building automation system (BAS) to verify the actual position of the damper, which is critical for AEO (Airflow Efficiency Optimization) and troubleshooting mechanical linkages.
