This damper connects to an Arzel Zoning control panel via pneumatic tubing and opens or closes in response to low-pressure air or vacuum supplied by a medical-grade pump housed inside the panel. The motorless, gearless actuator design eliminates mechanical drive components, reducing points of failure and extending service life. The side-mount configuration places the actuator on the shorter dimension of the damper. Licensed HVAC technicians install this damper as part of multi-zone residential or light commercial duct systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis damper is intended for installation in rectangular metal ductwork as part of an Arzel Zoning system. Installation involves cutting a hole into the metal duct, inserting the damper body, and securing it with screws. The insertable design makes the STKSS-E-8X18 well suited for retrofit applications where existing ductwork is already in place. Arzel dampers are not position sensitive, allowing flexible placement within the duct run. Sleeved dampers are available separately for non-metal ductwork applications. This model is one of 70 stock sizes in the EzySlide line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotorless, gearless pneumatic actuation driven by low-pressure air or vacuum from the panel pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSide-mount actuator orientation — actuator positioned on the shorter (8 inch) dimension\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInsertable installation method — cut duct opening, insert damper, and secure with screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRetrofit-friendly design compatible with existing metal duct systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot position sensitive — can be installed in any orientation within the duct run\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eActuated by medical-grade pump inside the Arzel Zoning control panel via pneumatic tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with any Arzel Zoning control panel.

Before cutting into the duct, power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect and verify the system is off. Cut the duct opening to the specified damper dimensions, insert the damper body, and fasten with sheet metal screws. Connect the pneumatic tubing to the Arzel Zoning control panel per the panel manufacturer's instructions. Do not install in non-metal ductwork without a compatible sleeve adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 x 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Side mount (actuator on shorter dimension)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuation Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pneumatic (low-pressure air or vacuum)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuct Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metal ductwork (sleeved version available for non-metal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePosition Sensitivity\u003c\/strong\u003e: None — not position sensitive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ARZEL ZONING TECHNOLOGY\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: STKSS-E-8X18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ARZEL ZONING TECHNOLOGY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525339250994,"sku":"STKSS-E-8X18","price":191.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/19bc23a744acda79085a0531c5f5766f.jpg?v=1785470956","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/arzel-zoning-technology-stkss-e-8x18-ezyslide-side-mount-damper","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
