Io Hvac Controls BAL-3010 Electronic Balancing Damper

Product Description

The IO HVAC CONTROLS BAL-3010 is a rectangular electronic balancing damper with an integrated actuator designed for precise airflow regulation in forced-air HVAC ductwork. At 30 x 10 inches, this damper uses an electric actuator to modulate or open and close the blade assembly, allowing a technician to balance airflow across zones or branches without manual damper adjustment. Weighing 11.336 pounds, the unit arrives as a complete assembly ready for installation. It is suited for residential and light commercial zoning applications where repeatable, motorized airflow control is required.

This damper is installed within rectangular supply or return duct runs where zone balancing or airflow restriction is needed. It is commonly used in multi-zone HVAC systems, new construction duct installations, and retrofit zoning projects. The 30 x 10 inch duct opening size makes it appropriate for medium-capacity branch runs serving individual zones or larger rooms. Licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors typically handle installation as part of a broader zoning system layout.

Key Features

• 30 x 10 inch rectangular damper opening for standard medium-capacity duct runs
• Integrated electric actuator eliminates need for a separate motor assembly
• Electronic control enables modulating or two-position airflow management
• Complete factory assembly reduces field labor at installation
• Sturdy construction at 11.336 pounds for durable in-duct service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style electronic balancing damper for installation in rectangular forced-air duct systems requiring motorized airflow control.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal contractor. Shut down the air handler and disconnect power to the system before cutting into ductwork or wiring the actuator. Secure the damper into the duct opening according to the manufacturer instructions and confirm the blade moves freely before completing low-voltage control wiring. Follow NEC requirements for any control wiring routed within the mechanical system.
