Io Hvac Controls MD-1612 Zone Damper 16x12 in 2 Position

Product Description

The IO HVAC CONTROLS MD-1612 is a rectangular 2-position zone damper rated for 16 inches by 12 inches duct openings and equipped with a Belimo 3-wire actuator. Zone dampers control airflow to individual zones in a zoned HVAC system, opening and closing on demand from a zone controller or thermostat. The 2-position actuator drives the blade fully open or fully closed, providing reliable on/off airflow control rather than modulating flow. At 8 pounds, the unit is sized for standard residential and light commercial duct systems where precise multi-zone comfort control is required. Licensed HVAC technicians are the typical installers for this component.

This damper is designed for installation in rectangular sheet-metal ductwork as part of a zoned forced-air system. Typical applications include residential multi-zone systems where independent room or area temperature control is needed. The MD-1612 fits 16-inch by 12-inch rectangular duct openings and is compatible with 3-wire zone control wiring schemes standard to Belimo actuator-equipped dampers. It is suited for both new-construction zoning installations and retrofit applications where an existing system is being converted to zone control.

Key Features

• 16 inches by 12 inches rectangular form factor fits standard duct openings of that size
• 2-position operation - fully open or fully closed for reliable zone airflow control
• Belimo 3-wire actuator provides industry-standard wiring compatibility with zone control boards
• Sturdy construction at 8 pounds supports secure in-duct mounting
• Suited for residential and light commercial multi-zone forced-air HVAC systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style zone damper for 16-inch by 12-inch rectangular duct systems using Belimo 3-wire actuator wiring. Consult your zone controller documentation to confirm 3-wire actuator compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician familiar with zoned forced-air systems. Power down the air handler and zone control panel before wiring or mounting the damper. The damper must be secured to the ductwork with sheet-metal screws and sealed appropriately to prevent air bypass. Verify actuator wiring matches the zone control board terminals before restoring power.
