Io Hvac Controls RM-1606-BM Rectangular Zone Damper 16x6

Product Description

The IO HVAC CONTROLS RM-1606-BM is a rectangular zone damper designed for use in residential and light commercial forced-air zoning systems. It ships with a 35-second Belimo actuator wired in a 3-wire configuration, giving the system controller direct open and close command authority. The bottom-mount design positions the actuator on the underside of the duct for clearance in tight installations. At 6.7 pounds, this is a solid, duct-ready assembly built for HVAC technicians who need a reliable, drop-in zone control solution.

This damper is sized at 16 by 6 inches to fit standard rectangular duct openings of that dimension. It is suited for residential zoning applications where individual rooms or zones require independent airflow control. The bottom-mount actuator configuration is common in horizontal duct runs where top or side access is obstructed. HVAC technicians typically integrate this damper into a zoning control panel that sequences multiple zones based on thermostat demand.

Key Features

• 16 by 6 inch rectangular damper sized for standard duct openings
• Bottom-mount actuator placement for clearance in confined horizontal runs
• Includes 35-second Belimo actuator for reliable, repeatable positioning
• 3-wire actuator wiring supports open, close, and common connections for zone controller compatibility
• Factory-assembled unit reduces field assembly time

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation zone damper for rectangular duct systems requiring a 16 by 6 inch opening with a bottom-mount actuator configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Shut down the air handler and disconnect power to the zoning control panel before wiring or mounting the damper. Secure the damper to the duct using sheet metal screws and seal connections with approved foil tape or mastic to prevent air bypass. Verify actuator wiring matches the zone controller terminals before restoring power.
