Sized at 16 by 12 inches, this unit ships with a Belimo actuator that operates on a 3-wire control circuit and opens or closes in approximately 35 seconds. Zone dampers like the RM-1612 regulate conditioned airflow to individual zones, allowing independent temperature control room by room. Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician as part of a multi-zone duct system. The Belimo actuator is a recognized name in HVAC actuation and provides reliable, repeatable blade positioning across a wide range of duty cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RM-1612 is suited for rectangular duct runs in residential split systems and light commercial applications where zoning control is required. The 16 by 12 inch opening accommodates a common duct size found in trunk-and-branch and radial duct layouts. This damper is compatible with 3-wire zone control boards and thermostats that provide a 24-volt open and close signal, making it a practical fit for standard residential zoning panels. Installers specify this damper when replacing a failed unit in an existing Rheem-compatible zoning setup or when adding zones to an existing system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16 by 12 inch rectangular damper body sized for common residential duct openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated Belimo actuator with a 35-second open and close cycle time\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-wire control wiring compatible with standard 24-volt zone control boards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackage dimensions of 13 inches wide by 23 inches tall by 8 inches deep allow for straightforward storage and staging on the job\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnit weight of 7.73 pounds keeps handling manageable during overhead duct installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement zone damper for Rheem rectangular duct zoning applications.

Shut down the air handler and de-energize the control board at the disconnect before beginning installation. The 3-wire actuator wiring should be connected according to the zone panel manufacturer wiring diagram. Verify airflow direction markings on the damper body before securing to the duct to ensure proper blade operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDamper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 x 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuator Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Belimo 3-wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuator Cycle Time\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 seconds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.73 pounds\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: IO HVAC CONTROLS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: RM-1612\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IO HVAC CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67948546588978,"sku":"RM-1612","price":284.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/745ecffd07cbe47f75f5847deb081dca_b9ec3686-1dd5-482d-ad73-37bebe0c9aa4.jpg?v=1791666611","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/io-hvac-controls-rm-1612-rectangular-zone-damper-16x12","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
