Research Products 6817 Zone Damper 8x20 in 24V Synchronous

Product Description

The RESEARCH PRODUCTS 6817 is a rectangular zone damper designed for zoned HVAC air distribution in residential and light commercial duct systems. Operating on 24 volts with a synchronous motor and a 2-wire electrical connection, it mounts at the bottom of the duct section using a bottom-mount comfort configuration. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in typical ductwork environments. At 8 inches high by 20 inches wide, this damper suits a range of trunk and branch duct applications. Licensed HVAC technicians install this type of component as part of multi-zone forced-air systems where individual space temperature control is required.

This damper is suited for residential zoning projects and light commercial HVAC applications where rectangular duct dampers are specified. The bottom-mount design accommodates installations where access or duct geometry requires mounting from the lower face of the duct. Its 24-volt synchronous motor integrates with standard low-voltage zone control boards and thermostats commonly found in residential and small commercial zoning systems.

Key Features

• 24-volt synchronous motor compatible with standard low-voltage zoning controls
• 2-wire electrical connection simplifies field wiring
• Rectangular form factor at 8 inches high by 20 inches wide
• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in ductwork
• Bottom-mount comfort configuration for flexible installation positioning

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for rectangular duct zoning systems in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Shut down the air handler and de-energize the low-voltage control circuit before installing or replacing a zone damper. Verify duct dimensions match the damper size before mounting, and confirm the zone controller supports a 2-wire synchronous motor configuration. Follow local mechanical codes and manufacturer wiring diagrams when connecting to the zone control board.
