The damper operates on a power-closed, spring-open principle, meaning it closes under motor power and returns to the open position when power is removed. The motor runs at 24 VAC at 60 Hz, drawing 6 watts and 12 VA. Built from galvanized steel with bottom mounting, the 6829 measures 23-7\/8 inches wide by 9.813 inches tall and carries a pressure rating of 1 in-WC. Licensed HVAC technicians install this damper as part of a multi-zone forced-air system to control airflow to individual zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 6829 is suited for rectangular duct runs in residential forced-air systems and light commercial applications requiring airflow zoning. The galvanized steel construction handles the temperature and humidity conditions typical of supply and return duct environments. The flexible link design used in residential sizes absorbs minor duct movement without binding the blade assembly. The spring-open fail-safe action keeps airflow available to connected zones if the control signal or power is interrupted, which is an important operational consideration during controller or transformer failures in multi-zone setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePower-closed, spring-open operation provides fail-safe airflow on power loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSynchronous motor rated at 24 VAC, 60 Hz, 6 W, 12 VA for compatibility with standard zone control boards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in duct environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottom mounting configuration for straightforward duct installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 in-WC pressure rating suitable for residential and light commercial duct static pressures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRectangular shape fits standard rectangular duct openings at 23-7\/8 inches wide by 9.813 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation zone damper for rectangular duct zoning applications in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems requiring a 24 VAC synchronous motor-driven damper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician familiar with forced-air zoning systems and low-voltage control wiring. Disconnect power to the air handler and zone control panel before installing or replacing a zone damper. Confirm the duct opening dimensions match the damper blade size before securing the unit, and verify the control board output is rated for the motor VA draw. Consult applicable mechanical codes for duct penetration and fastener requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rectangular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23-7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.813 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 in-WC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Voltage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 VAC at 60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Power\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor VA\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 VA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Power Closed, Spring Open, Synchronous\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottom\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: RESEARCH PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6829\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RESEARCH PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138238218546,"sku":"6829","price":209.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305532951.jpg?v=1778251280","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/research-products-6829-rectangular-zone-damper-with-motor","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
