It uses a 24-volt motor to open and close the blades, directing conditioned air to specific zones as commanded by a zoning controller. This damper operates as a power-close, spring-open unit, meaning it fails to the open position when power is removed. That normally-open fail-safe behavior is critical for maintaining airflow in the event of a power interruption. HVAC technicians install this damper as part of a zoned forced-air system to balance comfort and efficiency across multiple areas of a building.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis damper is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air zoning applications. It is typically installed in rectangular ductwork where zone-by-zone airflow control is required. The supplier indicates it is commonly used with TrueZONE electronic zoning systems and other compatible electronic zoning controllers. The 24-volt motor is compatible with standard low-voltage zoning control wiring, making integration into existing zone control panels straightforward for experienced HVAC technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePower-close, spring-open operation provides normally-open fail-safe behavior on power loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24-volt motor integrates directly with standard low-voltage zoning control systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eParallel blade design suits rectangular duct installations for zone airflow control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNominal duct opening size of 16 inches by 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with TrueZONE and other electronic zoning systems per supplier documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with TrueZONE electronic zoning systems and other low-voltage electronic zone control panels.

Disconnect power to the air handler and zoning panel before wiring the damper motor. Refer to the zoning controller manufacturer wiring diagram for proper terminal connections. Ensure the damper is installed with adequate clearance for blade travel and that sheet metal screws or equivalent fasteners secure the unit to the duct collar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDamper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 inches x 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Voltage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperation Mode\u003c\/strong\u003e: Power close, spring open (normally open)\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: RESIDEO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: zd16x18tz\/u\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RESIDEO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467740217650,"sku":"ZD16X18TZ\/U","price":277.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313945711.jpg?v=1783912111","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/resideo-zd16x18tz-u-parallel-blade-damper-16x18-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
