Multi Products 5985 Actuator

The Multi Products 5985 Actuator is a heavy-duty 120V HVAC damper motor designed for high-torque motion control in demanding commercial and industrial environments. This UL14-certified gearmotor provides reliable counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation and features a durable Type A round shaft, making it the direct functional replacement for the Multi Products 2985 actuator. Built with a rugged zinc die-cast housing, the 5985 model is engineered to handle the stall-type demands of VAV systems, mixing boxes, and exhaust dampers where consistent performance is mission-critical.

For technicians and contractors, the 120V CCW actuator offers seamless integration into existing 120V control circuits. Its 2 RPM output speed and stall-tolerant design ensure that dampers reach their intended position without overheating or mechanical failure. When sourcing a Multi Products gearmotor replacement, the 5985 provides the exact footprint and electrical specifications required to restore airflow efficiency in agricultural, commercial, and HVACR ventilation setups.

• Direct Legacy Replacement: Engineered to replace the obsolete Multi Products 2985 without requiring mounting modifications.
• Voltage Specificity: Optimized for 120V systems, ensuring compatibility with standard building automation and line-voltage controls.
• Type A Shaft Design: Standard 1-1/8 inch Type A round shaft fits a wide variety of universal lever arms and damper linkages.
• Industrial Durability: Dust-proof housing protects the internal gearing in harsh environments like mechanical rooms or greenhouses.
• Safety Compliance: UL14 recognized component meeting rigorous safety standards for electric actuators.

Is the 5985 a drop-in replacement for the 2985?
Yes. The 5985 is the current Multi Products specification designated to replace the decommissioned 2985 model, maintaining the same 120V CCW performance and Type A shaft dimensions.

How do I verify this is the correct actuator for my damper?
Check the SPEC number stamped on your current motor housing. If it lists UL14 and requires counter-clockwise rotation with a round shaft extension, the 5985 is the standard professional choice.

What applications are best suited for this 120V actuator?
It is primarily utilized in HVACR damper control, VAV boxes, and specialized industrial machinery requiring slow-speed, high-torque actuation.
