KMC Controls MCP-8031-2101 Actuator

The KMC Controls MCP-8031-2101 is a high-performance pneumatic damper actuator specifically engineered for regulating airflow in VAV terminals, small dampers, and air terminal units. This heavy-duty metal smoke control damper actuator features a 3-12 psi spring range, providing reliable mechanical movement from pneumatic control signals. Designed with a 1-11/16-inch stroke and an 8 sq. in. effective area, this unit includes a bronze bushing and comes complete with a clevis and cotter pin for secure linkage. Its rugged metal construction ensures compliance with local safety codes for ceiling plenum installations where non-metallic components are prohibited. Tested to meet UL555S standards, the MCP-8031-2101 is suitable for both gradual and two-position applications, even maintaining position in smoke control systems at elevated temperatures. The integrated right-angle mounting bracket allows for flexible installation, as the actuator body can be rotated to orient air connections as needed for your specific ductwork or damper frame configuration.
