Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) AM-161 Damper Linkage Kit
The Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) AM-161 Damper Linkage Kit is a professional-grade assembly engineered for precise HVAC damper control in commercial and industrial air handling units. This comprehensive damper hardware set is designed to convert rotational actuator movement into linear or localized damper blade positioning, ensuring accurate airflow modulation and optimal system performance. The kit is built with heavy-duty steel components to withstand the mechanical stresses of high-cycle commercial HVAC systems.
The AM-161 configuration includes an AM-113 1/2-inch damper crank arm, an AM-116 splined actuator crank, and two AM-132 ball joint connectors. The inclusion of the AM-301 mounting bracket distinguishes this kit from the AM-161-1 variant, providing a stable foundation for the linkage to operate without slippage or mechanical binding. This damper linkage assembly is essential for technicians performing actuator replacements or damper system maintenance where precision-machined linkage is required to maintain calibrated stroke alignment.
- Universal Application: Compatible with various 1/2-inch damper shafts and Schneider Electric electric actuators.
- Industrial Durability: Engineered with high-strength materials to prevent linkage arm failure under constant torque.
- Precision Control: Features adjustable ball joints and splined connections to eliminate slop and improve HVAC damper positioning accuracy.
- Ease of Installation: Pre-calculated component compatibility reduces downtime during field replacements and system upgrades.
Common Questions
What is the difference between the AM-161 and the AM-161-1?
The AM-161 includes the AM-301 mounting bracket, whereas the AM-161-1 is the linkage assembly components only, designed for use on existing brackets.
Does this kit include the damper rod?
No, the AM-161 consists of the crank arms, ball joints, and bracket. The 5/16-inch damper rod (such as the AM-125) must be sourced separately depending on the length required for your specific installation.
Which actuators are compatible with this linkage kit?
This kit is primarily designed for Barber Colman and Schneider Electric electric actuators, specifically those requiring a splined crank arm for 180-degree or 90-degree rotational output.
