Multi Products 1868E Actuator

The Multi Products 1868E Actuator is a high-performance 115V AC damper motor designed specifically for the rigorous demands of commercial and industrial HVAC systems. Operating at a reliable 2 RPM and delivering a substantial 65 in-lb stall torque, this clockwise (CW) rotation actuator ensures precise control for dampers and ventilation louvers. Built with a rugged, dust-proof zinc die-cast housing and a heavy-duty metal geartrain, the 1868E is an ideal OEM replacement actuator motor for technicians requiring a drop-in solution with low back-gear torque for spring return functionality.

Engineered for long-term field reliability, this UL-recognized motor features an impedance-protected coil and standardized Type A shaft diameter for broad compatibility. Whether you are performing a damper motor replacement or upgrading a ventilation control system, the 1868E provides the consistent 0.36A draw needed for stable electrical integration. As a veteran-preferred component in the HVAC/R controls sector, this 120VAC 60Hz unit stands up to harsh operational environments where plastic-housed alternatives frequently fail.

• Heavy-Duty Construction: Zinc die-cast housing provides superior protection against dust and mechanical impact compared to standard actuators.
• High Torque Output: Rated at 65 in-lb stall torque to handle heavy damper blades and high-pressure airflow conditions without slippage.
• Precision Performance: Sustains a consistent 2 RPM speed under load, ensuring predictable timing for industrial ventilation cycles.
• Reliable Gear Design: All-metal geartrain minimizes back-gear torque, making it highly effective for spring-return damper applications.
• Ease of Installation: Standard Type A shaft and compact footprint allow for rapid field replacement in existing HVAC frameworks.

What is the correct rotation for the 1868E actuator?
The Multi Products 1868E is specifically designed for clockwise (CW) rotation. Always verify your damper linkage requirements before installation to ensure proper directional flow control.

Is this motor compatible with 120V systems?
Yes, while labeled as a 115V actuator, it is rated for standard 120VAC 60Hz operation with a stall current of 0.36 Amps, making it compatible with most North American commercial power supplies.

Can this be used in spring-return applications?
The 1868E features a gear design specifically optimized for low back-gear torque, which allows it to function effectively in many spring-return configurations where the motor must allow the spring to reset the damper during power loss.
