PRECAUTIONS
Do not exceed the specification ratings.
CAUTION
!
All wiring must conform to local and national electrical
codes and ordinances.
To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment
damage, disconnect electric power to system, at
main fuse or circuit breaker box, until installation
is complete.
This control is a precision instrument, and should be
handled carefully. Rough handling or distorting compo-
nents could cause the control to malfunction.

injury and/or property damage.
WARNING
!
Do not use on circuits exceeding 30 volts. Higher
voltage will damage control and could cause
shock or fire hazard.

anticipator.
Electrical Ratings: The Damper Motor draws .2 Amp
Max. at 25 VAC when in the open position.
Auxiliary Contacts: Do not exceed 2.0 Amp at 25
VAC (terminals 2 and 3).
Timings: From full close to full open - Approximately
45 seconds
From full open to full close - Approximately
60 seconds.
Maximum Duct Size: 300 square inches
NOTE
Maximum Duct Capacity: 1200 cubic feet per
minute.
The Damper Motor draws more than .2 Amp while it
is opening. For this reason, do not use more than the
recommended number of damper motors per trans-
former as shown on page 4.

For best connections, use #18 Thermostat wire. #16 will
also work satisfactorily.
WIRING
All wiring must conform to local and national electri-
cal codes.
Make connections to screw terminals according to wiring
diagram.
NOTE
To check motor operation without thermostat connected,
jumper 2 to 4 to open motor. Remove jumper to close
motor.
The WR S81-0125 Transformer (40 VA) will handle up to
4 damper motors. The WR S81-0126 (20VA) will handle
up to 2 damper motors.

2. Turn thermostat to lowest setting. Damper vane for
that zone will close and furnace burner will shut off as
auxiliary circuit is broken on damper motor.
CHECKING THE SYSTEM
Turn on the electricity. If gas fired, be sure pilot is lit. Then
check each zone separately as follows:
1. Turn thermostat to highest setting. Damper vane for
that zone will open and furnace burner will come on as
auxiliary circuit is made on damper motor.

OPERATION
MANUAL OPERATION
To change damper vane from closed to open position:
Loosen wing nuts and pull damper motor back from
duct a short distance. Rotate indicator wheel 90° in
either direction so that yoke on damper motor drops
into the two round holes on indicator wheel. Then
retighten wing nuts.
The position of the damper vane can always be
determined by looking at the indicator wheel. If the
word “open” is visible, the vane is open. If the word
“closed” is visible, the vane is closed.
Observe the following instructions in the event it is neces-
sary to change the damper vanes from closed to open
position. For example, if the cooling system is not zoned
but does use the same duct work as the heating system,
the damper vanes should be changed from the closed
position to the open position at the start of the cooling
season.

Be sure to change the vanes back to the open
position at the start of the heating season.

BYPASS DAMPER
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
DESCRIPTION
This bypass damper was designed for use with zoned The bypass damper, operating by means of air pressure,
warm air heating and air conditioning systems. It is permits any excess volume of air to pass directly to the
installed in a connecting duct between the furnace ple- cold air return, avoiding an increased air velocity through
num or the supply duct and the cold air return duct.
theremainingopenductswhichwouldresultindiscomfort
to the occupants of that zone.
Its purpose is to control and compensate for excess
volume and velocity of the air due to the closing of the
dampers leading to some of the zones.
INSTALLATION
All parts needed for the bypass damper are provided If several zones are not calling for heat, the bypass
except the damper vane. The vane should be cut from a dampershouldbepartiallyopen;ifonlyonezoneiscalling
piece of sheet metal to the proper size to fit the duct.
for heat, the bypass damper should be open.
The bypass duct should be properly sized. It should be
designed to handle at least the same amount of air as the
supply duct, less that required by the smallest zone.
NOTE
See the layout for zoned warm air system on page 2 for
additional information.
The damper located in the bypass duct has a counter-
weighted arm. It operates through the pressure of the air
as opposed to the torque of the weighted arm. Adjust the
counterweight so that with all zones calling for heat, the
fan in operation, and all ducts open, the bypass damper
is in the closed position.
