Johnson Controls D-3246-5110 Pneumatic Actuator 8-13 PSI For VF series
Specifications
- Pressure Range: 8-13 PSI
- Actuation Type: Pneumatic
- Weight: 18.17lbs
Loyalty ProgramProduct Overview:
Positions the valve disc in Johnson Controls VF Series butterfly valves in response to a pneumatic control signal. The Johnson Controls D-3246-5110 is an OEM pneumatic actuator with an 8–13 psig spring range, designed to convert changes in control-air pressure into mechanical movement at the connected valve. This operation supports controlled fluid flow through HVAC piping systems by adjusting the butterfly valve's position according to the pneumatic control demand.
Pressure Control:
Converts pneumatic pressure of 8–13 PSI into mechanical movement through the actuator's internal pressure-responsive mechanism. This movement drives the connected VF Series butterfly valve in response to changes in the pneumatic control signal.
Valve Position:
Provides actuator movement to the connected butterfly valve to adjust its opening and regulate fluid flow. As pneumatic pressure changes, the actuator moves the valve to adjust flow through the connected system.
Replacement Guidelines:
Replace the Johnson Controls D-3246-5110 Pneumatic Actuator when inspection and functional testing confirm that it can no longer position the connected valve reliably. Replacement may be necessary if the actuator fails to respond to pneumatic pressure changes, cannot complete its required movement, or has a damaged diaphragm, housing, or air connection. Have a qualified HVAC controls technician inspect the actuator and valve assembly and handle pneumatic testing and replacement.
Common Failure Symptoms:
Equipment Compatibility:
The Johnson Controls D-3246-5110 is an OEM D-3246 Series pneumatic actuator designed for VF Series butterfly valves. The manufacturer's selection chart identifies its applications with 5-inch high-pressure valves, 6-inch high- or low-pressure valves, and 8- or 10-inch low-pressure valves. Confirm the valve size, pressure configuration, mounting arrangement, and required actuator action against the equipment documentation before installation.
