Mounting
The MCP-8035-X100/X101 actuators are intended for external duct mounting with linkage
supplied by others. Mount carefully and align the linkage so it will not BIND when the actuator
shaft extends and retracts.
The MCP-8035-X111/X112 actuators are also intended for external duct mounting.
1. Align the bracket’s rear mounting holes parallel to the damper shaft’s center-line at
mid-position.
2. Check that the balljoint is positioned at the factory setting for 90° rotation.
3. Adjust for other rotations (45° or 60°) if needed, by positioning the balljoint as shown by
Dimension B in the table.
4. Check and adjust the distance from the top rear mounting hole to the damper shaft’s
centerline. The distance should equal the value shown by Dimension A in the table.
5 Rotate the damper shaft to the mid-damper position.
6. Position the crankarm vertically:
A. Up for clockwise rotation
B. Down for counter clockwise rotation
7. Tighten the crankarm set screws.
8. Mount firmly on the duct.
