Schneider Electric 8751007000 MD5B-24 Damper Actuator 5Nm

8751007000: MD5B-24 electric damper actuator, 5 N.m

The 8751007000 is a Schneider Electric rotary electric actuator for air dampers, rated 5 N.m, with 2-position (on/off) control, non-spring return and a supply of 24 V AC. The datasheet lists a 1 m lead and an IP54 rating, and the actuator model is MD5B-24. Seven Star LLC supplies it as an independent supplier in Oman and the GCC for HVAC contractors, BMS integrators and facility teams.

The MD5B-24 is the same 5 N.m two-position actuator, but this variant lists two SPDT switches and a 24 V AC supply. The switches let a BMS confirm the end positions instead of relying on run time. The datasheet title and the actuator model are the only available decoding: the MD series number gives the torque, with B for two-position and A for modulating control, a reading taken from the product titles, not from an ordering table.

Typical uses of the 8751007000 in Oman and the GCC

Damper actuators of this class operate fresh-air, return-air and mixing dampers in air-handling units, fan-coil plenums and ventilation ducts in commercial buildings, hospitals, hotels and plant buildings. Two-position control is used for isolation and simple open/closed dampers. Operating air temperatures up to 50 °C and humidity up to 95 % non-condensing cover typical plant-room conditions in the region.

For sites with fine desert dust, keep the actuator out of direct airstreams where possible and inspect the shaft coupling at each filter change. High summer temperatures inside rooftop air-handling casings can approach the 50 °C operating limit, so check the real casing temperature before committing.

Technical specifications of the 8751007000

How the 8751007000 drives a damper

The actuator mounts directly on the damper shaft and turns it through a stroke of 95 degrees, limited by an adjustable end stop. Stroke running time is 150 s, so the damper takes a couple of minutes to travel from end to end, which is slow enough to avoid air-pressure shocks in ductwork.

Control is on/off: power applied drives the damper to one position and removing or reversing it drives the other. Power consumption is 1 W while moving and 0.2 W when holding, with a transformer rating of 1.5 VA. This is a Class III insulated device, meant for extra-low-voltage supplies only.

Selection checklist for the 8751007000

• Torque: damper requirement from the damper maker must be at or below 5 N.m with margin.
• Control signal: 2-position (on/off); match the controller output.
• Failure position: non-spring return.
• Supply: 24 V AC, with a transformer rated for at least 1.5 VA per actuator.
• Shaft: confirm damper shaft size against the actuator clamp before ordering.
• Environment: IP54 and -30 to 50 °C operation; indoor or sheltered locations only.

Return behaviour and failure position of the 8751007000

This actuator is non-spring return: on loss of supply the damper stays where it was. That suits comfort ventilation and mixing dampers where the last position is acceptable, but it is wrong for fire or freeze protection duties, where the LF24 spring-return reference 8740003000 is the closer fit.

If a safe position is required on power failure, add a separate spring-return damper or a different actuator rather than relying on this unit. The position indicator is a visual indicator with a position ring, which helps a technician see the state without opening the ceiling void.

Comparison of the 8751007000 with sibling actuators

The two 5 N.m two-position references differ in that one lists two SPDT switches and a 24 V AC supply. Always compare supply type and signal before treating two similar-looking actuators as interchangeable.

Installation and commissioning of the 8751007000

Fit the actuator on the damper shaft, set the end stop or mechanical limits, and wire the 1 m lead to the control panel through a suitably rated 24 V supply. Never connect mains voltage to this device. Dress the cable so that condensation cannot run along it into the housing.

Cycle the damper by hand or by control, watch the full travel for binding, and record the running time. Replace an actuator that struggles to reach end position instead of raising its supply. Keep spare units of this unit for critical dampers, because a seized damper often shows up only during a hot-weather commissioning test.

When several actuators share one 24 V transformer, add up the VA ratings, not the watts, and leave headroom for simultaneous starting. Label each lead with its damper tag at the panel end so that a technician can trace a fault from the controller to the shaft without opening ductwork. A wiring check before first power saves the most time: confirm polarity or phase assignment against the controller documentation, because a reversed connection will simply drive the damper the wrong way.
