24 Two Wire Actuator
25 Three Wire Actuator
26 Five Wire Actuator
27 Tech Tip Never attempt to operate an actuator once removed from the HVAC housing. If you do, the internal actuator gears will go beyond their designed travel limit. This will render the actuator inoperative. Never attempt to operate an actuator once removed from the HVAC housing. If you do, the internal actuator gears will go beyond their designed travel limit.
