 series more than one section high will be 

shipped separately in individual sleeves . Using the provided 
RJ-45 cable connect the bottom probe on the top section to 
the top probe on the bottom section . The bottom section has 
the transmitter mounted to it .

Do not twist 
or bow . Mount 
damper plumb  
in the opening .

Installation - 

Failure to follow instructions will 

void all warranties

1 .  Ensure the AMD-XX-TD series dampers is mounted 

with measurement probes upstream of the damper .

2 .  Your duct opening or opening square should measure 

1/4 inch (6mm) larger than damper dimension and 

should be straight and level .

3 .  Use shims between damper frame and duct opening 

or opening space to prevent distortion of frame by 

fasteners holding it in place . Brace at every horizontal 

mullion and vertically brace at every 8 feet (2 .4m) of 

damper width for strength . Dampers in high velocity 

(2000 fpm [610m per second]) may require more 

bracing .

    NOTE: Greenheck dampers are specifically designed 

and engineered for structural integrity based on model 

and conditions . Attachment, framing, mating flanges, 

and anchoring of damper assemblies into openings, 

ductwork, or walls is the responsibility of the installer . 

Design calculations for these retaining and supporting 

members should be determined by field engineers for 

that particular installation .

4 . Individual damper sections, as well as entire multiple 

section assemblies must be completely square and 

free from racking, twisting, or bending . Measure 

diagonally from upper corners to opposite lower 

corners of each section .

5 . Damper blades, axles, and linkage must operate 

without binding . Before system operation, you can 

cycle dampers after installation to assure proper 

operation . On multiple section assemblies all sections 

should open and close simultaneously .

Setup and Operation for AMD-xx-TD 

Series Damper

All AMD-xx-TD’s are supplied with a Vari-Green® 
airflow rate transmitter that is factory wired to one or 
more Vari-Green airflow measurement probe(s) . The 
transmitter has been configured at the factory with 
customer supplied parameters . For normal applications 
the transmitter’s configuration should not need to be 
modified in the field . However, if field configuration is 
necessary please reference the Vari-Green transmitter 
Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Manual 
available at

 

www.greenheck.com.

Once electrical power is applied, the transmitter will 
go through a standard start-up sequence during which 
it will identify and enable each airflow sensor . This will 
take approximately 25 seconds . Once the start-up 
sequence has been complete, the transmitter’s display 
will show the measured volumetric airflow rate, velocity, 
and ambient air temperature (see below) . Under normal 
operation, a blinking green dot in the upper right corner 
of the display signifies that the processor is functioning 
correctly, and two flashing arrows indicate that the 
sensor(s) and transmitter are communicating normally .

You can order AMD-xx-TD’s with or without a factory 
supplied controller . When a factory supplied controller 
is ordered, the controller can be configured for either 
analog operation or operation via a BACnet MS/TP 
connection . Setup and operation for these different 
options are described on the following pages .
