The Belimo AMB24-IP is a non-spring-return damper actuator delivering 180 in-lb [20 Nm] of torque with communicating BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP and Belimo Cloud control on AC/DC 24 V power. It direct-couples to damper shafts up to 1.05 in. diameter and holds its last position on loss of power (it is non-fail-safe, with no spring return), making it a proven member of the AMB platform for commercial HVAC damper control where fail-safe operation is not required.
Specifications sourced from the official Belimo AMB24-IP technical data sheet (rev 2025-12-24).
Overview
Belimo AM-Series actuators are non-spring-return drives for commercial HVAC dampers — they position the damper under power and hold the last commanded position when power is removed (there is no spring-return fail-safe). The AMB24-IP produces 180 in-lb [20 Nm] of torque and mounts directly to the damper shaft. It is controlled over BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP or the Belimo Cloud via an RJ45 connection, with an integrated web server and a 2-10 VDC hybrid local-control option.
Best for
- IP / BACnet networked damper control
- Belimo Cloud monitoring and diagnostics
- Non-spring-return applications
Key Features
Non-Spring-Return Design
Holds the last commanded position when power is removed (non-fail-safe). Lower cost and power draw than a spring-return actuator where fail-safe operation is not required.
180 in-lb Torque
Direct-couples to damper shafts up to 1.05 in. diameter and sizes a wide range of commercial dampers and louvers.
Native IP Communication
BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP and Belimo Cloud over RJ45, with an integrated web server for setup and diagnostics.
cULus Listed & Quiet
Double-insulated (Class 2), cULus listed, ISO 9001 built for long, maintenance-free service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Belimo AMB24-IP?
The Belimo AMB24-IP is a non-spring-return (non-fail-safe) damper actuator for commercial HVAC. It produces 180 in-lb [20 Nm] of torque, uses communicating control over BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP and the Belimo Cloud on AC/DC 24 V power, and holds its last position on loss of power. Its housing is rated NEMA 1.
Is the AMB24-IP a spring-return (fail-safe) actuator?
No. The AMB24-IP is non-spring-return: when power is lost it holds its last commanded position rather than driving to a fail-safe position. If you need the damper to fail to a known open or closed position on power loss, choose a spring-return Belimo AF/AM-Series actuator instead.
What happens to the AMB24-IP when power is lost?
It stays put. A non-spring-return actuator maintains its last position when power is removed and resumes from there when power returns — there is no spring to drive it to a fail-safe position.
What torque does the AMB24-IP provide and what shaft sizes does it fit?
It delivers 180 in-lb [20 Nm] and direct-couples to round or square damper shafts up to 1.05 in. diameter using its universal clamp.
What control signal does the AMB24-IP use?
It uses communicating control over BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP and the Belimo Cloud. It connects via an RJ45 port with an integrated web server, plus a 2-10 VDC hybrid local-control option.
What is the running time of the AMB24-IP?
Motor running time is about 150 s / 90° for 90 degrees of travel.
Is the Belimo AMB24-IP available from an authorized Belimo distributor?
Yes. ZOT Supply is an authorized Belimo distributor and carries the AMB24-IP. Every unit ships factory new with Belimo's full 5-year warranty and application support from our team.
