The Belimo GMB24-IP is a high-torque non-spring-return damper actuator delivering 360 in-lb [40 Nm] of torque with communicating BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP and Belimo Cloud control on AC/DC 24 V power. It direct-couples to round or square damper shafts up to 1.05 in. with a universal clamp and holds its last position on loss of power (non-fail-safe, no spring return), making it a member of the GMB platform for large commercial HVAC dampers.
Specifications sourced from the official Belimo GMB24-IP technical data sheet (rev 2025-10-06).
Overview
Belimo GM-Series actuators are high-torque non-spring-return drives for the largest commercial HVAC control 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 GMB24-IP produces 360 in-lb [40 Nm] and mounts directly to round or square damper shafts up to 1.05 in. with its universal clamp (a crank arm and brackets are available for jackshaft and linkage applications); manual positioning uses an external push button. It is controlled over BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP or the Belimo Cloud via RJ45, with a 2-10 VDC hybrid local-control option.
Best for
- IP / BACnet networked large-damper control
- Belimo Cloud monitoring
- High-torque non-spring-return applications
Key Features
High 360 in-lb Torque
Belimo's largest non-spring-return class — drives big commercial and industrial dampers, direct-coupling to round or square damper shafts up to 1.05 in..
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 where fail-safe is not required.
Native IP Communication
BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP and Belimo Cloud over RJ45, with an integrated web server.
Push-Button Manual Override
An external push button declutches the gear train so you can position the damper by hand for setup or service.
cULus Listed
Double-insulated (Class 2), cULus listed and ISO 9001 built for long, maintenance-free service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Belimo GMB24-IP?
The Belimo GMB24-IP is a high-torque non-spring-return (non-fail-safe) damper actuator for large commercial HVAC. It produces 360 in-lb [40 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 2.
Is the GMB24-IP a spring-return (fail-safe) actuator?
No. The GMB24-IP is non-spring-return: on power loss it holds its last position rather than driving to a fail-safe position. For fail-safe operation choose a spring-return Belimo actuator (such as the EF-Series) instead.
How much torque does the GMB24-IP provide?
It delivers 360 in-lb [40 Nm] of torque — Belimo's largest non-spring-return class, sized for big commercial and industrial dampers.
What shaft sizes does the GMB24-IP fit?
It direct-couples to round or square damper shafts up to 1.05 in. using its universal clamp (K-GM20). For jackshafts or off-shaft mounting, a crank arm and brackets (ZG-JSA-1, ZG-GMA) are available.
What control signal does the GMB24-IP use?
It uses communicating control over BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP and the Belimo Cloud. It connects via RJ45 with an integrated web server.
How do you manually position the GMB24-IP?
Press the external manual-override push button to declutch the gear train, then turn the damper by hand for setup or service.
Is the Belimo GMB24-IP available from an authorized Belimo distributor?
Yes. ZOT Supply is an authorized Belimo distributor and carries the GMB24-IP. Every unit ships factory new with Belimo's full 5-year warranty and application support.
