Abstract
An actuator housing provides a low-cost method of achieving electrical connection to the motor terminals of a DC motor in a two position HVAC actuator. The connector configuration interfacing with a controller or power supply is easily changed by making the connector a modular connector, providing an effective fluid ingress prevention. The modular connector design is fixed from the connector flange inward into a housing, and is flexible outward with respect to its pin configuration and shroud shape. This design allows different connector configurations to be utilized with minimal tooling investment. A capacitor can also be inserted and crimped to the connector pin stampings, prior to being over-molded, to provide EMI filtering.
