Aprilaire 8028 is a Damper Power Distribution Panel that works with Aprilaire Dampers to control airflow in HVAC systems. It features two zones, each with a 5-amp fuse and the capacity to power up to 10 dampers. The panel can be used in various configurations, including single-zone systems with up to 10 dampers, two-zone systems with up to 10 dampers in each zone, and single-zone systems with more than 10 dampers (using Diagram 3 in the manual). The panel also includes LED indicators to show when power is applied to each zone.

SPECIFICATIONS
SWITCH SETTINGS AND LED’S
Set to SINGLE SUPPLY when used:
• in a two zone system when there are no more than 10 dampers in either ZONE A or ZONE B.
Size the transformer for the zone with the most dampers.
• when there are no more than 10 total dampers wired to ZONE A plus ZONE B. Size the transformer
for the total number of dampers connected to both zones.
When set to SINGLE SUPPLY, wire transformer to “POWER A” terminals. Refer to Diagram 2 on the
back for wiring.
Set to SEPARATE SUPPLIES for all other applications. Wire transformers to “POWER A” and “POWER B”
terminals. Refer to Diagram 1 on the back.
