Specifications -Installation and Operating Instructions
he Series PAFS-1000 Averaging Flow Sensor from Dwyer Instruments, Inc. is
T
deal for sensing differential pressure in the inlet section of variable air volume
i
erminal units and fan terminal units. Units can also be used to sense differential
t
pressure at other locations in the main or branch duct systems.
The “H” port senses total pressure and the “L” port senses static pressure. The
difference between these signals is the differential, or velocity pressure.
odels offer up to ten sensing points and lengths of 3-5/32˝ to 23-29/32˝ (8.02 to
M
0.72 cm) to accommodate box sizes of 4˝ to 30˝ (10.16 to 76.20 cm).

INSTALLATION
The Series PAFS-1000 utilizes 1/4˝ ID, 3/8˝ OD tubing. First check that there are
no sharp bends in the tubing at any connection. Bends and creases may leak over
time as the tubing ages.
Connect the “H” Port to the high input on the differential pressure gage, transmitter,
or switch.
Connect the “L” Port to the low input on the differential pressure gage, transmitter,
or switch.

MOUNTING DETAILS
Bulletin PAFS-1000
It may be necessary to calibrate in order to insure an accurate measurement.
You can do this by completing a traverse of the duct or fan to determine the delta
P sensed by the PAFS vs. the actual flow.
MOUNTING
1. Install the unit horizontally to assure accurate velocity readings for units ranging
from 3-5/32˝ to 9-29/32˝. If using a unit longer than the PAFS-1005, which is 929/32˝, vertical mounting is recommended.
2. Determine the duct’s flow direction and install the Series PAFS-1000 based on
the unit’s flow arrow imprint.
3. Cut a 7/8˝ hole in the ducting to accept the unit.
4. Attach using two self-tapping screws inserted in the 3/16˝ mounting holes.

MAINTENANCE
Sensing orifices must be kept free of dust accumulation or debris. Occasional
cleaning may be required.
Upon final installation of the Series PAFS-1000 Averaging Flow Sensor, no routine
maintenance is required. A periodic check of system calibration is recommended.
The Series PAFS-1000 is not field serviceable and should be returned if repair is
needed (field repair should not be attempted and may void warranty). Be sure to
include a brief description of the problem plus any relevant application notes.
Contact customer service to receive a return goods authorization number before
shipping.
