Greystone AFS-222-112, AFS-262-112, AFS-460 Installation Instructions Manual

Application
The AFS is a general purpose airflow proving switch designed for HVAC and energy management applications. It may be used to sense positive, negative or differential air pressure.
General
The plated housing contains a diaphragm, a calibration spring and a snap-acting SPST (NC) switch. The sample connections located on each side of the diaphragm accept a .25” OD tubing via the integral compression and nut or barbed fitting. An enclosure cover guards against accidental contact with the live switch terminal screws and the set point adjusting screw. The enclosure cover will accept a .5” conduit connection. The AFS-460 has a reset button located on the top surface of the enclosure cover.
Mounting
Select a mounting location which is free from vibration. The AFS pressure switch MUST be mounted with the diaphragm in any vertical plane in order to obtain the lowest specified operating set point. Avoid mounting with the sample line connections in the “UP” position. Surface mount via the two 3/16” diameter holes in the integral mounting bracket. The mounting holes are 3 7/8” apart.

Installation Instructions
Air Sampling Connection
The AFS is designed to accept firm-wall sample lines of .25" OD tubing by means of ferrule and nut compression connec­tions. For sample lines of up to 10 feet, .25" OD tubing is ac­ceptable. For lines up to 20 feet, use .25" ID tubing. For lines up to 60 feet, use .5" ID tubing. A .25" OD adapter, suitable for slip-on flexible tubing is available: order part number 18311. Locate the sampling probe a minimum of 1.5 duct diameters downstream from the air source. Install the sampling probe as close to the center of the airstream as possible. Identify the high pressure inlet (H) and the low pressure inlet (L). Select one of the five application options listed below and connect the sample lines as recommended.
Positive Pressure Only: Connect the sample line to inlet H; inlet L remains open to the atmosphere. Negative Pressure Only: Connect the sample line to inlet L; inlet H remains open to the atmosphere. Two Negative Samples: Connect the higher negative sample to inlet L. Connect the lower negative sample to inlet H. Two Positive Samples Connect the higher positive sample to inlet H. Connect the lower positive sample to inlet L. One Positive and One Negative Sample Connect the positive sample to inlet H. Connect the negative sample to inlet L.
Field Adjustment-AFS-262 (-112)
The adjustment range of an AFS-262 Air Switch is 0.05 ±.02" w.c. to 2.0" w.c. To adjust the set point, t urn the adjusting screw counterclockwise until motion has stopped. Next, turn the adjusting screw 4 complete turns in a clockwise direction to engage the spring. From this point, the next ten turns will be used for the actual calibration. Each full turn represents approximately 0.2" w.c. Please note: To properly calibrate an air switch, a digital manometer or other measuring device should be used to confirm the actual set point.
Field Adjustment-AFS-222 (-112)
The adjustment range of an AFS-222 Air Switch is 0.05 ±.02" w.c. to 12.0" w.c. To adjust the set point, t urn the adjusting screw counterclockwise until motion has stopped. Next, turn the adjusting screw 4 complete turns in a clockwise direction to engage the spring. From this point, the next ten turns will be used for the actual calibration. Each full turn represents approximately 1.2" w.c. Please note: To properly calibrate an air switch, a digital manometer or other measuring device should be used to confirm the actual set point.
Field Adjustment-AFS-460
The adjustment range of an AFS-460 Air Switch is 0.4" ± 0.02" w.c. to 12.0" w.c. To adjust the set point, turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise until motion has stopped. Next, turn the adjusting screw four complete turns in a clockwise direction to engage the spring. From this point, the next ten turns will be used for the actual calibration. Each full turn represents approximately 1.16" w.c. Please note: To properly calibrate an air switch, a digital manometer or othermeasuring device should be used to confirm the actual set point.
