Ruskin AMS Series Assembly, Installation And Operation Instructions

www.ruskin.com
Ruskin's AMS series are the most versatile pressure
transducers
on
the
market
pressure ranges and selectable voltage or current
output to satisfy the most demanding air measure-
ment applications. Switch selectable fast or slow
response time provides the ability to smooth out
velocity pressure measurements that are the result
of less than ideal installation locations and turbulent
air flows.
The LCD display shows the actual velocity pressure
independent of the output pressure range selected.
This makes it extremely easy for the installing tech-
nician to know what pressure range to use for each
application. With the maximum air flow passing
through the air measurement station just look at the
displayed value and select the lowest range that
includes the pressure. It's that easy! By selecting
the correct pressure range, the electrical output can
be scaled for the greatest measurement resolution
and corresponding air flow control.
At a glance troubleshooting can save hours of work.
The three LEDS on the face of the AMS series
low-pressure transducer, above the display, indi-
cate when the velocity pressure being measured is
"Out of Range Low" (or negative), "Out of Range
High" or operating as expected when the "In
Range" LED is illuminated.

SWITCH SETUP - OUTPUTS, RANGES, UNITS/RESPONSE

Do not have power applied to unit when changing settings. After changing settings, apply power and Auto-Zero the unit in its
Field Selectable Ranges (inches water column)
Model AMS8100LR: 0-0.1", 0-0.25", 0-0.50", 0-0.75", 0.1.0"
Model AMS8100:
0-0.1", 0-0.25", 0-0.50", 0-1.0", 0-2.5"

orientation of operation.
2. Select RANGE
If unit is ordered with a Custom Range,
then the switch must be set to R6.
3. Choose DIRECTION
Bidirectional is a plus/minus range so
choosing 5" range is -5" to +5" Bidirectional
and 0" to +5" Unidirectional
4. Choose UNITS - Inches WC or PASCALS
5. Choose RESPONSE TIME
Fast Response = 1/2 second
Slow Response = 4 seconds
6. Mount, Terminate and Auto-Zero the unit
as described in later sections. Attach
the deadhead tubing to the ports during
Auto-Zeroing
