Pressure Null Switch (cont'd)
building pressure. It maintains a selected positive or negative pressure setpoint by changing the amount of outside air being introduced to the building through modulating outside air damper. As more pressure is required in the building, the pressure null switch activates the damper motor driving the outside air damper towards the full open position (causing the bypass return air damper to go toward the closed posi- tion). Conversely, as less pressure is required, the switch drives the outside air damper in the opposite direction.
Service: Clean the tubing and the screened ends of the pressure tap vents. Be sure that the switch is installed with the diaphragm in a vertical plane and that the pressure taps are sheltered from the wind. For further service, follow the manufacturer's instructions included with the switch.
Photohelic Pressure Switch (automatic building pressure sensor)
Description/Function: The photohelic pressure switch is a phototransister relay operated positive pressure switch used in makeup air applications to automatically control building pressure. It maintains a selected positive pressure setpoint by changing the amount of outside air being introduced to the
building through a modulating outside air damper. As more pressure is required in the building, the switch activates the damper motor driving the outside air damper towards the full open position (causing the bypass return air damper to go toward the closed position). Con- versely, as less pressure is required, the switch drives the outside air damper in the opposite direction.
Service: Clean the tubing and the screened ends of the pressure tap vents.
If the interior of the switch is protected from dust, dirt, corrosive gases and fluids, years of
switch is only on systems with an optional console that includes a dirty filter light. The pressure switch is set during installation so that the light will be activated at approximately 50% filter blockage. Contacts should close at .17 to 5.0" w.c. ± .05" w.c.
Service: Clean the sensor tubes. If the dirty filter indicator system still does not function properly, check the setting of the switch. With clean filters in place, blower doors closed, and blower in operation, decrease the pressure setting by adjusting the set screw on the switch clockwise until the filter light is energized or screw is bottomed out. At that point, adjust the set screw three full turns counterclockwise or until the screw is top ended.
If it is determined that the switch needs replacing, use an identical switch. When a new switch is installed, it must be manually set; follow the instructions above.

15. Dirty Filter Switch
Location: Switch is located in the main electrical box (See Figure 7); sensor tubes run to either side of the filter rack; indicator light is on the remote console.
Function: The dirty filter switch is a pressure switch that activates an indicator light on the remote console when the filters need cleaned or replaced (See Ser- vice Section, Paragraph 2). This

discharge duct.
Function: The freezestat will shut down the system if the discharge temperature falls below the setpoint. The switch is automatic and will startup the heater when the temperature reaches the setpoint.
Service: Clean the external surface. Check the wiring and connections.
REFERENCE: For service and troubleshooting information on the electrical controls, refer to the manufacturer's literature covering that component. Component literature is included in the literature envelope shipped with the system.
Refer to Paragraph 19 for unit troubleshooting.
