Product/Technical F61 Issue Date July 30, 2002 F61 Series Switches The F61 Series Switches respond to fluid flow in lines carrying water, ethylene glycol, or other nonhazardous fluids. Two subseries are available. F61 Series Sensitive Switches respond to low fluid flow rates in applications with pipe sizes under 1-inch trade size. (See Figure 1.) F61 Series Standard Switches use a variety of paddle sizes to respond to fluid flow rates in applications with pipe sizes greater than 1-inch trade size. (See Figure 2.) Figure 1: F61MD (Left) and F61KD (Right) Sensitive Switches Single-Pole, Double-Throw (SPDT) and Single-Pole, Single-Throw (SPST) open-low versions of these flow switches are available. Figure 2: F61KB Standard Switch Features and Benefits NEMA 3 or NEMA 3R Allows use in indoor or outdoor applications Enclosure on Selected Models Stainless Steel Bellows on Selected Models Low- Operation on Selected (Sensitive) Models Gold-Plated Contacts on MG Models Maximum Fluid Pressure of 150 psig (1034 kpa) Allow use in fluid lines carrying chlorinated water, treated water, or other nonhazardous fluids Actuates switch with less than 1.0 GPM (3.8 L/min) flow for water applications or 9.0 GPM (34.1 L/min) flow for steam applications Reduces intermittent contact problems in low-voltage and low-current circuits Permits use in a wide range of pressure flow conditions 2002 Johnson Controls, Inc. 1 Code No. LIT-125225 www.johnsoncontrols.com

Application IMPORTANT: All F61 Series Switches are intended to control equipment under normal operating conditions. Where failure or malfunction of an F61 Switch could lead to an abnormal operating condition that could cause personal injury or damage to the equipment or other property, other devices (limit or safety controls) or systems (alarm or supervisory) intended to warn of, or protect against, failure or malfunction of the F61 Switch must be incorporated into and maintained as part of the control system.! CAUTION: Risk of Equipment Damage. Do not use F61 Series Switches with hazardous fluids or in hazardous atmospheres. Use in these conditions may cause malfunction or improper operation. IMPORTANT: F61 Series Switches must not be used where the fluid in the pipes drops below the fluid s freezing point, causing an internal freeze-up. Sensitive Switches The F61 Series Sensitive Switches have 1/2 in. Female NPTF or 3/4 in. Female NPTF inlet and outlet connections. Use F61 Sensitive Switches in applications where flow rates are low, such as: water purification and treatment systems booster pumps cooling systems for electronic tubes, bearings, and compressors rapid recovery water heaters (starting the water heater when water is withdrawn) control of food waste disposal units (starting motor when a predetermined amount of water is flowing through the unit and stops when the flow decreases to a predetermined rate) switch to shut down the refrigeration compressor on a fluid chiller system if flow stops, reducing chances of chiller freeze-ups Standard Switches Use F61 Series Standard Switches in applications with fluid pressures up to 150 psig (1034 kpa). A typical application for a standard F61 flow switch is to shut down the refrigeration compressor on a fluid chiller system if flow stops, reducing chances of chiller freeze-ups. NEMA 1 Enclosures Use models with NEMA 1 enclosures for indoor applications where they are protected from weather and splashing water. Use these models with pipes carrying fluids at temperatures in the range of 32 to 250 F (0 to 121 C) where fluid temperatures are above ambient dew point. NEMA 3/NEMA 3R Enclosures Use models with NEMA 3/NEMA 3R (rain-tight) enclosures for indoor or outdoor applications in high-humidity environments. Use these models in applications with pipes carrying fluids at temperatures below dew point temperature or below 32 F (0 C) but above -20 F (-29 C). Do not use these models in applications or environments where the temperature may cause the fluid to freeze. Gold Contacts Models with gold-plated contacts provide improved electrical performance in low-voltage, low-current circuits. Use these models for low-energy loads to operate small relays, solenoid valves, and electronic control circuits. Operation The flow switch responds to pressure exerted on the fluid paddle by the flowing fluid. A range adjustment screw adjusts the rate of flow required to actuate the switch. Table 1: SPDT Switch Wiring Types Switch Wiring F61KB, F61KD, F61LB color-coded terminals F61MB, F61MD, F61MG four color-coded wire leads The red terminal or wire is the Common. The green wire is Ground. Red to Yellow closes on flow increase. Red to Blue closes on flow decrease. See Table 4 through Table 8 for flow rates. 2 F61 Series Switches Product/Technical Bulletin

Installing the Paddles IMPORTANT: To allow the switch to detect changes in the fluid flow, the flow paddle must not touch the pipe or any restrictions in the pipe. 4 in. Adjust flow paddles to the size of the pipe used. Install the large flow paddle, if needed. Trim the flow paddle at the arc corresponding to the pipe size (see Figure 7 and Figure 8). 5 in. Original Length 6 in. Figure 8: Trimming Diagram for Large Paddle Paddle Screw Trim flow paddles to fit pipe diameter or remove flow paddles that are too large to fit pipe diameter. Figure 7: Installing the Paddles F61 Series Switches Product/Technical Bulletin 5

Mounting! CAUTION: Risk of Equipment Damage. To avoid damaging the switch, do not tighten the switch to the tee by grasping the switch enclosure. Use only the wrench flats provided. Tee or Welded Half-coupling A A Mount the F61 Series Switches using the following guidelines: Install the switch so that the cover and interior are accessible. Mount the switch so that the flow of fluid is in the direction of the arrow on the switch casing. Use a pipe union on each side of the flow switch to allow easy removal or replacement. Do not allow the pipe to extend too far into the flow switch casing. Use pipe thread sealer on male threads only. Do not remove the cover gasket or the wire grommet from the conduit opening. For 1 in. pipe installation, mount the F61 flow switch in a standard 1 in. x 1 in. x 1 in. tee. For larger sizes of pipe, use a reducing tee to keep the flow switch close to the pipe and provide adequate paddle length in the flow stream. Example: Use a 2 in. x 2 in. x 1 in. tee for a 2 in. pipe. If a standard 2 in. x 2 in. x 2 in. tee is used, install a face or hex bushing in the top opening to reduce it to 1 in. Mount the flow switch so the terminals or wire leads are easily accessible for wiring. Screw the flow switch in position so the flat of the paddle is at a right angle to the flow. The arrow on the side of the case must point in the direction of the flow. Location Considerations Mount the F61 flow switch in a horizontal pipeline or a vertical pipeline with upward fluid flow. Do not use in a vertical pipeline with downward flow. When mounted in a vertical pipe with upward flow, the switch trips at a slightly higher flow than shown in Table 4 through Table 8, due to the effect of gravity on the switch mechanism. Mount the F61 flow switch in a section of pipe where there is a straight run of at least five pipe diameters on each side of the flow switch from the nearest elbow, valve, or other pipe restriction. See Figure 9. Dimension A must be at least five pipe diameters from the nearest elbow, valve, or other pipe restriction. Figure 9: Required Piping Distance Do not subject the flow switches to water hammer. Use a suitable water hammer arrester if a fast-closing valve is located downstream of the flow switch. See Figure 10. Switch Water Hammer Arrester Valve Figure 10: Water Hammer Arrester Location Schematic Wiring! WARNING: Risk of Electrical Shock. Disconnect power supply before making electrical connections. Failure to follow this precaution may result in equipment damage, electrical shock or death.! CAUTION: Risk of Equipment Damage. Using terminal screws other than those provided will void the warranty and may damage the switch. Use only the terminal screws furnished. IMPORTANT: To prevent moisture from entering and condensate forming inside the NEMA 3R enclosure, do not remove the cover gasket or the wire grommet from the conduit opening. 6 F61 Series Switches Product/Technical Bulletin

IMPORTANT: Install all wiring in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local regulations. Make all wiring connections using copper conductors only. Do not exceed the control s electrical rating. Models of the F61KB, F61KD, and F61LB types have three color-coded terminals. Red is common. See Table 3 and Figure 11. Models of the F61MB, F61MD and F61MG types have four color-coded wire leads. Red is common; green is ground. See Table 3. Table 3: Switch Action Action Increase Decrease Increase in Above Setpoint Red Yellow Blue Switch Closure Red to Yellow Red to Blue Decrease in Above Setpoint! CAUTION: Risk of Equipment Damage. Sealed settings (screws marked with black paint) are not intended to be changed. Adjustment attempts may damage the control or cause loss of calibration, voiding the warranty. To adjust the setting of the flow switch: 1. Disconnect power supply before making electrical connections. 2. Remove the F61 flow switch cover. 3. Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to raise the flow rate. Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise to lower the flow rate. See Figure 12. 4. Replace the cover after completing adjustments. Tighten the cover screws to 12 in lbs of torque. Note: Do not lower the flow rate unless it has been raised from the factory setting. Lower Rates Less liquid flow required to switch from R-Y to R-B. Higher Rates More liquid flow required to switch Red from R-Y to R-B. Yellow Blue Adjustment Figure 11: Switch Action Adjusting Screw Figure 12: Rate Adjustment! WARNING: Risk of Electrical Shock. Disconnect power supply before making electrical connections. Failure to follow this precaution may result in equipment damage, electrical shock or death.! CAUTION: Risk of Improper Operation. The switch is factory set at approximately the minimum flow rate (see Table 4 through Table 8). Do not set lower than the factory setting as this may result in the switch failing to return to a no flow position. F61 Series Switches Product/Technical Bulletin 7

To verify that the flow rate is set above the factory minimum (see Figure 13): 1. Depress the main lever numerous times. If the lever fails to click upon return at any time, the flow rate is set below the factory-set minimum. 2. Raise the flow rate to approximately the factory minimum by turning the adjusting screw clockwise until the lever clicks upon return every time.

The circuit between the red and the yellow leads (terminals) closes when sufficient fluid flows through the pipe to trip the F61 flow switch. Troubleshooting Table 9: Troubleshooting Symptom/Problem Water (condensate) is within the enclosure. Fluid from the tank is leaking into enclosure due to bellows failure. Switch does not activate due to debris caught within the switch mechanism. Control switch action is reversed. Solution Use a model with a NEMA 3R enclosure. If using a model with a NEMA 3R enclosure, inspect the grommet in the conduit fitting. Replace grommet if defective. Replace flow switch. Clear any debris within the switch mechanism. Test the operation of switch several times for proper operation. Ensure connections follow wiring diagrams. Control does not switch. Check connections. Switch fails to return to the no flow position. Control does not switch on flow increase. Switch is set lower than the factory setting. Increase the setting. On vertical pipes, ensure that direction of flow is up. The arrow on switch must point in direction of flow (up). Check for cracked/broken paddle. Replace if necessary. F61 Series Switches Product/Technical Bulletin 11
