Reset Volume Controllers
CSC-2000 Series
Connections Adjustments
Any sequencing with other controllers, valves, or
pneumatic-electric relays must be sequenced with
the controller’s reset range, not the actuator’s spring
range.
These controllers are typically used on single-duct
applications but may be found in dual-duct appli-
cations. When working on dual-duct applications
it may be necessary to work on one duct at a time
while closing o the other.
The CSC-2000 series controllers are position sensi-
tive. See the Mounting section on the next page for
the proper vertical/horizontal orientation for the dif-
ferent models.
CAUTION
Pneumatic devices must be supplied with clean,
dry control air. Any other medium (e.g., oil or
moisture contamination) will cause the device
to fail.
CSC-2000 Series Overview
The CSC-2000s are dierential-pressure (∆P), sub-
master controllers with adjustable minimum and
maximum airow seings. A master controller,
typically a room thermostat, resets the CSC velocity
setpoint.
CSC-2000s are available as direct acting for normally
open VAV terminal units, and reverse acting for nor-
mal closed VAV terminal units. Each unit is equipped
with separate adjustment knobs for minimum and
maximum airow seings. CSC-2001/2002s are
equipped with 0–10 reference dials, while all others
have blind adjustments. Calibrate all models using
standard airow measuring equipment.
The spring range of the actuator does not maer
to the controller. However, sucient main air is
required to provide the actuator with enough force
to operate the damper/linkage.

Mounting
As close to the ow sensor pickup as is feasible,
fasten the mounting bracket to the mounting surface
with two self-threading screws in the two 3/16 in.
(5 mm) holes. (Make sure to leave enough room to
make connections.)
The CSC-2000 series are position sensitive:
• The minimum and maximum ow limits must
be set (calibrated) in the same position the
controller will be mounted.
• The CSC-2001/2002 (with 0–10 molded plastic
dials) must be mounted horizontally with dial
adjustment knobs facing up.
• The CSC-2003 through CSC-2018 (no molded
dials) may be mounted horizontally (preferred),
with the adjustment knobs up or down, or
mounted vertically (the diaphragm inside must
be in a horizontal or vertical plane).
NOTE: If replacing a CSC-2001-22 or CSC-2002-22
(designed for vertical mount and now
obsolete), use the CSC-2001 or CSC-2002 as
appropriate and mount dials face up or use
the CSC-2003 or CSC-2004 as appropriate
and mount vertically or horizontally.
Direct Acting BEIGE units (CSC-2001/2003/2007/
2009/2017) are designed for normally open dampers
with direct-acting thermostats for cooling and re-
verse-acting thermostats for heating.
Reverse Acting GRAY units (CSC-2002/2004/2008/
2010/2018) are designed for normally closed damp-
ers with reverse-acting thermostats for cooling and
direct-acting thermostats for heating.

Troubleshooting
The CSC-2000 series are position sensitive. Be sure
to mount the controller with the correct orientation.
See the Mounting section.
NOTE: If the controller is calibrated in a position
other than the nal mounting position, the
calibration (minimum and maximum ow
limits) will be o.
To minimize issues related to pressure, always use
3/8 in. tubing for the “X” and “Y” ports and keep
the tubing lengths as short as possible. If the sen-
sor has 1/4 in. ings, use 3/8 in. tubing and adapt-
ers at the sensor.
Some older style ow sensors may have restrictive
openings for the low pressure pickup. Replacement
of the ow sensor pickup may be necessary.
For additional troubleshooting information, see the
CSC-2000 Applications Guide.
Connections
All Units
For all models of the CSC-2000 Series use 1/4 in. (6
mm) O.D. “FR” tubing for the following connections:
1. Connect the main air supply to port “M”.
2. Connect the actuator to port “B”.
3. Connect the thermostat to port “T”.
Beige Units
Use 3/8 in. O.D. “FR” tubing with a maximum
length of 24 in. to connect:
1. High pressure to port “X”.
2. Low pressure to port “Y”.
Gray Units
Use 3/8 in. O.D. “FR” tubing with a maximum
length of 24 in. to connect:
1. Low pressure to port “X”.
2. High pressure to port “Y”.
CAUTION
Pneumatic devices must be supplied with clean,
dry control air. Any other medium (e.g., oil or
moisture contamination) will cause the device
to fail.
Adjustments and Calibration
GRAY Controllers (Reverse Acting)
1. Check that there is 0 psi at the “T” Port.
2. Use a ow hood or “tee” a Magnehelic® (or
equivalent) dierential pressure gauge between
the controller and the ∆P pick-up.
3. The “HI” ow seing limit (center knob) must
be set rst. Temporarily adjust the thermostat
for a branch pressure lower than the 3 psig reset
start point (maximum cooling); typically 1 psig or
less is best. Removing the thermostat branch line
would be another acceptable method. Adjust the
“HI” knob (center knob) counterclockwise to in-
crease or clockwise to decrease ∆P limit. Normally
one-half turn will cause a 0.1 ∆P change. Allow
for reaction time. Depending on actuator size and
position, timing will vary. To position an actua-
tor/damper from closed to open may take several
minutes.
4. The “LO” ow seing limit must be set aer the
“HI”. Temporarily adjust the thermostat for a
branch pressure higher than the 8 psig reset stop
point (minimum cooling); typically 12 psig or
greater is best. Removing the thermostat branch
line and teeing-in to the main air line would be
another acceptable method. Adjust the “LO” knob
(outside knob) counterclockwise to increase or
clockwise to decrease ∆P limit. Normally one-half
turn will cause a 0.1 ∆P change. Allow for reaction
time.
5. Recheck the “HI” and the “LO” seings at least
twice, verify seings, and ne tune each time if
necessary. This procedure will remove internal
component tensions and conrm seings.
6. Reconnect the thermostat branch line if necessary,
and adjust the thermostat to the desired room
temperature setpoint.
NOTE: The “LO” adjustment limits the travel of
the reset mechanism. Therefore, the reset
span will be less than 5 psig, the upper limit
being less than 8 psig.
NOTE: Always make adjustments in the same
plane/orientation as the one in which the
unit will operate.
NOTE: For principles of operation and sample
applications, see the CSC-2000 Applications
Guide.

BEIGE Controllers (Direct Acting)
1. Check that there is 0 psi at the “T” Port.
2. Use a ow hood or “tee” a Magnehelic® (or equiv-
alent) dierential pressure gauge between the
controller and the ∆P pick-up.
3. The “LO” ow seing limit (center knob) must
be set rst. Temporarily adjust the thermostat
for a branch pressure lower than the 8 psig reset
start point (minimum cooling); typically 6 psig or
less is best. Removing the thermostat branch line
would be another acceptable method. Adjust the
“LO” knob (center knob) clockwise to increase or
counterclockwise to decrease ∆P limit. Normally
one-half turn will cause a 0.1 ∆P change. Allow
for reaction time. Depending on actuator size and
position, timing will vary. To position an actua-
tor/damper from closed to open may take several
minutes.
NOTE: If the “LO” ow seing limit must be set at
“0” (zero minimum), do not turn the “LO”
knob fully counterclockwise. The knob will
adjust three to four full turns aer a zero
minimum is reached. Turning the “LO”
knob fully counterclockwise will result in
a negative reset condition. This means that
when the controller is beginning to reset
at 8 psig from the thermostat, it must rst
overcome the negative adjustment and will
not begin to reset until a higher thermostat
reset pressure is reached. This negative
reset will also reduce the eective range
of the controller by reducing the high end
and narrowing the reset span. If a zero
minimum is required, adjust the “LO” knob
until the controller just begins to crack the
damper open, then back-o one-fourth turn
and verify zero airow.
4. The “HI” ow seing limit (outer knob) must be
set aer the “LO”. Temporarily adjust the ther-
mostat for a branch pressure higher than the 13
psig reset stop point (maximum cooling); typically
17 psig or greater is best. Removing the thermo-
stat branch line and teeing-in to the main air line
would be another acceptable method. Adjust the
“HI” knob (outer knob) clockwise to increase or
counterclockwise to decrease ∆P limit. Nominally
one-half turn will cause a 0.1 ∆P change. Allow for
reaction time.
5. Recheck the “LO” and the “HI” seings at least
twice, verify seings, and ne tune each time if
necessary. This procedure will remove internal
component tensions and conrm seings.
6. Reconnect the thermostat branch line if necessary,
and adjust the thermostat to the desired room tem-
perature setpoint.
NOTE: The “HI” adjustment limits the travel of
the reset mechanism. Therefore, the reset
span will be less than 5 psig, the upper limit
being less than 13 psig.
NOTE: Always make adjustments in the same
plane/orientation as the one in which the
unit will operate.
