So I'm doing reverse engineering on a piece of equipment. There are some coupling nozzles, and the manufacturing drawing indicates that the internal projections of these nozzles are 'A/S'.

I'm guessing S would be for 'side', like shell side or tube side, but what might A be? The equipment is used to filter sand in production.
 
I've never seen that abbreviation before but my guess is that "A/S" might stand for "As Shown". If the couplings are hillside mounted or skewed you can't easily quantify the internal projection dimension, you'd need to look at the drawing.
