Meter Installation
METER INSTALLATION
Relieve System Pressure
THIS EQUIPMENT STAYS PRESSURIZED UNTIL THE PRESSURE IS MANUALLY RELIEVED.
1 . Turn off the power supply to the pump or close the shutoff valve .
2 . Dispense any fluid in the system into a waste container by opening the meter .
3 . Open all bleed-type master air valves and fluid meter in the system .
4 . Leave the meter open until ready to pressurize the system .
To reduce the risk of injury from fluid spray from the meter, follow this procedure when you:
• Are instructed to relieve pressure .
• Stop dispensing .
• Check, clean or service any system equipment .
• Clean or install nozzles .
Grounding
MOVEMENT OF FLUIDS THROUGH THE DISPENSING SYSTEM CREATES STATIC ELECTRICITY. STATIC ELECTRICITY CAN
CAUSE VOLATILE FUMES RESULTING IN AN EXPLOSION AND FIRE. THE DISPENSING SYSTEM MUST BE GROUNDED.
Grounding reduces the risk of static sparking . Ground all system components according to local, state and federal codes .
Consult the pump user manual and other system components to ground the following:
• Pump: follow manufacturer's recommendations
• Air and Fluid Hoses: use only grounded hoses
• Air Compressor: follow manufacturers recommendations
• Fluid Supply Container: follow the local code
Flushing Procedure
IF THIS INSTALLATION IS NEW OR IF THE FLUID IN THE LINES IS CONTAMINATED, FLUSH THE SYSTEM BEFORE
INSTALLING THE METER(S).
OTEE:
N
If the system has multiple dispense positions, begin at the position farthest from the pump and move towards
the pump .
1 . Close fluid dispense valves at every position .
2 . Once the main fluid outlet valve at the pump is closed and the air pressure to the pump motor is properly adjusted, the air
valve is opened .
3 . Slowly open the main fluid valve .
4 . Place the hose end in a waste container . Make sure the hose is secure so no fluid leaks during flushing .
5 . Slowly open the dispense valve and allow enough fluid to pass through it to ensure that the system is clean .
6 . Close the valve and repeat for all dispense positions .
