STORING WHEN NOT IN USE
Removing the batteries before storing the flow meter will extend battery life
since the flow meter is always on (either standby or active) when the batteries are
installed.
If the AAA battery life is sufficiently
low, “ LOWBAT ” will be displayed in the
message area on the bottom row of
characters. This low battery message
will be displayed automatically without
running a diagnostic battery check.
BATTERY INFORMATION
The flow meter is shipped with (2) alkaline AAA size batteries (1.5-volts each) and
(1) lithium CR2477 (3 volts) installed.
Alkaline (AAA size, 1.5-volts each)
Energizer, Alkaline, E92 or En92
Duracell, Alkaline, Mn2400
Lithium CR2477 size (3-volts)
Panasonic, Sony or Toshiba
NOTE: When batteries are disconnected or fail, the flow meter memory will retain
the batch total, accumulative total, factory calibration curve, and field calibration
curve indefinitely.
RECOMMENDED BATTERY REPLACEMENTS
Do not mix brands or technologies.
Do not mix old and new batteries.
Do not use rechargeable batteries.
NOTE: It is recommended to replace the batteries every year.
If the flow meter's readout should become dim, blank or the low battery message
appears (see below), the AAA batteries should be replaced.
The CR2477 lithium battery level is displayed in FRED. See the "FRED Integration"
section of this manual for more information.
