the holes in the bottom half of the flanges (Figure 5, page 13). Install
additional nuts inside the flanges, if needed, to separate the flanges
while inserting the meter. (See “spreader” nuts in Figure 3, page 8.)
Lower the meter between the flanges and align the bore with the flow
-
line. If centering rings are installed, the meter will rest on them.
Install the remainder of the all-thread studs and nuts through the holes
in the top half of the flanges.
Tighten the nuts.
Insert the magnetic pickup assembly into the flowmeter and turn it until
it is hand-tight, then back it out ¼ turn. Tighten the lock nut to prevent
the pickup from vibrating.
Calibration
The EZ-IN
®
Series flowmeter is precalibrated with water at the factory
and tagged with the calibration factor in pulses per gallon. For maximum
accuracy with fluids other than water, calibrate the meter with the desired
fluid in the flowline. This meter can be calibrated using any conventional
turbine meter calibration method.
