6.
the lint from it will stick to the tube interior. Place the tube at a
angle between a horizontal and vertical surface (as between a
shelf and a wall) with both ends open so that air can flow
through. Do not blow through the tube as moisture from the
breath will condense on the tube walls.
6
To clean the float, pour about an inch of warm to hot water (55
to 65° C) into the cup containing the float. Grasp the float with
tweezers and shake it from side to side for a few seconds
while keeping it submerged. Release the float. Repeat the
action several times so that all surfaces are washed. Hold the
float with the tweezers, discard the wash water and repeat the
above. A few drops of detergent will improve the process. Do
not hold the float with your fingers.
7
Allow the float to dry on a clean surface and then, with twee-
zers place it in a clean dry cup.
Note
Do not attempt to dry the float with a piece of rag or with paper to-
wel as electro static forces will make lint and other particles stick
to the float.
8
Clean the float stops with water as necessary. These may be
handled with the fingers. Dry thoroughly before reassembly.
9
When the tube, float and float stops are clean and dry, reas-
semble the flowmeter as described in Section 4.3.1.
6.8.3
Cleaning the V-notch plug
The same contaminants seen in the flowmeter are in the gas
stream flowing through the V-notch orifice and may also be depo-
sited at this point. When the flowmeter is cleaned, clean the V-
notch plug at the same time. If at any time float movement is not
proportional to V-notch plug adjustment (a sudden marked rise or
drop for a small amount of plug adjustment), the V-notch plug
needs cleaning.
1
Shut down the gas feed system, evacuate all gas and release
any pressure in the discharge line (see Section 5.2.2).
2
On manually controlled flowmeters remove the V-notch
assembly completely from the flowmeter housing.
3
Using running water or a cup full of water and a small, stiff
brush (such as a tooth brush) scrub out the V-notch groove
and the shank of the plug. Do not use a knife, scraper or file to
clean out the groove. Dissolving action and scrubbing are all
that are required.
4
Dry the plug with a clean cloth or paper towel and refit to unit.
