1]

it is recommended that when setting

up pipework for meter installations a

bypass line be included in the design.

This provides the facility for a meter

to be removed for maintenace

without interrupting production. (See

Fig.1)

2]

Use thread sealant on all pipe

threads.

3]

For pump applications ensure pipe

work has the appropriate working

pressure rating to match the pressure

output of the pump. See Meter

Specifications section for further

details.

4]

Install a wire mesh strainer (Y or

basket type 60 mesh as close as

possible to the inlet side of the meter.

5]

Ensure that the meter is installed so

that the flow of the liquid is in the

direction of the arrows embossed on

the meter body.

6]

The meter can be installed in any

orientation as long as the meter shafts

are in a horizontal plane. (Refer to

Fig.2 for correct installation) The

register assembly may be orientated

to suit the individual installation.

Note: Incorrect installation can cause

premature wear of meter components.

7]

Do not over tighten meter

connections.

8] It is important that after initial

installation you fill the line slowly,

high speed air purge could cause

damage to the rotors.

9]

Test the system for leaks.

10]

Check the strainer for swarf or

foreign material, after the first 200

litres check periodically,

particularly if the flow rate

decreases.
