Stop valves or cocks
In order to avoid backflow and draining, stop valves must be mounted after the meter.
Backflow and draining cause faulty measurements and may damage the meter.
Dirt filter, Safety filter
Filters should be fitted to prevent any damage to the meter from impurities in the liquid.
* If a dirt filter with the given mesh size is used, the safety filter in the meter
inlet can be removed.
The filter mounted in the meter inlet is only a safety filter and is too small to act as a dirt filter.
Heat insulation
The measurement transducer must not be insulated. This could cause its permitted temperature range to be exceeded.
