Your CODA KM-Series Coriolis mass flow meter has been shipped with ¼″
VCR®-compatible male process connections. Use in-line filters to prevent
large particulates from entering the device. The suggested maximum
particulate size is 20 microns for meters.
!
Warning:
Do not use pipe dopes or sealants on the process
connections, as these compounds can cause permanent
damage to the meter should they get into the flow stream.
Maximum Pressure
The table below provides proof and burst pressures for each device range.
Operating the device above the proof pressure can permanently damage
the device. Operating above the burst pressure for even short periods
will result in the device rupturing.
High Pressure variants of KM meters are available. Please consult the
calibration sheet on a per device basis to confirm the maximum operating
pressures.

Connecting Plumbing
Ensure that flow through your meter is in the same direction as the arrow
on the flow body (usually left to right).
