Arrival of Damaged Equipment

Your instrument was inspected prior to shipment and found to be defect-free. If damage is 
visible on the unit, we advise that you carefully inspect the packing in which it was 
delivered. If damage is visible, notify your local carrier at once. The carrier is liable for a 
replacement under these circumstances. If your claim is refused, please contact 
KOBOLD Instruments.

Maintenance

The ZDM is continuously lubricated by the medium flowing through its internal 
components, so no extra lubrication is required.

Please note the following typical filtration requirements:

ZDM-XX02 to ZDM-XX07:

10 um

ZDM-XX08 to ZDM-XX09:

20 um

ZDM-XX10 to ZDM-XX40:

50 um

Make sure that the filter is kept in proper functioning condition. The frequency of filter 
replacement and maintenance will depend on the level on cleanliness of the metered 
liquid.

The only wear component in the ZDM are the gear teeth. The gear teeth will wear with 
time. The rate of wear depends on the time of operation and the abrasion/lubrication 
properties of your measured liquid. We recommend that users perform a periodic (every 
six months is suggested) check of the meter calibration. The most effective way to do this 
is to use a calibrated container, a timer and accurate weight scale.
