TECHNICAL DETAILS
* This Mechanical Fuel Meter can be used to measure the flow of kerosene, diesel oil, water or
other fluids of low viscosity.
PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Stay alert,
watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a fuel meter. Do
not use a fuel meter while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
•
Dress properly.
Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
•
Use safety apparel and equipment.
Use safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields
which comply with current national standards, or when needed, a face shield. Use as dust mask
in dusty work conditions. This applies to all persons in the work area. Also use non-skid safety
shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection systems, and hearing protection when appropriate.
•
Do not overreach.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
INSTALLATION
1. The meter can be installed in any position, directly on rigid pipelines or flexible hoses, or
directly on pumps or tanks.
2. The meter flow direction is fixed and indicated by an arrow. The meter is supplied in the
standard configuration (Figure A).
3. The counter and the cover can be rotated around the body in order to carry out the different
configurations (Figures B, C & D).
4. The reset knob can be installed either on the right side or on the left side of the meter in
order to modify the standard configuration, following the instructions provided in the section
“Disassembly/Reassembly.”
5. The meter body is equipped with 4 blind holes which can be threaded for a possible
fastening. If solid particles enter the measuring chamber the correct working of the nutating
disk may be affected.
6. Always filter the fluid by installing a filter (included) on the meter inlet.
