The flowmeter must be installed in the boom supply line
after any strainers, return lines, or valves, but before the
boom shut-off valves. Se cure ly mount flow me ter (hardware
not supplied) in a vertical position in an area away from
in tense vibration.
dO NOT
install flowmeter closer than 12”
to the servo valve or the boom shut-off valves.
(the flow
me ter may need periodic cleaning, so it should be easy to
remove.)
The flow meter is a bidirectional meter
(exception:
Polmac’s 1 ½” 3”).
Liquid can flow in either direction, but
up is preferred. Make con nec tions us ing 3/4” fit tings without
the use of reducers, elbows or sharp bends for a minimum of
six inches (15 cm) either side of meter. See Illustration 11.
nOte: Save plastic plugs to protect flowmeter during
storage.
Installing Flow Sensor Cable
With the flowmeter in place, install the flow sensor cable
(GREEN body).
See illustration 12.
Screw sensor all the way into hole of flow me ter. Tight en 3/8”
jam nut to lock sen sor in place.
Uncoil flow sensor cable and carefully route it to meet
the module flow cable connector marked with GREEN tie.
Align connectors and press firmly together until locking
tab clicks into place. Secure cable with ties provided.
