1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Every ULTRA OVAL with a batch control feature is thoroughly tested before it leaves the factory. When
received, it should be thoroughly inspected for indication of rough handling during transit. Necessary handling
precautions are described in this section; read the instructions carefully. As for other information, find the
respective sections from "CONTENTS" on pages 2 and 3.
For any inquiries, contact your nearest OVAL sales office.
CAUTION: When you make inquiries, include the product name, model number,
product number, ratings and other pertinent information.
1.1 Confirming the Nameplate
Every Ultra OVAL is assembled and
adjusted according to individual
specifications.
Product code number and ratings
are stated on the register nameplate.
Make sure that, the ratings shown
conform to your particular specification.
1.2 Transportation Considerations
(1) To safeguard against damage during transit, transport the Ultra OVAL to the installation site in the same
container used for transportation from the factory if circumstances permit.
(2) Ultra OVAL is adjusted and inspected as an assembly consisting of the meter body, sensor and register. It
should therefore be handled as an integral assembly.
(3) The register is accurately configured and adjusted. Do not remove its front cover to gain access to its
internal assembly except for reconfiguration.
1.3 Storage Considerations
If your Ultra OVAL is stored for long periods of time upon receipt before installation, unexpected faulty
conditions could result. If a long-term storage is anticipated, take the following precautions:
(1) Keep the Ultra OVAL in store in the same shipping container used for transportation from OVAL if possible.
(2) Place of storage should conform to the following requirements:
- Free from rain and water.
- Free from vibration and impact shocks.
- Temperature and relative humidity in the storage place are at or near room temperature and humidity
(around 25°C and 65%).
(3) Purge the Ultra OVAL that has once been placed in service with clean air, N
2
gas, etc. to prevent the
metered fluid from adhering to the meter connections, piping inner walls, housing, etc. before storage. (Wash
clean with suitable detergent if necessary.)
(4) In case of storage for extended periods of time, good practice is to remove the battery pack from the
register.
NOTE: See Sec. 10.2 "Battery Pack Replacement" on page 36.
