4.3 Application Guidelines
Basic Requirements
● Determine pipe material and dimensions.
● Avoid vertical pipes flowing in a downward direction.
● Avoid installation of sensors on the top and bottom of horizontal pipes, if possible.
● Select a location with the longest straight run of pipe.
● Identify upstream piping configuration (elbow, reducer, etc.).
● Pipe surface should be smooth and, if necessary, free of paint.
● Avoid pressure reduction components upstream.
● Avoid mounting on or near weld seams.
● Pipe must be full to achieve proper operation.
4.4 AC Battery Charger
The flow meter has an optional battery charger that operates from a 100, 110 or 220 VAC
(50 Hz or 60 Hz) power source. It has a universal power input that requires no user
switching.
Optional cords can be provided for connection to AC outlets in most countries.
CAUTION
The 1015BCK-1 Power Adapter/Battery charger is NOT waterproof or water resistant. Do
not allow it to become wet, or attempt to use it when wet. Exposure to a wet or submerged
environment will result in damage to the unit that cannot be repaired and could expose the
user to the risk of electric shock.
