4.0 OPERATION

1) Press ON/MODE button to turn on electronics.

2) Display will toggle between fl ow and pressure with a red or green light to indicate pressure or fl ow. Also while displaying fl ow,
    numbers will fl ash.

3) Pressing the ON/MODE button for ~1 second will lock the display on fl ow. Pressing again will lock the display on pressure.
    Pressing a third time will turn the unit off.

4) Anytime the pressure is less than 5 psi (0.5 bar) for 1 minute, the Sho-Flow fl ow indicator will automatically turn off.

5) If the display indicates  “- - - -“, the fl ow is too low to be displayed.

6) The 1.5” Sho-Flow may be programmed to give an audible fl ow warning.

WARNING

Kinks in supply hose may reduce water fl ow and cause injury or death to persons dependant 
on water fl ow. When the SHO-FLOW is attached directly to a fi xed supply, it is recommended 
that an outlet elbow be used to minimize risk of hoseline kinks.

WARNING

The Sho-Flow is not rated for use in explosive atmospheres.

CAUTION

The SHO-FLOW must be properly connected. Mismatched or damaged connectors may cause 
leaking or uncoupling under pressure and could cause injury.

5.0  FLOW WARNING SET POINT PROGRAMMING - 1.5” VERSION

1)  Press and hold the ON/MODE button for 30 seconds.  Release when display shows dashes.

2) Adjust water fl ow to the desired low fl ow warning level.  Display will indicate fl ow.

3) Press and hold ON/MODE button until (PSI) LED turns on.  Release button.

4) (GPM) LED should now be blinking.

5) Adjust water fl ow to the desired high fl ow warning level.  Display will indicate fl ow.

6) Press and hold ON/MODE button until (BAR) LED turns on.  Release button.

7) Verify that display cycles through low fl ow and high fl ow warning set points.

8) Programming is complete.

If fl ow warning set points are programmed, display will cycle through low fl ow warning set point and then high fl ow warning set 
point when unit is turned on.

If the fl ow warning set points are programmed, an alarm will sound during the following conditions:

 

 

Low Flow:  Water fl ow is greater than the minimum rated fl ow of the device and less than the low fl ow set point

 

 

High Flow:  Water fl ow is greater than the high fl ow set point

6.0  CHANGING BATTERY

When the battery power gets low the display indicates 
“LO BATT” but continues to operate until dead.

1) Recommended battery: 9V lithium.

2) Alkaline batteries are acceptable, but battery life is 

signifi cantly less.

3) Using #2 Phillips screwdriver loosen screws. Pull lid at 

fi nger pockets to remove.
