General maintenance 

 

 

Yenen developed several spare part kits for maintaining the meter. Partial or other repairs should not 
be attempted as this may jeopardize the safety and accuracy of the meter.   
 

 

Only trained, qualified and certified  personnel familiar with handling  liquids under pressure, such 
as LPG, may service Yenen equipment 
 

 

Installation  details  of  the  spare  part  kits  are  provided  with  the  kit  itself.  With  the  meter 
disassembled it is recommended that you perform a visual inspection of the entire meter:  
 

 

Check  the  o-rings.  O-rings  should  be  smooth.  Cracked,  warn  or  dry  o-rings  need  to  be, 
replaced. Also, scratched o-rings may cause inaccuracy of the meter.  

 

Check  the  gaskets.  Gaskets  should  be  firm,  but  flexible.  Cracked,  worn  or  torn  gaskets 
need  to  be  replaced.  Scratched  gaskets  may  cause  internal  leaks,  which  causes  the  
meter to be inaccurate.  

 

Check  fasteners  and  threads.  There  should  be  no  debris  in  threads.  Fasteners,  such  as 
bolts  and  screws,  should  be  straight  and  clean.  Fasteners  that  are  bent,  rusted  or  have 
pulled  threads  should  be  replaced.  If  such  fasteners  are  found,  it  is  recommended  to 
examine the housing and covers for such damage also. 

 

Check  the  paint.  When  removing  fasteners  the  coating  may  be  damaged.  To  prevent 
corrosion re-apply coating and paint.
