Maintenance and Repairs
If flowmeter readings appear erratic, check the flowmeter for wear or debris.
Under normal operation with non-abrasive fluids, flowmeters can provide
years of service without repairs. If a flowmeter is exposed to abrasive fluids
or long periods of over-range flow rates, an annual check is recommended.
Removing the Meter from the Pipeline
1. Remove all pressure from the line.
Remove the magnetic pickup (Figure 5, Page 13) to avoid damaging it.
Remove one or more of the flange bolts.
Loosen the remaining flange bolt nuts to allow clearance for the meter.
If additional “spreader” nuts were installed, tighten them to help free
the meter.
Lift the meter from between the pipeline flanges, using an installation
handle if necessary (Figure 3, page 8).
