NOTE

The  meter  installation  should  include  a  valve 
downstream  from  the  meter  to  prevent  water  loss 
during meter servicing or removal from the line.

NOTE

The system should be  installed so that the meter can be 
read at a convenient outdoor location. For meters that 
are  located  indoors,  a  remote  reading  system  is 
recommended.  This  eliminates  access  problems  and 
avoids  customer  complaints  concerning  strangers 
entering the home. 

WARNING

Before  starting  any  disassembly  operation,  the  water 
line must be depressurized. Removing a meter that is 
under line pressure can result in serious personal injury  

Ÿ

The meter is a precise measuring device and although robust in design 
and  construction,  should  be  handled,  transported,  and  installed  with 
care. The meter should remain within its protective packaging to the point 
of installation. 

Ÿ

Storage temperatures shall remain within the range of -20°C to +60°C , 
avoiding direct sunlight. 

Ÿ

Special  fittings  and  accessories  are  available  to  provide  easier  meter 
installation and proper alignment. 

Ÿ

All meters should be installed according to local standards or water utility 
regulations.

Ÿ

Close the meter's inlet-side valve. 

Ÿ

Open a faucet and wait until water flow stops to depressurize the system. 
Do not remove the meter until the flow stops. 

Ÿ

Check valves and make necessary repairs to shut-off valve or inlet side 
valve if necessary. 

Ÿ

For proper sealing, use new meter gaskets when changing the meter. 

Ÿ

Do not use thread sealant, pipe dope or meter coupling threads, meters 
are sealed by the gasket only. 

Ÿ

Close  the  meter's  outlet-side  valve.  Protect  the  floor  below  the  meter 
against potential spills or leaks that could occur. Protect the coupling area 
from debris so that the new meter will not be contaminated or damaged.
