INSTALLATION
Meter Components and Features
Below is a QS100-10 meter with labeled components. Familiarize yourself
with the meter before installation.
Figure 2
Preferred Installation Layout
Provide a straight pipe run of at least 10 times the pipe's diameter (Ø)
upstream (inlet end) of the meter, and at least 5 times the pipe's diameter (Ø)
downstream (outlet end) of the meter. The word “FLOW” and the arrow
embossed on the coverplate denotes the flow direction.
Couplers or unions can be used to install the meter in the piping system;
however, for ease of future maintenance or repair of the piping system, it is
recommended that unions be used. Unions are shown in all graphics.
For best results, coverplate and wires should be facing up.
