Installation
Check the Electrical Grounding
WARNING
Proper electrical grounding of your system is
essential. For your safety, read the warning sec-
tion, FIRE, EXPLOSION, OR ELECTRIC SHOCK
HAZARD, on page 2.
Have a qualified electrician check the electrical
grounding continuity between the flow meter sensor
and a true earth ground. If the resistance is greater
than 25 ohms, check the cable ground connection; re-
fer to the Fig. 2 wiring schematic. Reconnect the
ground shield or replace the cable. Do not operate the
system until the problem is corrected.
Remote Monitoring
The flow meter will send an output pulse for each gear
tooth that passes the sensor. The actual K-factor for
your meter is marked on the data sheet included with
the meter. The approximate flow volume per one pulse
(K-factor) is shown at right.
METER MODEL NO.

The flow meters are designed for use with the Graco
PPD 200 Remote Monitors. See Accessories for part
numbers and descriptions.
See Fig. 2 to connect the meter to a remote monitor
with a supply voltage b12 to +24 VDC in a
non-hazardous area.
