Rate of flow indicators should only be removed from the bulkmeter for maintenance if the
variation in accuracy falls below acceptable limits viz. +/- 5% FSD.
2.
It is recommended that no ’on-site’ dismantling or overhaul of the actual instrument is
attempted, and that faulty indicators be replaced.
