MISC - 1: DWYER FLOW METER SERVICE
The mechanical flow meter, can be opened for cleaning if it becomes difficult to read or
if the little ball gets stuck.
The flow meter will come completely apart for cleaning;
1. First remove the meter from the panel (which may require the plumbing fittings to
be removed) by removing the brackets that hold it to the gauge panel.
2. On the very top of the meter is a clear plastic key that slides into place holding the
top cap of the assembly in place. Use a small flat bladed screwdriver to pull the key
out..
3. Hold the meter upright (or the ball will fall out) and then lever the top cap off. It is
hard to see but there is a small notch in the back of the cap where you can put the
small screwdriver and begin to pry the cap off. The cap will move easily so if you to
apply too much pressure you are likely pushing on the wrong place.
4. Invert the flow meter and catch the ball as it falls out.
5. You can use tooth paste or plastic window polish to polish the inside using a small
bottle brush or a Q - tip.
6. Clean the ball and give it a few coats of wax.
7. If the o - rings are damaged or the unit has been leaking, install new o - rings using a
little silicone grease to ease assembly. These are standard o - rings and should be
available at most larger auto parts or bearing stores. Reassemble in reverse.
