manual abstract
Finish piping to be plumb and true. 2. Polysulfone and other exotic plastics cannot tolerate P.V.C. glue and pipe dope. Even the fumes can cause crazing. 3. Use teflon tape for threaded joints. 4. Make up assembly and fit pipes, then: remove F.M. after glue fumes are vented out. 5. Meter cannot support attached pipes. 6. Excessive vibration may cause float to give poor reading or cause possible fracture. 7. Wall, floor, and ceiling mounts to be carefully aligned and sturdy. A support should be at top and bottom of meter. See drawing. 8. Hand tighten union nuts. No wrenches. 9. Protect meter from ultra violet (UV) rays. 10. VALVES - avoid system that will impose a sudden burst of flow to the meter. Such a burst will cause the float to impact the guide assembly with destructive force. Magnet, solenoid, or other quick opening valves cannot be used unless meter is protected against sudden burst of flow. 11. Failure to comply VOIDS WARRANTY!

Page 4 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Remember that you are installing an instrument. Adapters and fittings should be tightened only enough to prevent leaking. Over tightening may damage the o-ring seals and threaded fittings. Never hold the meterbody with pliers or similar tools that may scratch. Never allow the flowmeter to support the weight of related pipe or tubing. Be certain the meterbody is properly aligned with existing plumbing. Misalignment will put excessive stress on the meterbody and may result in damage and a decrease in the maximum pressure. If in doubt regarding proper plumbing procedures, consult a licensed plumber. The flowmeter must be installed in an exact vertical plane to ensure accuracy. Polysulfone is adversely affected by ultraviolet light. Protect the flowmeter from direct sunlight. Always use teflon® tape thread sealant. DO NOT use pipe dope compounds as these products may cause crazing and cracking on the meterbody. Do not use solvent based glued (such as PVC cement) while the flowmeter is fully installed. When using these glues, remove the meterbody until the glue has cured. Then purge the system before installing the unit. Never attempt to solder brass fittings while the flowmeter is fully installed. The heat required for soldering can damage the flowmeter. Caution should be exercised when using ball type valves. In some cases when the valve is opened the float can slam to the top of the meter causing damage. This “Water Cannon” effect is actually exceeding the maximum pressure and is not covered under warranty. Your flowmeter had been designed to be virtually maintenance free. Should your unit need occasional cleaning, use a mild soap and soft bottle brush. Be sure to note the floats “UP” position before disassembling the meter. Page 5 Caution: Follow these instructions to avoid failure. Danger: Wear eye protection when installing or removing flowmeter. Ceiling 1. Polysulfone and other exotic plastics cannot tolerate PVC Glue and /or pipe dope. even fumes can cause crazing. 2. If you are installing your flowmeter to a glued pipe configuration, install flowmeter after all glued fittings are dried and lines are purged of all fumes. Use Teflon® tape (or similar) for the flowmeters threaded adapters. Hand tighten union nuts. No wrenches. 3. Wall, floor, and ceiling mounts are to be carefully aligned and sturdy. Wall, floor, and ceiling supports are recommended as needed. 4. Valves - Avoid a system that will impose a sudden burst of flow to the meter. Such a burst will cause the float to impact the float stop with destructive force. Magnet, solenoid, or other quick opening valves cannot be used unless meter is protected against sudden bursts of flow. 5. The maximum working pressure should not...
