INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The Kent Range of Domestic Meters

V100, V110 & V200

Volumetric in-line cold water meters

All Elster water meters are manufactured and tested in

accordance with either BS5728 or BSEN14154 according to

the appropriate type approval and comply with the relevant

UK Weights and Measures regulations. The meters are

suitable for cold potable water up to a temperature of 30ºC

and working pressure of 16 bar (10 bar only for V110).

If the meter has been provided with an encoded register,

please refer to the appropriate additional instructions:

1. Electronic Meter Reading (EMR) Installation Instructions

ref. 8593D9791.

2. Electronic Meter Reading (InVISION EMR) Installation Instructions

ref. 8505A2750.

The meter must be fully ﬂooded with clean cold water at all times.

No air or water/air mixtures should be allowed

to ﬂow through the meter, otherwise errors

and damage may result.

Handling

Water meters are accurate measuring devices and although of robust

construction should be treated with due care. The meters should

remain within their protective packaging until the point of installation.

Storage

Storage temperatures should remain within a range of 5 to 10ºC,

avoiding direct sunlight and heat.

Installation

The meter may be connected to horizontal, vertical or inclined pipes.

The installation should comply with BS5728 or BSEN14154, according to

the appropriate meter type approval and respect all relevant local bye-

laws. Only approved sealing materials should be used for making pipe

connections. The meter should be installed in a position to ensure it is

fully ﬂooded with clean cold water at all times, in a frost protected area.

The meter should be accessible for ease of reading and should not be

subjected to installation induced stresses or vibration. Failure to do so

may result in meter damage and leakage occurring.

Earthing caution:

National legislation and local rules in force concerning the use of water

pipes for earthing shall always be consulted and adhered to. Where

the meter installation forms part of the electrical earthing, in order to

minimise the risk to operational staff, there shall be a permanent shunt

for the water meter and its associated ﬁttings.

To enable the meter to be removed it is recommended valves be ﬁtted

upstream and downstream of the meter, together with a drain cock

between the meter and downstream valve.

Meter Installation Instructions

1. Prior to installation of the meter, new or existing inlet and outlet

pipework must be thoroughly ﬂushed free of foreign material,

using a make-up piece of pipe where the meter is to be ﬁtted.

2. Install the meter with the ﬂow direction arrow pointing in the

direction of ﬂow.

3. Tighten all meter couplings.

Start-up procedure

Commissioning:

The meter’s measuring device may be damaged if subjected to full ﬂow

conditions prior to expelling air from the pipeline.

4. With the downstream valve open, slowly open upstream valve,

until all air is expelled from the meter. Fully open the upstream

valve once all the air has been expelled.

5. Observe that the register is responding to water throughput.

6. Close downstream outlet, (meter register should stop).

7. Check all connections for leaks.

Installation Leakage

If the connections and ﬁttings show signs of leakage, carry out start-up

procedure again.

How to read your meter

Mechanical register:

The reading is from left to right.

Black numbers on white rollers denote cubic metres. White numbers

on red rollers (or white numbers on black rollers, as is the case with

InVISION) denote litres. (1000 Litres = 1 Cubic Metre).

The main display of large digits indicates billable units in cubic metres.

The smaller digits, in the red frame, indicate sub-units.

All of the display segments

are temporarily activated

for self-checking. An alert is signalled by an “E” in the alert ﬂag

ﬁeld. The type of alert can be identiﬁed by the

alert code. Refer to the operating instructions.

In the absence of an alert, the ﬁve dashes will

be seen in the alert code ﬁeld, as shown.

The Tell-tale signals that the meter is in measurement mode and can

be activated by manual rotation of the register without water ﬂowing.

The Tell-tale will continue to display for a short period after activation.

During normal operation, the display will periodically show a self-

checking and alert status mode.

Special installation and maintenance

instructions for polymer bodied meters

In addition to the instructions given in this document, special

consideration is required when installing and maintaining polymer

bodied meters.

1. The meter installation site should be protected from frost, direct sunlight

and away from heat sources.

2. The installation type and position should minimise the risk of chemical

contamination through ﬂooding or soil contact, or by run-off from

adjacent surfaces or ﬁttings.

3. Care must be taken to ensure that any chemicals used during the

installation process, such as cleaning ﬂuids or jointing ﬂuxes, are not

permitted to come into contact with the meter.

4. It is essential that stresses due to poor installation methods should not

act across the meter body. Ensure the correct gap is provided in the

pipework to ﬁt the meter length. Ensure the upstream and downstream

pipe connectors are aligned and sealing faces are parallel. Ensure

upstream and downstream pipework is ﬁrmly anchored.

5. Polymer pipe connection pieces should be used. If brass connection

pieces have to be used, they should be of a dezinciﬁcation resistant

(DZR) grade.

6. Only the provided connector seals should be used. The use of PTFE tape

or sealing ﬂuids may damage the meter.

7. For V110 and V200 polymer meters it is important that the foam

washers, provided at the end of both connection threads, remain in

place after installation.

8. The pipe connectors should be carefully threaded onto the meter by

hand to avoid cross threading. The ﬁnal tightening with a spanner

should not exceed 20Nm, avoiding damage to, or loading across the

meter body.

20724 V100, V110, V200 Inst Instr EN Master AW.indd 5

28/02/2013 13:02

9. The meter connections must be completely water tight when

the system is pressurised.

10. Once installed, the meter should not be painted or come into contact

with chemicals such as household cleaning ﬂuids.

11. When making repairs to pipework near to the meter installation,

care should be taken to prevent damage to the meter, especially when

using a heat source.
