1. Record inside diameter (ID). Ensure the actual
pipe ID matches the pipe ID shown on the
match, refer to p59.
2. Record up/downstream straight-pipe
requirements based on Pipe ID and meter
style (insertion or inline). [refer to p. 19]
3. a. The Flow Direction Indicator must point in
b. The housing can be rotated for a better
view of the meter's display. Note that the
2 set screws must be loosened before the
housing will turn. [refer to p. 23]
4. Ensure correct probe depth setting. If using 1
½" size pipe, please see note on p. 22.
5. Open the housing. If needed, the orientation
of display can be rotated in 90° increments for
a better view.
[refer to p. 24 for more information]
6. Ensure power wiring [p. 32] and 4-20mA
wiring [p. 33 - p. 34] properly connected.
[refer to Wiring section p. 30 for more
information]
7. Ensure remote wiring is correct if remote
option ordered.
[refer to p. 40 - p. 41 for more
