Section 1 - Installation NOTE: Avoid exposing the LCD for prolonged periods to direct sunlight or the life of the LCD may be reduced. 1. The meter must be installed so the arrows molded in the body of the meter point away from the pump discharge. 2. Slide two o-rings (Items 3) over threads of flow meter body (item 1) until they reach the face of the body. Wrap Teflon tape on threads of both ends of flow meter. Screw the Hose Barb Adapter (Item 2) onto discharge end of flow meter.
Changing From One Range To Another Press the “+” button to change to another range. Push the button repeatedly until the desired range is reached. The range is displayed in the lower left hand corner of the meter (“Range 1”, “Range 2”, etc). The accumulated total for each range will be displayed in the lower right hand corner. NOTE: “Range 1” is factory calibrated for water-like fluids and cannot be changed. “Ranges 2,3,4 can be user calibrated (see calibration section).
NOTE: All four ranges are preset with a calibration factor of 182.0 NOTE: If “Set Reset” button is pressed before any liquid passes through the meter when it is in calibration mode, an incorrect calibration factor will result. If this occurs, “EE” will briefly flash on the bottom line of the display. If this occurs, the meter will need to be calibrated again.
