Troubleshooting
Problem
Probable Cause Remedy
Low or High
DP Indication
Insufficient or improperly sized straight pipe
downstream and/or upstream of LFE.
Use 10 diameters of straight pipe
upstream and 5 diameters of straight
pipe downstream of LFE. Pipe size
should be same as LFE outlet size,
e.g. ½" NPT on LFE means
10
diameters of ½” pipe.
One or both differential pressure
connection taps plugged.
Clean or check instrument
connecting line.
If pulsation dampener is used, check stones
(Model 50 MR2 and 50 MC2 only) .
If plugged, replace with matched
pair
(Meriam part #A-31650).
Leak in line between LFE and readout
device .
Detect and repair.
Large-volume and/or unequal-volume
connecting lines to readout device.
Use small-volume and equal
volume connecting lines to readout
device. See Installation on page 4.
Piping reducers at inlet and/or outlet. Do not use reducers immediately
before or after LFE.
Pulsating /
Irregular Reading
Irregular flow pattern entering LFE. Use at least 10 diameters of straight
pipe upstream of LFE.
Leak in system line. Detect and repair.
