This manual contains information concerning the installation, operation and maintenance of the M-Series 7500S Sanitary
flow meters. To ensure proper performance of the meters covered, the instructions given in this manual should be thoroughly
understood. Retain the manual in a readily accessible location for future reference.
OPERATION
The 7500S Mag meter is intended for use in fluid metering applications for process batching where approved sanitary
equipment is required.
The 7500S Mag meter is a stainless steel flow tube with an internal isolating lining. Two electromagnetic coils are located
outside the flow tube, diametrically opposed to each other and protected by a stainless steel housing. Two electrodes,
inserted into the flow tube, are positioned "flush" with the internal diameter of the tube and perpendicular to the coils. The
coils are energized by a pulsed DC voltage provided by the electronic converter, and a magnetic field is generated across
the flow tube section. According to Faraday's law, when conductive liquid flows through this magnetic field of the meter,
a voltage is generated in the liquid. This voltage is directly proportional to the liquid flow velocity, and therefore to the
actual volumetric flow rate of the liquid. The electronic converter measures this voltage, processes the signal and provides
two digital pulse outputs, scalable to the desired volumetric value. These digital pulse outputs can be connected to a batch
controller, a totalizer display unit for monitoring purposes, or to both devices simultaneously. The 7500S operation is not
affected by suspended solids in the liquid. Variations of liquid temperature, viscosity or density have no influence in its
principle of operation. A set of convenient, field proven pulse scaler rotary switches are provided for easy and straight-forward
batch accuracy compensation.

PRODUCT UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Upon receipt of the product, perform the following unpacking and inspection process:
If the product package is damaged, request the carrier to be present when unpacking the product. If the product is damaged
and the carrier is not present, request an inspection by the carrier’s agent within 48 hours of delivery and file a claim with the
carrier. A claim for equipment damage in transit is the sole responsibility of the purchaser.
Carefully open the shipping package and follow any instructions marked on the exterior. Remove all packing material and
carefully remove the product from the package.
Retain an undamaged package and all packing material for possible use in reshipment or storage.
Visually inspect the product and applicable accessories for any physical damage such as scratches, loose or broken parts, or
any other sign of damage that may have occurred during shipment.
Storage
If the meter is not to be installed right away, store it in the original container in a dry, sheltered location. Storage temperature:
-4…158° F (-20…70° C).

Meter Installation
METER INSTALLATION
Mag meters can operate accurately in any pipe line orientation. However, the most recommended installation position is
vertical piping, with the liquid flowing upward.
Figure 2: Vertical pipe mounting
This installation practice ensures two objectives:
• The pipe remains completely full of liquid, even at low flow, low pressure applications with a discharge to the atmosphere.
• Solid build-up or sediments that could be part of the process fluid will not deposit or accumulate on the liner
and/or electrodes.
The model 7500S meter is designed to measure flow in one direction only. Carefully observe the "forward flow" label attached
to the meter body and install the meter accordingly.
If horizontal piping orientation is required, the detector should be mounted in a position at which the electrodes axis will
remain in an horizontal plane. See Figure 3.
Figure 3: Horizontal installation
Page 4 October 2014MAG-UM-00366-EN-03
Meter Installation
Piping Conguration
Appropriate piping arrangements should be made to ensure the meter is not exposed to extreme pipe vibrations. The piping
arrangements should include appropriate pipe supports.
For optimum accuracy performance, sufficient inlet and outlet straight pipe runs are required. Three diameters of straight
pipe are required on the inlet side of the meter, and two diameters are required on the outlet side, measured from the center
of the meter body. See Figure 4 for additional requirements.
Avoid installing the detector close to flow disturbance generating valves and fittings.
Do not install the detector in the outlet side of piston or diaphragm type pumps. Avoid all pipe locations where the flow is
pulsating. Avoid installing the detector in the suction side of any pumps; possible creation of a vacuum can affect the meter
performance or cause damage to the PTFE liner.

Meter Installation
Partially Full Pipe Situations
M-series meters are designed to operate in closed, full pipes.
It is relatively common to encounter situations where the process pipe will remain momentarily partially filled due to certain
hydraulic conditions. Examples of this include discharge to the atmosphere (lack of back pressure), insufficient line pressure
and gravity flow applications.
To eliminate the negative performance effects, a few guidelines should be observed (see Figure 5):
• Avoid installing the detector in the highest point of the pipe line.
• Do not install the detector in vertical, downward flow sections of the pipe.
• On-Off valves should always be located on the downstream side of the detector.
• Select the recommended vertical orientation when ever possible.
• Make sure the selected detector size complies with the application flow rate. Do not oversize pipe line and detector size.

Electrical Connections
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The M-Series 7500S electronic converter is enclosed in a water tight (NEMA 4X) stainless steel enclosure. A pair of 1/2" NPT
water-tight cord grips is provided for the electrical connections.
MPORTANTI
Do not remove the cord grips unless you replace them with water-tight conduit adapters or similar connectors. Failure to comply
with this requirement will void the warranty.
To access the electrical connection, remove the cover of the amplifier by loosening the four mounting screws. For all wiring,
use 18 or 20 AWG wire
Upon assembly and installation of the cable with cord grip, make sure the cord grip is tight. In addition, to prevent possibility
of moisture entering the enclosure, especially during a washdown operation, loop the cable down before entering the cord
grip. See Figure 6. If the meter is installed in a vertical pipe such that the cord grips are now on the top of the assembly, it is
recommended that a silicone sealant be put around the cord grips after installation to further assist in prevention of moisture
to the inside of enclosure during a washdown operation.

CALIBRATION
The Model 7500S is tested and calibrated with a test configuration included with each meter when shipped. If recalibration of
your system accuracy may be required, the Model 7500S provides a feature, using four rotary switches, that permits a simple
recalibration procedure.

Calibration
Recalibration Procedure
If it is necessary to recalibrate the meter, this can be done by changing the scale factor which is set on the four rotary switches
located in the upper left hand corner. See Figure 9 on page 8. To make this change, follow the following step.
1. Determine the exact quantity of uid that actually passed through the meter by using a calibrated volumetric container or
by weighing the container.
2. Note the volume of uid indicated by meter.
3. Note the current scale factor on the four rotary switches.
4. Use the following formula to calculate the new scale factor for recalibration:
Qty delivered
Qty on meter
X
Old scale
factor
New scale
factor
5. Enter new scale factor on the rotary switches.
6. Rerun test to verify that the recalibration is correct.
Example:
You have a 3" size meter in your installation. You run a test batch quantity of 238 gallons. The totalizer on the meter indicates
203 gallons. Your present scale factor on the four rotary switches is .2533. See Table 1 for preset scale factors.
