SAFETY
Explosion and Fire Hazards
• Improper grounding, poor ventilation, open flames or sparks can cause a hazardous condition and result in an
explosion or fire and cause serious injury.
• Be sure the fluid system is properly grounded. See your pump instruction manual for details.
• If there is static sparking or if you feel an electric shock while using the meter, stop dispensing immediately. Identify
and correct the problem before continuing.
• Provide fresh air ventilation. This will avoid the buildup of fumes from the fluid being dispensed.
• Do not smoke while dispensing flammable fluids.
• Keep the dispensing area free of debris including solvents, rags and spilled gasoline.
Meter Hazards
• Equipment misuse can cause the meter to rupture or malfunction and cause serious injury.
• This equipment is for professional use only.
• Read all instructions, tags and labels before operating the equipment.
• Use the equipment only for its intended purpose.
• Do NOT modify or alter the equipment.
• Do NOT leave equipment unattended while dispensing.
• Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
• Do NOT exceed the maximum working pressure level of the lowest rated system component.
• Use only extensions and nozzles that are designed for use with this equipment.
• Use only fluids and solvents that are compatible with the equipment. Read all fluid and solvent
manufacturer’s warnings.
• Tighten all fluid connections before operating this equipment.
• Do NOT stop or deflect leaks with hands, body, gloves or rags.
• Do NOT dispense towards any person or any part of the body.
• Do NOT place hands or fingers over the end of or into the dispense valve.
• Comply with all local, state and federal fire, electrical and safety regulations.
• Use of this product in a manner other than specified in this manual may result in impaired operation or damage
to equipment.
These meters are designed to dispense a wide range of chemicals. Consult the factory for chemical compatibility.

METER INSTALLATION
READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION AND HAVE A THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH METER
INSTALLATION. ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL SHOULD PERFORM METER INSTALLATION.
• Install a type 60 mesh strainer or Y or basket as close to the inlet side of the meter as possible. Strainers prevent dirt
and other fluid contaminants from impeding meter performance. Strainers require periodic cleaning, as clogged
strainers also impede meter performance. Contact your local representative for specific information, per your
specific application.

Figure 1: Meter Installation
• Turn off any associated pumps to reduce line pressure and slowly fill the line and meter with fluid before restarting
pumps. Doing so reduces the possibility of meter damage caused by errant air pressures in the line and meter.
• Make sure all pipe conforms to the same pressure output rating as the pump.
• Make sure to apply thread sealant to all pipe threads.
• Install the meter along the meter shafts in a horizontal plane (see Figure 1).
• Check for and repair leaks upon initialization of fluid flow.
METER OPERATION
Figure 2: Operation Depiction
Fluid enters the inlet port and then passes through the metering chamber. Inside the chamber, fluid forces the internal gears
to rotate before exiting through the outlet port. Each rotation of the gears displaces a specific volume of fluid. As the gears
rotate, a magnet on each end of the gear pass a reed switch in the top-mounted register's circuit board. The reed switches
send pulses to the microprocessor in the register to change the LED display segments.
Upon initialization and continuation of fluids through the line and meter, the expected pressures per flow are:
