SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Badger Meter M-Series® Model M1000 electromagnetic flow meter is intended for fluid metering in most industries
including water, wastewater, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical.
The basic components of an electromagnetic flow meter are:
• The detector, which includes the flow tube, isolating liner and measuring electrodes.
• The amplifier, which is the electronic device responsible for the signal processing, flow calculation, display and
output signals.

The construction materials of the wetted parts (liner and electrodes) should be appropriate for the specifications on the
intended type of service. We recommend that you review all of the compatibilities consistent with the specifications.
Each meter is factory tested and calibrated. A calibration certificate is included with each meter.

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Follow these guidelines when unpacking the M-Series equipment.
• If a shipping container shows any sign of damage, have the shipper present when you unpack the meter.
• Follow all unpacking, lifting and moving instructions associated with the shipping container.
• Open the container and remove all packing materials. Store the shipping container and packing
materials in the event the unit needs to be shipped for service.
• Verify that the shipment matches the packing list and your order form.
• Inspect the meter for any signs of shipping damage, scratches, or loose or broken parts.
OTE:N If the unit was damaged in transit, it is your responsibility to request an inspection report from the carrier within 48
hours. You must then file a claim with the carrier and contact Badger Meter for appropriate repairs or replacement.
• All detectors with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) liners are shipped with a liner protector on each end to maintain proper
form of the PTFE material during shipping and storage.
OTE:N Do not remove the liner protectors until you are ready to install.
• Storage: If the meter is to be stored, place it in its original container in a dry, sheltered location. Storage temperature ranges
are: – 4…140° F (– 20…60° C).
Rigging, Lifting and Moving Large Units
WHEN RIGGING, LIFTING OR MOVING LARGE UNITS, FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES:
ATTENTION
POUR LE GRÉEMENT, DU LEVAGE OU DU DÉPLACEMENT D'UNITÉS DE GRANDE TAILLE, VEUILLEZ SUIVRE CES
INSTRUCTIONS :
• DO NOT lift or move a meter by its amplifier, junction box, detector neck, or cables.
• Use a crane rigged with soft straps to lift and move meters with flow tubes that are between two inches and eight inches
(50 mm and 200 mm). Place the straps around the detector body, between the flanges, on each side of the detector.
®
Place straps between flanges.

Unpacking and Inspection
• Use the sling-rigged method to lift large detectors into a vertical position while they are still crated. Use this method to
position while they are still crated. Use this method to position large detectors vertically into pipelines.
Figure 3: Sling-Rigged Lifting Methods
• Do not lift a detector with a forklift by positioning the detector body on the forks, with the flanges extending beyond the
lift. This could dent the housing or damage the internal coil assemblies.
• Never place forklift forks, rigging chains, straps, slings, hooks or other lifting devices inside or through the detector's flow tube
to hoist the unit. This could damage the isolating liner.
Do not lift detector with forklift. Do not lift or rig lifting devices through detector.

• In regions with extremely high ambient temperatures, protect the detector.
• In cases where fluid temperature exceeds 212° F (100° C), use the remote version.

Remote Amplier Outdoor Location
The amplifier can be installed and operated outdoors. However, it must be protected from the elements, as follows:
• The ambient environment/temperature rating for the unit is – 4…140° F (–20…60° C).
• If an indoor location is within 150 feet (50 meters) of the detector, consider increasing the cable length and mounting the
amplifier indoors.
• At minimum, fabricate a roof or shield over and/or around the amplifier to protect the LCD display screen from direct
sunlight.

Meter Location, Orientation and Applications
Pipelines and Fluid Flow
Take the following precautions during installation:
• Do not install the meter on pipes with extreme pipe vibrations. If pipes are vibrating, secure the piping with appropriate
pipe supports in front of and behind the meter. If vibrations cannot be restrained, mount the amplifier in a remote
location.
• Do not install the detector close to pipeline valves, fittings or impediments that can cause flow disturbances.
• For detectors with PTFE liners, do not install the detector on suction sides of pumps.
• Do not install the detector on outlet sides of piston or diaphragm pumps. Pulsating flow can affect meter performance.
• Avoid installing the detector near equipment that produces electrical interference such as electric motors, transformers,
variable frequency, and power cables.
• Verify that both ends of the signal cables are securely fastened.
• Place power cables and signal cables in separate conduits.
• Place the meter where there is enough access for installation and maintenance tasks.
Meter Orientation
Mag meters can operate accurately in any pipeline orientation and can measure volumetric flow in forward and reverse
directions.
OTE:N A "Forward Flow" direction arrow is printed on the detector label.
Vertical Placement
Mag meters perform best when placed vertically, with liquid flowing upward and meter electrodes in a closed, full pipe.
Figure 6: Vertical placement
Vertical placement allows the pipe to remain completely full, even in low flow, low pressure applications, and it prevents
solids build-up, sediment deposit and accumulation on the liner and electrodes.
Horizontal Placement
M1000 meters are equipped with an Empty Pipe
Detection feature. If an electrode mounted in the pipe
is not covered by fluid for five seconds, the meter will

display an Empty Pipe Detection condition. The meter
will send out an error message and stop measuring
flow. When the electrode is again covered with fluid,
the error message disappears and the meter will begin
Figure 7: Horizontal placement
measuring.
When installing the meter on a horizontal pipe, mount the detector to the pipe with the flow-measuring electrode axis in a
horizontal plane (three and nine o’clock). This placement helps prevent solids build-up, sediment deposit and accumulation
on the electrodes.

Pipe Reducer Requirements
With pipe reducers, a smaller meter can be mounted in larger pipelines. This arrangement may increase low-flow accuracy.
There are no special requirements for standard, concentric, pipe reducers.
Custom fabricated pipe reducers must have an approximate slope angle of 15 degrees to minimize flow disturbances and
excessive loss of head. If this is not possible, install the custom pipe reducers as if they were fittings and install the required
amount of straight pipe
Figure 9: Pipe reducer requirements
Chemical Injection Applications
For water line applications with a chemical injection point, install the meter upstream of the injection point. This eliminates
any meter performance issues.
Figure 10: Chemical injection point upstream of meter
If a meter must be installed downstream of a chemical injection connection, the distance between the meter and the
injection point should be between 50 and 100 feet (15 and 30 meters). The distance must be long enough to allow the water
or chemical solution to reach the meter in a complete, homogeneous mixture.
Figure 11: Chemical injection point upstream of meter
If the injection point is too close, the meter senses the two different conductivities for each liquid. This will likely result in
inaccurate measurements. The injection method—spaced bursts, continuous stream of drips or liquid or gas—can also affect
downstream readings by the meter.

Partially-Filled Pipe Situations
In some locations, the process pipe may be momentarily only partially filled. Examples include: lack of back pressure,
insufficient line pressure and gravity flow applications.
To eliminate these situations:
• Do not install the meter at the highest point of the pipeline.
• Do not install the meter in a vertical, downward flow section of pipe.
• Always position the ON/OFF valves on the downstream side of the meter.

To minimize the possibility of partially-full pipe flows in horizontal, gravity or low pressure applications, create a pipe
arrangement that ensures the detector remains full of liquid at all times.
