SERIES 900
METER
Procedure for Calibration:
1. For the most accurate calibration, install the meter in the
application. Fill a container to a known volume with the
liquid to be measured.
2. If meter amount is incorrect, turn calibration screw (item
31) counterclockwise for less liquid, or clockwise for
more liquid.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until calibration is acceptable.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure safe and efficient operation, it is essential to read
each of these warnings and precautions, and to follow all
instructions listed in this manual.
1. Improper use or installation of this product can
cause serious bodily injury or death.
2. DO NOT smoke near meter or use meter near an open
flame when dispensing flammable fluids. Fire could
result.
3. Do not exceed 50 PSI / 3.5 BARS line pressure.
4. CAUTION: DO NOT INSTALL ADDITIONAL FOOT
VALVE OR CHECK VALVE DURING INSTALLATION
WITHOUT PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE. CRACKING
MAY RESULT.
5. This product should not be used for fluid transfer into
aircraft.
6. This product is not suited for use with fluids for human
consumption, including potable water.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
For accurate measurement and to prevent meter damage,
meter and piping must always be filled with liquid and free of
air. Meter should be calibrated per instructions in this manual
prior to its use.
1. Stop flow of liquid.
2. Reset register to “0”.
3. Meter is ready for use. Start flow of liquid. Do not exceed
50 PSI of line pressure.
MAINTENANCE
Meter should operate maintenance free. However, certain
liquids can dry out while in the meter housing, causing the
meter to stop. If this happens, meter should be thoroughly
cleaned (see instructions below).
Cleaning Instructions:
Run a flushing fluid through meter. For a more thorough
cleaning, disassemble meter per “ASSEMBLY /
DISASSEMBLY” section, “Meter Chamber Assembly”
subsection. Rinse all meter components. Recalibrate meter
following calibration instructions above.
Storage:
If meter is to be stored for a period of time, clean thoroughly.
This will help protect meter from damage.
INSTALLATION
Meters are furnished for horizontal piping; left to right flow.
Flow ports can be changed to any of four positions for
horizontal or vertical piping and for either direction of flow.
1. Determine direction for fluid to flow.
2. Install meter observing directional arrow on casting.
3. Remove four screws (item 28).
4. Rotate meter cover assembly (item 37) to desired
orientation.
5. Replace four screws (item 28).
CALIBRATION
The Fill-Rite Series 900 meters can be calibrated for either
U.S. gallons or liters. Calibration is required upon
installation, after disassembly, after significant wear or
when metering a different viscosity fluid. Depending on the
model, Series 900 meters are factory calibrated in either
U.S. gallons or liters using mineral spirit. Calibration must
be done between 6 and 40 GPM (23 and 151 LPM).
Meter calibration can be easily changed by following the
calibration procedure. A container of KNOWN volume will
be needed for the calibration procedure. For the 900 Series
meter, a five gallon container or larger should be used.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Counter is reading high or low:
Check calibration and recalibrate if necessary. Check for air
in product and repair air leaks. Measuring chamber or gears
could be sticking. Correct by cleaning or replacing internal
metering components.
Shaft seal leakage:
Possible causes are dirty or damaged seals. Correct by
cleaning o-ring and seat area or replacing seal.
Gasket leakage:
Correct loose gasket by tightening joints. Clean dirty gaskets
and seat area. Replace damaged gaskets. If caused by high
pressure, install pressure relief valve to allow high pressure to
bleed back to tank.
Low flow capacity:
Clean clogged meter chamber; clean or replace screens and
filters in piping.
Meter body cracks:
Install pressure relief valve to allow high pressure to bleed
back to tank.
Nutating disc breaks:
Avoid flow surge by putting shut-off valve on outlet of meter;
place meter as close as possible to pump; keep piping full of
liquid.
FLUID COMPATIBILITY
The 900 is compatible with the following fluids:
•Diesel Fuel, Gasoline, Kerosene, Mineral Spirits,
Heptane, and Hexane
The 900 is NOT compatible with the following fluids:
•Bleach, Hydrochloric Acid, Ink, Sulfuric Acid, and Salt
Water
If in doubt about compatibility of a specific fluid, contact
supplier of fluid to check for any adverse reactions to the
following wetted materials.
Ryton Aluminum Stainless Steel
Flourocarbon Buna N Polyester

PRIOR TO SERVICE, ADHERE TO FOLLOWING
INSTRUCTIONS:
Meters must be triple-rinsed and accompanied by a
note indicating the chemicals which have been
pumped through the unit. Meters not adhering to these
specifications may be refused service.

ASSEMBLY & DISASSEMBLY
Meter consists of a chamber housing, measuring chamber,
gear train, counter assembly and cover. Meter can be
completely disassembled without disturbing piping.
Counter Assembly
For access to counter assembly, remove reset knob (item
15) by grasping edges and pulling firmly. Remove two
screws (item 14) and lift bezel (item 11) off. Remove two
screws (item 12) to detach counter face (item 13). Remove
two screws (item 9) to extract counter (item 10).
Reassemble by reversing procedure.
Meter Chamber Assembly
To expose meter chamber assembly, gear train and seal,
remove four screws (item 28). Meter chamber assembly
consists of upper and lower chambers, a nutating disc and
four screws. Meter chamber assembly (item 3) can be
dislodged by removing four screws (item 5). Reassemble by
reversing procedure.
If replacement of any components of the meter chamber
assembly is required, the complete assembly must be
replaced due to the precise method of its construction. This
assures a proper fit and a correctly operating chamber.
Gear Train and Seal
To disassemble gear train and seal, remove two screws
(item 8) and gear frame (item 6). Remove cluster gear (item
18), washer (item 19), and shaft (item 17). Remove drive
gear (item 24) and washers (item 23) by rotating and pulling
drive gear. Remove O-ring seal (item 25).
When reassembling seal, lubricate O-ring with oil or
petroleum jelly and replace in cover. Place washer on drive
gear shaft. Carefully rotate and push shaft through O-ring
and cover to prevent damage to O-ring. Shaft must then be
guided into pinion bevel (item 27) if counter has not been
removed. Replace remaining parts to complete assembly
by reversing disassembly procedure.
REPAIR
Meters needing repair should be taken to an authorized repair
shop. Meters must be thoroughly triple-rinsed before being
taken in for repair.
