METERS, formerly Fluid
METERS meet your most
Principle of Operation
Positive Displacement meters have a measuring chamber,
where inlet & outlet are separated by rotors, a rotating element or sliding vanes. As the liquid passes through the flow
meter, it causes the rotors/element/vanes to turn, which
forms the basis for volumetric measurement.
The Oval Gear metering principle is based on two elliptical
(oval) gears, which turn on center on two horizontal shafts
inside a measuring chamber formed by two overlapping cylinders. The oval gears have meshing teeth along their entire circumference, ensuring that the gears will maintain correct position in relation to each other at all times, without the
use of timing gears.
The volume being transferred from the inlet to the outlet side
(= volume measured), forms between the oval gear and the
side of the measuring chamber, alternately in the upper and
the lower half of the measuring chamber. In a full 360° rotation of the gears, four such known volumes are released to
the downstream side of the flow meter.
The flow meter is 100% gland-less with static O-ring seals
only. Internal magnets are detected by a sensor (pulser)
mounted in flow meter case. The pulser generates an electrical on/off signal, which can be used to drive a signal conditioner or an electronic register.
With precision machining and close internal tolerances, the
slippage is minimal for superior linearity (accuracy) over a
broad turn-down ratio. Oval gear meters are largely unaffected by changes in liquid viscosity. In TM Series meters
we expect a shift of no more than 2-4% due to variations in
liquid viscosity between 1 and 100 cSt. As the viscosity
increases further, there is no noticeable change.
To ensure optimum linearity (accuracy), TM Series meters
should be field calibrated correct for individual meter variations, liquid viscosity and local system/operational factors.

Fluid Compatibility
FPP Meter flow meters are available in anodized aluminum
and stainless steel, with a variety of rotor types and seals, to
ensure compatibility with a broad range of liquids. If in doubt
about compatibility with a a specific fluid, please refer to
FPP Technical Manual. If that publication does not provide
a clear answer, please consult with your authorized FPP
Meter distributor, or Customer Care at the factory.
While most refined petroleum products can be handled with
the same flow meter, some require different rotors and/or
seals. Do not change service liquid, without consulting with
your authorized FPP Meter distributor.

S.S.
TM Series meters are rated for use on liquids with temperature in -40ºF/+300ºF (-40ºC/+150ºC) range. This temperature rating applies to the flow meter only.
Electronic signal conditioner, totalizer or register attached to
the flow meter will have a different rating, which may differ at
both the low and high end of the range (refer to manual for
electronic components). When that is the case, the electronic component must be installed remote from the flow
meter.

Actual capacity depends upon liquid lubricity, viscosity and
operating temperature. Normal turn-down is 10:1 from nominal (maximum) value shown. Optimum performance is between 50% and 85% of nominal capacity.
When the viscosity exceeds 200 cSt, maximum flow rate is
restricted, but the flow meter will have satisfactory linearity
(accuracy) down to 2-3% of nominal capacity.
To determine model maximum capacity on higher viscosity
liquids, find the flow meter coefficient for maximum liquid
viscosity in table below, and multiply nominal capacity with
this factor.

TM Series, Start-Up & Operation
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure that all necessary safety precautions have been
taken, including proper clothing, personal safety equipment
and fire safety equipment if required.
Before Start-Up of the Flow Meter, make certain that:
1. The meter is properly mounted, secured and piped.
2. All connections are tight.
3. All bleed and drain valves are closed.
4. Do NOT smoke near meter, or use meter near an open
flame, when metering flammable liquids. Fire or Explosion could result.
5. This meter is not intended for use on liquids, which require 3A Sanitary equipment for human consumption. It
may be used on edible liquids, which do not spoil easily,
such as vegetable oils, liquid sweeteners & similar.
Install the Flow Meter and Accessories in compli-
ance with all applicable Local, State & Federal
Construction, Electrical and Safety Codes.
Installation
Positive Displacement meters are designed to operate full
of liquid. The meter should be installed in a manner, so
that it remains full of liquid at all times.
The flow meter is not designed to operate on air, but the
design and materials of construction allow for operation
on vapor for short periods of time without damage to the
oval gears or flow meter internals.
Hydraulic shock can be harmful to flow meter and other
system components. Consideration to eliminate hydraulic
shock should be given in selection of pump and design of
the piping system.
The flow meter can operate with liquid going Left-to-Right,
Right-to-Left or Vertical Up, but it must be installed with
rotor shafts in horizontal position (= with vertical end
covers). Failure to observe this will impact negatively on
flow meter accuracy.
Protective caps installed in flow meter flanges prior to
shipment should remain in place until you are ready to
install in the piping system.
It is recommended that a Strainer be installed upstream
of each flow meter, to prevent damage from foreign matter, such as welding slag, pipe scale or parts breaking off
other equipment.
Allow adequate space for removal of strainer basket
cover, so strainer basket can be cleaned.
OPERATING TEMPERATURE
TM Series meters are rated for operation from
-40°F/+300°F (-40°C/+150°C). However:
They are not suitable for cryogenic service.
When temperature exceeds +120°F (+50°C), ‘K’ ro-
tors must be used, and pressure rating is reduced.
Refer to FPP Technical Manual for details.
OPERATING PRESSURE
TM Series meters Maximum non-shock Operating
Pressure is (see position 11 in the P/No.):
Code F 400 PSI (= 10.3 BAR) at 100°F
Code K 1500 PSI (= 103 BAR) (+38°C).
Code L 2500 PSI (= 175 BAR)
The flow meter should never be operated in excess of
this pressure. Care should be taken to eliminate thermal and hydraulic shock conditions, so that system
pressure never exceeds the flow meter’s Maximum
Working Pressure rating.
Flush the system to remove all debris, scale and welding
slag prior to flow meter installation. If this is not possi-
ble, temporarily remove rotors (oval gears), and reinstall
after the system has been flushed.
Apply pipe compound to male threads. Do NOT use Tef-
lon tape.
Avoid pipe stress when installing the flow meter.
When installing the flow meter, consider future mainte-
nance of both flow meter and accessories. The meter
can be serviced in place, provided block (isolation) valves
are included, and adequate space allowed.
In critical installations a by-pass line is recommended,
so flow can continue while flow meter is being serviced.
Thermal relief valves are recommended, and should be
installed whenever it is possible to block (isolate) the flow
meter between two valves. The pressure rise in a closed
system, from just a few degrees increase in temperature,
can be many times normal working pressure.
Connections for calibration should be provided during
installation. An easy means for diverting flow into a calibration vessel (or through a Master Meter) should be considered.

Start-Up, Operation & Calibration
Start-Up & Operation
Very slowly fill the system with liquid, to avoid operating the
flow meter on air or vapor. This can be accomplished in the
following manner:
1. Throttle the meter inlet valve, and allow the system to fill
slowly by gravity.
2. Crack open the outlet valve. Start the pump, and then
slowly crack open the inlet valve, filling the meter slowly
before fully opening the inlet and outlet valves.
In normal operations:
Avoid sudden changes in temperature.
Avoid sudden changes in flow rate.
Gradually increase or decrease the flow rate.
Flow Meter Calibration
It is recommended that written records be maintained on all
flow meters. These records should include:
Supplier and Service Department phone number.
Date of installation.
Details of maintenance performed.
Flow meter initial K Factor (number of pulses per unit of
volume).
Date & result of each re-calibration, with changes in flow
meter K Factor.
TM Series flow meters are given a functional ’Pass or Fail’
test prior to shipment, but written records of this test are not
maintained. The nominal K Factor shown on flow meter
cover is an average value, which should be used as a starting point when field calibrating on actual liquid of operation.
Nominal K Factor on 1 cP liquid
These values are subject to individual flow meter variation,
as well as expected fluctuation due to liquid viscosity (see
above).

Frequency
TM Series meters are not intended for use in Custody
Transfer service, so Weights&Measures regulations should
not apply. If local authorities issue regulations for non-W&M
flow meters, such regulations must be observed.
If user is ISO9000 certified, user ISO standards will indicate
frequency of re-calibration for instrumentation. Those rules
should be observed. If no regulations or standards apply,
our recommendations are:
A. Calibrate immediately after installation.
B. Re-calibrate after 15-30 days.
C. Re-calibrate after 180 days and again after 360 days.
After the run-in calibration (B) and follow-up calibrations (C),
it is possible to evaluate degree of change under normal
operating conditions. Based on values found, and total volume being metered under normal operating conditions, decide whether a 6, 12 or possibly 24 month schedule should
be adopted.
Procedures & Methods
Flow meters used in systems where the flow rate can fluctuate, should be tested at minimum, intermediate & maximum
flow rates. In non-W&M service, a flow meter always operating at a steady flow rate, can be tested at that flow only.
All tests should be repeated 3 times to confirm repeatability.
All tests should be of at least 60 second duration, to minimize effect of flow meter error during start-up & shut-down.
After calibrating a known volume (X) into an accurate
prover, or through a master meter, compare with register
reading (Y) and calculate correction:
X-
X
x 100
= % correction
When re-calibration has established that a correction is
required, change flow meter K Factor:
When prover/master meter reading is less than flow
meter register reading, add percentage calculated to
the original K Factor..
When prover/master meter reading is more than flow
meter register reading, subtract percentage calculat-
ed from the original K Factor.
Accuracy curves of individual flow meters vary some. Also,
the accuracy curve of all flow meters will shift due to variations in liquid viscosity; perhaps as much as 3-4% from 1 cSt
to 100 cSt. The accuracy curve will not shift significantly at
higher viscosities, even if the actual operating liquid has
viscosities up to 500,000 cSt.
Since we cannot test on actual fluid of operation, it is
the responsibility of the buyer to field calibrate in place
of service on actual operating liquid.
Circulate product through the flow meter for a few
minutes. Then perform at least 3 more tests, to confirm
flow meter accuracy & repeatability.
If the flow meter does not repeat, it will likely require a
new set of rotors (oval gears).
Before ordering new gears, inspect the measuring
chamber for scratches or wear. If the measuring
chamber is scratched or scored beyond what can be
smoothed with emery paper, the flow meter should be
replaced.
Finally, enter date and % correction on the permanent
flow meter record.

Trouble Shooting & Service
Prior to opening or disassembly of any flow meter, all internal pressure mu st be relieved and all liquid must be
drained. This must be done in accordance with applicable company and local codes & ordinances.
Make sure that all necessary safety precautions h ave been taken, including proper clo thing, personal safety equipment and fire safety equipment if required.
No Flow
Blocked strainer basket. Clean the basket.
Faulty or non-functioning pump. Repair pump.
Valve stuck in closed position. Check and repair valves.
Flow meter ‘frozen’ due to build-up of chemical salts (or
frozen water) inside the measuring chamber. Clean the
flow meter (see page 1.8), and inspect for damage.
Meter jammed on a particle that has passed through a
damaged strainer basket. Remove particle and replace
rotors if necessary, replace strainer basket.
Reduced Flow Rate
Strainer basket partially blocked. Clean the basket.
Pump not functioning correctly. Repair pump.
Valve stuck in partially closed position. Check valves and
repair.
Meter rotors (oval gears) partially ‘salted’ with chemical
deposits, slowing the movement. Clean the meter (see
page).
Product Flows, but the register does not record
Check power supply to the register.
Check the connection between the pulser and the elec-
tronic register.
Check pulser output (see page 1.8). Replace if needed.
If product is flowing, and the flow meter is generating a
pulse signal, the problem is in the electronic register.
Please refer to the manual for the electronic register.
Product Flows, register does not record correctly
If error factor is constant, the flow meter is fine. The likely
cause is either:
Incorrect K Factor in the electronic register. Re-
calibrate the meter and correct the K Factor.
A constant problem with air getting into the system.
Review system design and control valves.
If the error is random, the likely cause is either:
Poor cable connections (insulation not trimmed, or
stray strands getting close to incorrect contacts). This
can be signal conditioner (if included) or where pulse
signal is connected to the register. Inspect and correct
connections as necessary.
Valve leaking, allowing a portion of the system to drain.
Check & repair valves.
An intermittent problem with air in the system, com-
bined with inadequate air elimination. Review system
design and control valves.
Interference from other electrical equipment nearby.,
possibly combined with sub-standard cables.
Breaking Teeth on Rotors (Oval Gears)
This is a sign of hydraulic shock conditions in the system.
Common sources:
Starting or stopping flow too rapidly. Replace dam-
aged components and correct operational practices.
Pump by-pass not adjusted properly. Re-adjust as
necessary.
Leakage from Cover
The seals (and possibly end covers) have been damaged
due to excessive pressure. There are two possible sources:
Starting or stopping flow too rapidly. Replace dam-
aged components and correct operational practices.
The flow meter is in a system, where it can be isolated
between two valves. Add a Thermal Relief Valve to
bleed off excess pressure when the temperature rises.
Installation, Maintenance & Service must be performed
by personnel:
A. Qualified to work on this type of equipment.
B. Familiar with all applicable local codes and ordi-
nances covering the type of service, where the flow
meter is used (gasoline, LPG, etc.).
Avoid pipe strain and stress when making flow meter repairs. The weight of the pipe and the flow meter must be
supported independently. This allows the flow meter to be
serviced without affecting the alignment of piping.
Avoid prying or exerting heavy pressure on precision parts,
as this can affect the performance of the flow meter. Assure
that all machined parts are free of burrs and nicks. Stone all
machined surfaces if necessary to remove burrs.
Always coat bolt threads with an anti-seize or an appropriate
lubricant. This prevents thread damage, and assures that
proper torque values are applied during re-assembly. If
threads are damaged, repair using inserts.
Relieve All Internal Pressure Prior to Opening
Drain Liquid prior to Working on Flow Meter
Rinse with Neutral Liquid
prior to Seasonal Storage
Triple Rinse with Neutral Liquid
prior to Shipment for any reason.

Easy Identification of replacement sensors
Black anodized housing is for
TM04 & TM06 models.
Metallic finish is for use in
TM02 & TM03 models
Installation
Do NOT remove the sensor (pulser) from the flow meter,
unless trouble shooting has indicated a problem in the sen-
sor. To remove the sensor, loosen the lock nut on the sensor retainer (sensor well in model TM06). The sensor can
now be pulled out.
CAUTION
If the sensor is
connected incorrectly,
it will be damaged
beyond repair.
1 . 8
To install a new sensor, look at the top of the replacement
sensor. An internal PC board is visible through the epoxy
(usually protrudes slightly from the epoxy). This PC board
must be aligned parallel with a line drawn between flow
meter inlet and outlet.

Trouble Shooting the Sensor
There are three components to be examined to determine
why there is no pulse count coming from the flow meter:
1. Flow meter with magnets in the oval gears.
Verify that liquid is flowing.
Verify that sensor (pulser) cable is intact.
2. The sensor (pulser)
Remove the sensor from the flow meter. Expose
the black & white leads (in dual signal sensors, also
the green lead). This can be done at a convenient
junction, or at the register.
Use an volt meter to measure the voltage between
the white & black leads. It should be nearly equal to
the power supply voltage provided on the red lead.
Pass a magnet across the tip of the sensor. The
voltage must switch to nearly zero (less than 0.2 V).
If the magnet does not actuate the sensor, the sensor has failed.
For two channel sensors, repeat this test across
black & green leads.
3. The counter (or receiving instrument)
If liquid is flowing, and the sensor reacts to a mag-
net, the problem is in the counter/receiving instrument (or possibly in a signal conditioner installed
between the sensor & counter/receiving instrument.
Please refer to the manual for the this device.
See Control Drawing on page 1.10

Optional Sensors (pulsers)
Reed Switch
This sensor is strictly for use with battery powered stand
-alone registers, where no external power source is avai l-
able. If external power is available, Hall Effect pulser
should be used - even when the register is battery powered.
In so called ‘pulse meter’ service, either Hall Effect or
Quadrature Hall Effect pulser must be used - depending
upon the requirements of the receiving instrument.
The Reed Switch sensor (pulser) consists of a set of contacts, hermetically sealed in a glass tube, protecting the contacts from dirt and corrosion of the the outside world. Contacts are actuated by an external magnetic field, provided by
permanent magnets inside the rotors.
This is a mechanical device with a finite life. To extend pulser
life, flow meters with Reed Switch pulser are only available in
‘low resolution’ version.
When the pulser starts to wear out, it rarely fails instantly.
Instead it starts to miss pulses. We recommend that the flow
meter be recalibrated on a regular basis. Once pulser failure
is detected, establish a schedule for pulser replacement as a
matter of normal maintenance.
Contact Rating:

Trouble Shooting the Sensor
CAUTION: Do NOT use an Ohm-meter to test
the reed switch sensor (pulser).
Remove the sensor from the flow meter, and expose the
red & black leads. This can be done at a convenient junction, or at the register.
Measure the voltage between the red & black leads. It
should be equal to the voltage provided by the register.
Pass a magnet across the tip of the sensor, the voltage
should switch to zero (less than 0.2 V).
If the magnet cannot activate switching of the sensor, then
the sensor has failed and must be replaced. There are no
alignment requirements for the Reed Switch sensor.

Optional Quadrature Signal
When a TM Series flow meter is to be used with an electronic
register requiring dual channel signal (Quadrature signal), the
SCL signal conditioner is used. This produces a simulated
Quadrature signal for the register, which will record volume
correctly, but it does not permit detection of reverse flow.
The SCL is voltage specific. The standard version can be
field selected for 5VDC regulated, or 6-12VDC non-regulated.
An optional version is available for 24VDC service.
The SCL can be mounted:
In a separate enclosure inside the case of the primary
register (such as the EMR
3
electronic register).
In a NEMA 4X enclosure, either mounted on the flow
meter, or installed remote.
In a NEMA 7/4X enclosure, either mounted on the flow
meter, or installed remote.

PIA-300 Pulse Isolator, Amplifier & Splitter (optional component)
The purpose of the PIA-300 is to provide:
Protection and properly interface the signal from the Hall
Effect sensor (pulser) to customer supplied electronics
(totalizer, register, PLC, etc.).
Supply SOURCE signal in place of standard sink.
Amplification of output signal, so it can be transmitted
over greater distances.
Two identical output signals, which can be sent to two
different destinations.
This component can be supplied either unmounted (as an
encapsulated circuit pack), or installed in a variety of optional enclosures. In some cases it can be mounted internally in
the remote receiving instrument.

When making a choice betw een mechanical & electronic register , consider that the electr onic system has lower maintenance requirements,
and it is alw ay s more accurate than the equivalent mechanical system due to less drag on the flow meter.
For a single flow meter, the mechanical register is usually the low er initial cost. For 2-3 flow meters in one system/installation, the cost is
usually comparable (w ithin 5-10%). For 4 or more f low meters in one system, the electronic s olution is usually the low er initial cost.
