About FPP Meters

We thank you for purchasing an FPP Meter for liquid measurement service. FPP Meters, formerly Fluid Power Prod-

ucts, is now a trade name of Tuthill Transfer Systems. FPP was established in 1980. Since its inception, the company has been dedicated to manufacturing cost-effective, high performance flow metering devices for petroleum, industrial, commercial and municipal service.

Our facilities include computerized order entry and inventory control, so that you are assured of accurate and prompt deliveries. Furthermore, our production personnel ensure that each order, regardless of size, receives individual attention.

Constant attention to new product development and production design, our high standards of manufacture and final

testing are the reasons why FPP Meters meet your most

demanding requirements. With the ‘Waveform’ oval gear (2003 patent) meter accuracy is better than ever before.

Our meters are used in batching, blending, process control and to dispense fluids in liquid handling facilities throughout the World. Service includes gasohol blends, bio-diesel and special formulation racing fuels.

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.

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 (see page 1.8).

The TS Series meter is designed to provide:

V●● Assy: Drive to a mechanical register (

E & F●● Assy: Electric pulse signal to an electronic

S & W●● Assy: Electric pulse signal to a remote electronic register.

In the two electronic versions, the flow meter is 100% glandless with static O-ring seals only. A pulser (pulse pick-up) detects the movement of internal magnets, to generate the signal to the electronic register. Several types of pulse signal are available to ensure signal compatibility with all electronic registers.

this manual).

Fluid Compatibility

FPP Meter flow meters are available in anodized aluminum

and stainless steel, with a variety of rotor types, and seal & bearing materials, to ensure compatibility with a broad range of liquids and operating conditions. If in doubt about compatibility with a specific fluid or the operating conditions,

please refer to FPP210 (Liquid Compatibitily list) or FPP200 (FPP Technical Manual). If those publication do

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.

Installation, 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.

 The meter should always be supported by bolting firm-

ly to a solid platform or foundation. Never use the connecting pipe as the sole means of support.

 For most accurate measurement, the flow meter should

operate with some backpressure (avoid delivering into an open vessel).

 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.

OPERATING TEMPERATURE

TS Series V●● assemblies are rated for operation from -40°F/+180°F (-40°C/+80°C). However:

 They are not suitable for cryogenic service.  When operating temperature exceeds +120°F

(+50°C), pressure rating is reduced. Please refer to FPP Technical Manual for details.

OPERATING PRESSURE

Maximum non-shock Operating Pressure is: Flow Meter/Strainer : 400 PSI (28 BAR) at 100°F Air Eliminator/Valves: 150

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 Maximum Working Pressure rating.

 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.

 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. If using an FPP right-angle strainer:

 Inlet can be either from the front or the rear of the

strainer (inlet flange & strainer basket cover have same bolt pattern, and can be reversed in the field).

 Allow adequate space for removal of strainer basket

cover, so strainer basket can be cleaned.

 10” for models TS10A, TS15A & TS20A.  11” for model TS30A

 If no fluid is specified, strainer basket comes standard

with 40 mesh.

We also offer:

 20 mesh for high viscosity liquids, such as heavy

fuel oil, automotive lube oils, liquid sugars, molasses, etc.

 100 mesh for gasoline, alcohol & solvent service.

 200 mesh for LPG (Propane) service.

 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.

Installation & Start-Up/Operation



 Apply pipe compound to male threads, to install the two

companion flanges. Tighten to a position, that allows

the meter to bolt to the companion flanges, free of pipe stress.

 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.

 Flow meters are designed to withstand a certain level of

vibrations, such as might be experience on retail delivery

tank trucks. If the flow meter will be used in a system with higher levels of vibration, it must be protected with:

 Vibration isolating pad under the mounting pedestal.  Vibration isolators (flexible hose) on both inlet & outlet.

 In critical installations a by-pass line is recommended,

so flow can continue while flow meter is being serviced.

 When an Air Eliminator is included in the flow meter

assembly, the strainer/air eliminator must be in horizontal position, since the air eliminator operates on a gravity principle. A few drops of liquid may be expelled when the air eliminator vents, so vent ports should be piped back to storage or to a collection tank (sloping towards the tank).

 If an Air Check Valve is included in the flow meter as-

sembly, a modified air eliminator is used. One of the air eliminator vents must be connected to the port on the air check valve, using pipe, tubing or a flexible hose.

This connection must be made in the field, as we do not know what would be a convenient/practical path for the connection. Similarly, we do not know whether local regulations or codes dictate materials to be used for this connection.

 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 master meter) should be considered.

The ideal installation incorporating all of these recommendations is shown at the bottom of the page.

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.

Changing Direction of Flow

TS Series flow meters can operate in either direction. Standard assembly, when facing the flow meter, has the flow going Left-to-Right, unless specified differently at time of the order. A label with the word INLET is placed on the inlet flange, as assembled at the factory.

When the meter is first installed, check that the register is turning correctly when you start the flow. If it is not (or it is attempting to run backwards), check position of the face gear (11E) on the calibrator drive shaft (21A), and if necessary correct the position of the face gear versus the packing gland pinion (11D) as explained below.

Left-to-Right flow = Face gear below packing gland pinion

Right-to-Left flow = Face gear above packing gland pinion

The direction of flow can be changed in the field. This requires the following steps:

21A

INLET

11D

11E

 Any accessories (strainer and/or preset valve) attached to

the flow meter must be moved to the opposite side.

 Strainer inlet is standard from the front. When mov-

ing the strainer to Right-to-Left position, switch the inlet flange and strainer basket cover. If rear inlet is preferred, leave flange & basket cover as is, when moving the strainer.

 Standard outlet on Preset Valve or Air Check Valve

is towards the front. When moving the valve to Rightto-Left position:

 Air Check Valve: Rotate the valve 180º, then in-

stall tubing connecting air eliminator to the valve.

 Preset Valve: Rotate the valve 180º. Disassem-

ble the linkage, and re-assemble mirror image to original assy.

INLET

 Reverse the position of the face gear (11E) on the cali-

brator drive shaft (21A).

 First remove screws (16 & 17) to detach the dust cover

(15) from the RAD (14 = Right Angle Drive) adaptor. Now refer to photo in next column.

 Notice position of the face gear (11E) on the calibrator

drive shaft (21A) in relation to the packing gland pinion (11D).

Remove E-ring (21F) with a screwdriver or small pliers. As shown, the E-ring is installed below the face gear, where it is not visible in the photo.

21B

 Now loosen the set screw (18) with a 3/32” Allen wrench,

to release the calibrator drive shaft bushing (21B).

 Slide the calibrator drive shaft bushing (21B) out of the

bottom of the RAD (14).

 Pull the calibrator drive shaft assembly out of the RAD.

 Remove the face gear (11E), and turn it 180º, so that the

gear teeth are facing in the opposite direction from the original installation.

 Re-assemble the parts in reverse order.

 Make sure that the calibrator drive shaft bushing flange

(21B), is tight against the RAD (14).

 Tighten the hex nut (21C)

 Re-install the E-ring (21F) in the appropriate grove (in

the above example, the E-ring now goes into groove above the pinion

 Inspect to make sure that there is slight backlash be-

tween the pinion gear (11D) and the face gear (11E). They must engage without binding or slipping.

Calibration, Mechanical Flow Meters

W&M Certifications:

TS10A US TS15A US & Canada TS20A US, Canada, EU & Australia TS30A US, Canada, EU & Australia

Certifications are liquid specific. Please refer to national certificates for liquid categories covered.

Flow Meter Calibration at the Factory

All TS Series meters are accuracy tested prior to shipment. Data from accuracy testing is not supplied with flow meters, since results achieved on our test fluid do not apply to actual liquid of operation, unless the two liquids have identical viscosity characteristics.

When calibrated on a liquid with 1 cP viscosity, if the flow meter is not field recalibrated on actual liquid of service, we expect that the flow meter will be:

 Under by 1-2% on a liquid with 0.5 cP viscosity.

 Over by 0.35% to 0.6% on a liquid with 10 cP viscosity.

 Over by 0.7% to 1.2% on a liquid with 100 cP viscosity.

The accuracy curve will not shift significantly at higher viscosities, even if the actual operating liquid has viscosities up to 500,000 cP.

Accuracy curves of individual flow meters vary slightly. Such minor variations are corrected in the mechanical calibrator. In our calibration procedure, the meter calibrator is set for zero error, when operating at 95-100% of capacity on 1 cSt viscosity fluid.

Flow Meter Calibration in The Field

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.

This will minimize errors arising from:

A. Operation at a different flow rate. B. Operation on a fluid with different viscosity

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.  Date & result of each re-calibration, with % change made

on flow meter calibrator assy.

Mechanical TS Series meters have a mechanical drive train directly from the rotors (oval gears) to the register. To convert rotor movement to volume reading on the register, this drive train includes 3 calibration components:

 Packing gland pinion (11D)

can have 12 or 24 teeth, while the face gear (11E) always has 24 teeth, resulting in a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio. The appropriate ratio depends upon flow meter model size & specific unit of calibration selected for the register.

 Mechanical calibrator (19).

This component makes minute adjustments to final calibration to compensate for individual flow meter characteristics, viscosity of fluid being metered, and flow meter wear factor.

11D

11E

 A ratio gear plate installed below the mechanical register.

Gearing on this gear plate is specific to flow meter model & unit of calibration selected. Optimum ratio is between

0.5000 & 5.0000 for best service life.

The mechanical register is common to all flow meter models, so it is possible to move registers from one flow me-

ter to another. Do NOT move the ratio gear plate from

one flow meter to another.

Frequency of Re-Calibration

In installations subject to local Weights&Measures regula-



tions, frequency of recalibration must conform to such regulations.

 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 indi-

cate frequency of re-calibration for instrumentation. Those standards should be observed.

When 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.

Flow Meter Calibration

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 the effect of flow meter error during start-up and shutdown.

After calibrating a known volume (X) into an accurate



prover, through a master meter, or against a certified scale with adequate resolution, compare with register reading (Y) and calculate correction:

X-

x 100

= % correction

 When re-calibration has established that a correction is

required, remove the dust cover (15) from the RAD (14 = right angle drive adaptor), by detaching screws (16 & 17).

This provides access to the calibrator assembly (19), which has a dial on the front, and is marked with directions for + and - Volume. Each graduation of this dial represents approx. 0.06% change

The dial has a slot for a

screw driver in the center, so

the setting can be changed. As you turn the center, you will hear two ‘clicks’ for each graduation mark. Each ‘click’ represents approximately 0.03% change in the setting.

 When prover/master meter reading is less than flow

meter register reading, add percentage calculated

by turning the calibrator in the + volume direction.

 When prover/master meter reading is more than flow

meter register reading, subtract percentage calcu-

lated by turning the calibrator in the - volume direction.

 After correcting calibrator setting, 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, flow meter case should be replaced.

 Finally:

 Re-seal the flow meter.

 Enter date and % correction on the permanent flow

meter record.

As long as degree of change is moderate, the flow meter is in good condition.

If there is a sudden significant jump in correction required, the rotors are likely about worn out. Rotor replacement should be considered now, rather than letting further wear cause rotors to start rubbing on flow meter housing.

Do NOT change setting, unless re-calibration of the flow meter has established the need for correction.

Servicing the Flow Meter

! SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS !

 REMOVE ALL INTERNAL PRESSURE

BEFORE OPENING THE FLOW METER.

 DRAIN & RINSE THE FLOW METER

BEFORE SERVICING.

 IF IT IS NECESSARY TO TRANSPORT OR

SHIP THE FLOW METER TO A DIFFERENT LOCATION FOR SERVICE, IT MUST BE RINSED 3 TIMES WITH A NEUTRAL FLUID PRIOR TO TRANSPORTATION/SHIPMENT.

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 piping and the flow meter should be supported independently. This means that the meter can be serviced without affecting piping alignment.

Avoid prying or exerting heavy pressure on precision parts, as this could 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.

14a

Always coat bolt threads with an anti-seize, or an appropriate lubricant to prevent thread damage, and to assure proper torque values are applied when reassembling.

If flow meter threads are damaged, repair using inserts.

Servicing the Mechanical Drive Components

Flow meter wear depends upon several variable factors (flow rate vs model capacity, lubricity of the liquid, total volume being metered annually and maintenance of mechanical register, preset and/or printer), so it is impossible to predict the expected life for each component.

There are 8 parts or components, which will require inspection and/or replacement at some point. In the order they are likely to occur, these are:

Regular Maintenance (1-3 years)

A. Face Gear (11E) & Packing Gland Pinion (11D) B. Packing Gland O-ring (11B)

Longer Term Wearing Components (2-5 years)

C. Calibrator Drive Shaft Assembly (21) D. Gear Plate, internal (4)

Very Long Term Wearing Components (3-10 years)

E. Packing Gland (11) F. Oval Gears (2), or inspection of measuring chamber

Longest Term Wearing Components (5-20 years)

G. Post Plate assembly (3) H. Calibrator Assembly (19)

Of these, only A, C & H can be performed without taking the pressure off the system and draining the flow meter. The remaining all require opening of flow meter interior.

The first step is to remove the dust cover ( from the RAD (14 = Right Angle Drive adaptor).

A. Face Gear (11E) & Packing Gland Pinion (11D) C. Calibrator Drive Shaft Assembly (21)

Always replace Face Gear & Packing Gland Pinion together. They can be ordered under a single P/No. (see page …).

Servicing the Flow Meter

B. Packing Gland O-ring (11B) E. Packing Gland Assembly (11)

First relieve system pressure and drain the flow meter.

Then follow instructions for above for removal of calibrator drive shaft assembly. Remove E-ring (11C) from the packing gland assembly, and pull off the pinion (11D).

 Remove three screws (13) from the packing gland retain-

er (12). Remove the retainer

 Packing Gland O-ring and/or Packing Gland assembly

can now be replaced.

When replacing the Packing Gland, the drive dog must b e aligned with the slot in the gear on the gear plate.

 Reassemble in reverse order.

D. Gear Plate, Internal (4) F. Oval Gears (2), or inspection of measuring chamber

The wearing parts in the Gear Plate assembly are the reduction gears. On a longer time scale, the bushing in the gear plate will wear out. The gear plate assembly can be rebuilt or replaced in one of 3 ways, with d.3 being what is most commonly required:

d.1 Complete gear plate assembly

d.2 Gear plate/bushing assembly only, re-using gears.

d.3 Repair kit, with reduction gears & fasteners.

First relieve system pressure and drain the flow meter.

Also, detach the mechanical register stack, to take the weight off of flow meter front cover.

If the mechanical register stack includes a preset counter, detach the linkage from the trip ring (see top of next column) prior to taking the register stack off.

STUD

You now have access to the Gear Plate assembly (4). If rebuilding with repair kit, no further disassembly is required.

If replacing the oval gears, inspecting the measuring chamber or replacing the complete gear plate:

 Remove 4 screws (6) from the gear plate. The gear plate

can now be pulled off dowel pins (5), using a 5/16-8 x 1”

jack bolt if necessary.

 The gear plate assembly can now be rebuilt or replaced

as required.

 Prior to removing the rotors (oval gears), use a soft pencil

to make an alignment mark where the gears engage. This will make re-assembly easier.

The oval gears can now be inspected or replaced as required. When placing the oval gears back on the posts, make sure that they are aligned and spin freely on the posts. If they are not aligned correctly, they will disengage.

 The measuring chamber can now be inspected. Remove

any deposits using a fine emery cloth or wire brush. Be careful to remove any particulate material, which can cause the meter to jam.

A minor scratch in chamber surface can be carefully smoothed out, but be careful not to cause scoring or to change the dimensions. If the measuring chamber shows signs of scoring from rotors rubbing, it should be replaced.

SLEEVE

Valve linkage connects to preset trip ring at the rear.

Slide the sleeve towards

the shaft to release the mounting stud.

 Remove dust cover & calibrator drive shaft as explained

above.

 Remove 4 screws/washers (27/28) holding the RAD to

the front cover (8).

 Remove the cover bolts (10) from the front cover (8), now

remove the front cover from the flow meter and inspect

the cover O-ring (7) for flaws. Teflon fitted meters: Al-

ways replace seals when opening the flow meter.

 Re-assemble in reverse order.

G. Post Plate assembly (3)

First relieve system pressure and drain the flow meter.

 Remove the cover

bolts (10) from the rear cover (9), now remove the rear cover from the flow meter and inspect the cover O-ring (7) for flaws. Teflon fitted

meters: Always re- place seals when opening the flow meter.

Servicing the Flow Meter

 Remove 4 screws (6) from the post plate (3). The post

plate assembly can now be pulled off dowel pins (5), us-

ing a 5/16-8 x 1” jack bolt if necessary.

The posts are expected to last through several sets of rotors. When the posts show signs of wear, or if they have been bent due to hydraulic shock, the complete postplate assembly must be replaced.

 If hydraulic shock is suspected, the cause should be

identified and eliminated.

 If the posts show uneven wear (bearings cutting

grooves into the post), the differential pressure across the flow meter is too high, due to a combination of excessive flow rate & viscosity. Solutions are:

1. Reduce the flow rate.

2. Increase the temperature to reduce the viscosity.

3. Use a larger flow meter.

 Re-assemble in reverse order.

H. Calibrator Assembly (19)

The calibrator assembly is a mechanical device, which will wear out eventually. Calibrator wear can be accelerated by failure to clean and lubricate the components in the mechanical register stack (refer to separate manuals). If flow meter re-calibration gives erratic results (non-repeating), it is likely that the calibrator is worn out.

To replace the calibrator:

For optional flow meter accessories:

Strainer

Air Eliminator

Backpressure Valve

Air Check Valve

For optional control valves:

Mechanical Preset Valve

1-Stg solenoid operated Valve

2-Stg solenoid operated Valve

For mechanical register stack:

10:1 pulser

100:1 pulser

Preset Counter

Micro Switch kit

Ticket Printer

Pls see Section 2

Pls see separate Tuthill manual

Pls see separate Veeder-Root manuals

 Remove dust cover, drive shaft assembly and register

stack, as explained under A and D.

 Remove 2 screws (20) holding the Calibrator Assembly to

the Veeder-Root register flange (14B), using a Phillips screwdriver.

 Re-assemble in reverse order.

Troubleshooting the Flow Meter

Prior to opening or disassembly of any flow meter, all internal pressure must 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 have been taken, including proper clothing, 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 D & F on page 1.12), and inspect for damage.

 Meter jammed on a particle, that has passed through a

damaged strainer basket. Remove particle (see D & F on page 1.12) and replace rotors if necessary. Replace strainer basket, see page 2.1).

Reduced Flow Rate

Strainer basket partially blocked. Clean the basket (see



page 2.1).

 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 D & F on page 1.12).

Product Flows, but the register does not record

Check packing gland pinion (11D) & face gear (11E).



 If disengaged, re-assemble the drive shaft assembly

correctly.

 If worn, replace pinion & face gear as a set.

 If the calibrator drive shaft turns, the problem is either in

the calibrator assembly (19) or in the mechanical register.

 Remove the calibrator assembly (see H on page 1.13).

Insert the drive shat and turn by hand. If it turns smoothly without binding, the problem is in the register.

 Refer to Veeder-Root register manual & parts list.

 If the calibrator drive shaft does not turn, the problem is

either in the packing gland or in reduction gears on the bearing plate.

 Check the connections between the pulser and the elec-

tronic register.

 Check pulser output. Replace pulser (or SCL) 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 the 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. Re-

view 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 either on the scaler board 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, combined

with inadequate air elimination. Review system design and control valves.

 Interference from other electrical equipment nearby., pos-

sibly combined with sub-standard cables.

Broken Rotors (Oval Gears = #2)

System started on air/vapors.



Replace rotors and inspect meter case (#1) for damage; repair/replace as necessary. Slowly fill the system with liquid before starting the pump. Gradually increase flow rate to full capacity.

 Rotors jammed on a foreign particle (welding slag, part

broken off other equipment, etc.). Replace rotors and inspect meter case (#1) for damage; repair/replace as necessary. Add a strainer in front of the flow meter. Slowly fill the system with liquid before starting the pump. Gradually increase flow rate to full capacity.

Breaking Teeth on Rotors (Oval Gears = #2) Breaking Teeth/shaft on Reduction Gears (#4D/F/G

These are signs of hydraulic shock conditions in the system. Common sources:

 Starting or stopping flow too rapidly. Replace damaged

components and correct operational practices.

 Pump by-pass not adjusted properly. Re-adjust as nec-

essary.

 Open connection to another portion of the system with

higher flow rates. Close connection prior to use.

Leakage from End Covers

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 damaged

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.

Time frame for replacement of regular maintenance items and long term consumables (rotors, packing gland & calibrator) varies a great deal. Factors include user maintenance schedule, fluid lubricity, flow rate versus model capacity, intermittent versus continuous duty & total volume. In heavy duty service, rotors may last from 2-5 years, while in lighter duty service, they may last from 10-20 years or more.

#4 = Gear Plate assembly (internal)

Can be replaced complete, or as two sub-assemblies (the individual parts are not sold separately, as they must be replaced as a set):

 Gear plate with bushing (4A)

 Rebuild kit (items 4B-4I)

#29 = Companion Flanges

Companion flange assemblies (A+B+C) vary, depending on whether the flange attaches to:

 Flow meter body

 Inlet strainer

 Preset valve or air check valve on flow meter outlet.

A complete list of companion flange assemblies, seals and screws is found on page 1.16

#11 = Packing Gland

The packing gland ratio (D = 12 or 24 tooth pinion) depends upon flow meter model, and unit of calibration selected on the mechanical register. A list of packing gland ratios can be found in FPP Technical Manual (see list of ratio gear plates).

 Pinion/Face Gear (11D/E) can be replaced separately:

 GS2001 2:1, metal/PPS

 GS2002 1:1, PPS/PPS (standard)  GS2003 1:1, metal/PPS (for tank truck service)

 The packing gland is replaced as a kit under the P/No.

shown in the parts list, which includes both GS2001 & GS2002.

#21 = Calibrator Drive Shaft assy.

This assembly is replaced as a kit containing all components (A-F). Except for the E-ring (F) and face gear (11E), parts are not sold separately.
