MAINTENANCE

Proper handling and care will extend the life and
service of the meter.

Turbine Rotor

The meter is virtually maintenance-free. However,
it is important the rotor moves freely. Keep the meter
clean and free of contaminants.
If the rotor does not turn freely, apply a penetrating
lubricant on the rotor, shaft, and bearings. Remove
any debris or deposits from the rotor using a soft
brush or small probe. Be careful not to damage the
turbine rotor or supports.

CAUTION : Blowing compressed air through the

turbine assembly could damage the rotor.

Battery Replacement

The meter is powered by two AAA alkaline
batteries which may be replaced while the meter is
installed. When batteries are removed or lose power,
the batch and cumula tive totals reset to zero but the
factory calibration is re tained.
If the meter display becomes dim or blank, replace
the batteries as follows:

1. Remove the four Phillips-head screws from the
face of the meter and lift the faceplate from the
turbine.

2. Remove the old batteries and clean any corrosion
from the terminals.

3. Install new batteries. Make sure the positive post
is in the correct position.

4. When the batteries are replaced, the faceplate will
power ON. Check the display to ensure normal
functions

have resumed before assembling

again.

5. Reseat batteries, if necessary, and position the
faceplate on the turbine housing. To avoid mois­ture damage, make sure the O-ring is fully seated.
Tighten the four screws on the faceplate.
