Installation Instructions
Flow Meter liMited warranty
Meters are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship to the original user for a
period of thirteen (13) months from the date of factory shipment, provided the meter is installed,
operated and maintained in accordance with King Instrument Company’s instructions and recommendations.
This warranty does not apply if failure is caused or contributed to by any of the following: improper handling, improper storage, abuse, unsuitable application of the product, lack of reasonable and necessary maintenance, use exceeding suggested pressure and temperature maximums,
improper packaging for return, or repairs made or attempted to be made by anyone other than
King Instrument Company, Inc.
KING INSTRUMENT COMPANY, INC. MAKES NO WARRANTY AS TO THE FITNESS OF ITS PRODUCTS
FOR SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS.
This warranty is valid for the original end-user only and does not apply to products that have been
damaged or modied. This warranty is non-transferrable and is limited to replacement or repair.
The liability of King Instrument Company arising out of its supply of the products, or their use,
shall not in any case exceed the cost of correcting defects in the products as set forth above.
THIS WARRANTY IS A LIMITED WARRANTY AND SHALL BE IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES WHICH
EXIST BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION OR FACE HEREOF.
IN NO EVENT SHALL KING INSTRUMENT COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, INDIRECT,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES.
Products should be returned, prepaid, to King Instrument Company, Inc. with proof of purchase.
Call factory for Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number and return instructions.

read it careFully beFore beginning work.
1) Inspect meter for damage that may have occurred during shipping.
Report any damage to the container to the freight carrier immediately.
2) Make sure your pressure, temperature, uid and other requirements
are compatible with the meter.
3) Select a suitable location for installation to prevent excess stress on
the meter which may result from:
a) Misaligned pipe.
b) The weight of related plumbing.
c) “Water Hammer” which is most likely to occur when ow is
suddenly stopped as with quick closing solenoid operated
valves. (If necessary, a surge chamber should be installed. This
will also be useful in pressure start-up situations.)
d) Thermal expansion of liquid in a stagnated or valve isolated
system.
e) It is recommended to install valving which will allow the
meter to be drained. Meter should be drained when not in use
or prior to maintenance.
f) Instantaneous pressurization which will stress the meter and
could result in tube failure.
note: In closed thermal transfer or cooling systems, install the meter
in the cool side of the line to minimize meter expansion and contraction and possible uid leaks at the threaded connections.
4) Handle the meter carefully during installation.
a) Use an appropriate amount of teon tape on external pipe
threads before making connections. Do not use paste or stick
type thread sealing products.
5) Install the meter vertically with the inlet port at the bottom.
6) Meters with stainless steel ttings will support several feet of pipe
as long as signicant vibration or stress resulting from misaligned pipe
are not factors.
7) Pressure and temperature maximums must never be exceeded.

Pressure and temperature ratings are based on a study of the engineering data
for particular materials used in construction and on the design of individual
models. This information is supplemented by destructive test results. Meters with
stainless enclosures must never be operated without shields securely in place.
Meters exposed to difficult environments such as those created by certain
chemicals, excessive vibration or other stress inducing factors could fail at or
below the suggested maximums. Never operate meters above pressure and
temperature maximums. It is strongly recommended that all meter installations
utilize an appropriate pressure relief valve and/or rupture disc. The pressure
settings and locations of these devices should be such that meters cannot be
over pressurized. Meter failure could result in damage to equipment and serious
personal injury. Always use suitable safety gear, including OSHA approved eye
protection when working around meters in service. We are happy to pass along
chemical compatibility information that has been published by the manufacturer's
of raw materials used in our products; however, this information should not be
construed as a recommendation made by King Instrument Company, Inc. for a
specific application.
*Do not use cleaning agents that will damage float, tube or o-rings.
Meters should be cleaned with a mild soap solution. This will be an effective
cleaner of rust stains. Caution must be used so that materials of construction are
not damaged by cleaning solutions. Hard water deposits can be removed with 5%
acetic acid solution (vinegar).
7650 meters that require repair should be sent to the factory. Please call for a
Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number and return instructions.
-7650 Series meters have o-ring seals. Use with incompatible fluids may cause
o-rings to swell which may cause glass tube to fail.
Meters are not specifically recommended for service other than
water or air. The user must determine meter suitability for use
with other fluids.
-Extra caution must be exercised when meters are used in high pressure gas
cylinder applications. Pressure regulators should be installed at the cylinder and
at the inlet of the meter.
-Serious property damage and great personal injury could occur as the result of a
meter misused or used in an unsuitable application.

Float types and orientations
• 7650 Series meters have o-ring seals. Use with incompatible uids
may cause o-rings to swell which may cause glass tube to fail.
• Serious property damage and great personal injury could occur as the
result of a meter misused or used in an unsuitable application.
cleaning
Carefully remove the owmeter from piping system. Remove the outlet
end tting retainer by removing the 4 retaining screws with a
5/16” hex wrench. Remove the outlet end tting. Carefully remove the
glass meter tube. Be sure to not let the internals fall out. Use caution
when removing the glass tube. Do not allow the oat to fall out. Float
damage may result in inaccuracy.
