Omega Products FPD1000-HP Installation Manual

FPD1000-HP SERIES

HIGH PRESSURE

Positive Displacement Flowmeters

To the owner:

Thank you for purchasing an OMEGA FPD
Series Flowmeter. Please take a few min­utes to read through the manual before in­stalling and operating your meter. If you
have any problems with the meter, refer to
the Maintenance and Troubleshooting sec­tions of the manual.

This manual contains connection and op­erating instructions for the OMEGA FPD
Series meters with pulse outputs. This in­cludes the following models:

FPD1202-HP FPD1203-HP

The OMEGA FPD Series flowmeter has in­corporated the oval rotor principal into its
design. This has proven to be a reliable and
highly accurate method of measuring flow.
Exceptional repeatability and high accuracy
over a wide range of fluid viscosities and
flowrates are features of the OMEGA FPD
Series flowmeter design. With low pressure
drop and high pressure rating, means the
OMEGA FPD Series flowmeters are suit­able for both gravity and pump (in-line) ap­plications.

INSTALLATION

1. Use thread sealant on all pipe threads.

2. Ensure the meter is installed so that
rotor shafts are always in a horizontal
plane (See Figure 1). Flow is bi-direc­tional.

Figure 1

DO NOT install
meter this way.

3. OMEGA recommends use of flexible
connections.

4. Extreme care must be taken when in­stalling the meter. Pipe strain or over­tightening meter connections can
cause meter damage.

carefully before use!

Before use, confirm the fluid to be used is
compatible with the meter or consult with
OMEGA for advice.

To prevent damage from dirt or foreign
matter, OMEGA recommends a Y or bas­ket type 200 mesh strainer be installed as
close as possible to the inlet side of the
meter. (If required, contact OMEGA for fur­ther information.)

To prevent damage to the meter, slowly fill
the system with fluid. This will prevent dam­age caused by air purge.

NOTE: Failure to do this could damage the

meter.

For pump applications, turn off the pump
at the end of each day.

MAINTENANCE

Disassembly:

1. Ensure the fluid supply to the meter has
been disconnected, and the line pres­sure has been released before disas­sembly.

2. Remove the four screws and remove the
pulser cap.

3. Remove the gasket.

4. Remove eight screws and remove the
meter cap.

5. Remove O-ring and inspect. Replace O­ring if damaged.

6. Remove rotors, clean and inspect. Re­place rotors if damaged.

7. To remove the PCB, remove the two
screws.

NOTE: Reed Switch PCB’s cannot be re-

moved.

Reassembly:

1. Replace rotors into the meter body. The
rotors should be at 90 degrees to each
other.

2. Lightly rotate the rotors by hand. They
must rotate freely.

3. Install O-ring.

4. Replace the meter cap and tighten the
eight screws uniformly to 35Nm (25 Ft.
Lbs.).

5. Replace the pulser cap and tighten the
four screws.
