FTB6100/6200 Cold Water Meter is a volumetric type operating on theoscillating piston principle. This utilizes a piston which the water rotates in a working chamber,with each piston revolution being equivalent to a known volume of water. The highly accurate
FTB6100/6200 is specifically designed for cold water applications.

for extra long life and assured accuracy. Its
magnetically-driven, permanently hermetically sealed and nitrogen-filled register

thickglassface is tempered to resist breakage,
It features giant fully
scratching, and abrasion. A flow detector located on the top of the center spindle, providesvisual proof of plumbing leaks.
The
FTB6100/6200 has a self-lubricating positive displacement design. The
precision-machined internal parts are manufactured from graphite impregnated thermoplastic incombination with a longer life, more trouble-free service. Its internal 40 mesh strainer
minimizes stoppages due to foreign matter in the pipe.
Because of its unique oscillating piston
design and low oscillation rate, wear is reduced to a minimum.
The piston movement is transferred by appropriate reduction gearing and a magnetic drive to

WARNING
THESE WATER FLOWMETERS HAVE PLASTIC INTERNAL PARTS THAT ARE RAPIDLY ATTACKED BYHYDROCARBON FLUIDS, SUCH AS GASOLINE, DIESEL FUEL, KEROSENE, AND SIMILAR MATERIALS.EVEN TRACE AMOUNTS OF THESE MATERIALS IN WATER WILL TEND TO ACCUMULATE IN THE
PLASTIC PARTS, LEADING TO COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE FLOWMETER.

SECTION 3 INSTALLATION
3.1 UNPACKING
Remove the Packing list and verify that you have received all equipment, including the
following (quantities in parentheses):
FTB6100 or FTB6200 Series Cold Water Meter (1)
Operator’s Manual (1)If you have any questions about the shipment, please call the OMEGA Customer ServiceDepartment. When you receive the shipment, inspect the container and equipment for signsof damage. Note any evidence of rough handling in transit. Immediately report any damageto the shipping agent,
NOTE
The carrier will not honor any claims unless all shipping materialis saved for inspection. After examining and removing contents, savepacking material and carton in the event reshipment is necessary.
3.2 INSTALLATION
The meter must be installed in a clean pipeline, free from any foreign materials. The dial must
be mounted face upwards, no more than
45” from the horizontal.
The meter must be inserted with the flow in the direction of the arrow molded, or cast, into themeter body.

Couplings are provided, which allow for connection with NPT threads in sizes
12”
The l-l
and 2” meters have NPT screwed ends or oval flanged ends.
through I”.
SECTION 4 START-UP PROCEDURE
The meter piston can be damaged if the meter
is
subjected to full flow conditions prior to
expelling all the air from the piping. Therefore, turn on the flow gradually.
