Proceed to a check of the tight-ness of the connections of the unit.
Check the flow of the installation
Metering of the flow rate with the roller counter (or by remote transmission) for 30...60 sec. Establish the flowrate
per hour with the formula:
Totalised volume in litre x 3600
Measuring time in seconds
Should the established value lie over and above the specification of the meter (Q max), either a flow control
choke (throttle) must be inserted behind the measuring unit or a bigger measuring unit must be used.
Electrical equipment and ancillaries
Check proper functioning.
Maintenance
Dirt trap
Dirt traps must be cleaned periodically, initially at short intervals. When opening the dirt trap please pay atten-
tion to points "Preparation for the mounting". When putting back into operation watch points "Operating start"
of these instructions.

The cleaning and revision cycle depends largely on the conditions of operation. Under favourable conditions
5...10 years are sufficient. Check the units for corrosion.
