1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Every OVAL flowmeter is thoroughly tested before it leaves the factory. When received, it should be thoroughly
inspected for indication of rough handling during transit. Necessary handling precautions are described in this
section; read the instructions carefully.
As for other information, find the respective sections from "CONTENTS" on pages 2 and 3.
For any inquiries, contact your nearest OVAL designated sales office.
CAUTION: When you make inquiries, include the product name, model number, serial
number, ratings and other necessary information.
1.1 Confirming the Nameplate
Every OVAL flowmeter is assembled and adjusted
according to individual specifications. Product code
and ratings are stated on the register tag (page 6).
Make sure that, by referring to the GENERAL
SPECIFICATIONS on page 59 and PRODUCT CODE
EXPLANATION page 62, the ratings shown conform
to your particular specification.
1.2 Transportation Considerations
(1) To safeguard against damage during transit, transport the OVAL flowmeter to the installation site in the
same container used for transportation from the factory if circumstances permit.
(2) OVAL flowmeter is adjusted and inspected as an assembly consisting of the meter body, sensor and
register. It should therefore be handled as an integral assembly.
(3) The register is accurately set up and adjusted. Do not attempt to remove the front cover to gain access to
its internal assembly.
1.3 Storage Considerations
If an OVAL flowmeter is stored for long periods of time upon receipt before installation, unexpected faulty
conditions could result. If a long-term storage is anticipated, take the following precautions:
(1) Keep your OVAL flowmeter in store in the same shipping container used for transportation from OVAL if
possible.
(2) Place of storage should conform to the following requirements:
★
Free from rain and water.
★
Free from vibration and impact shocks.
★
Temperature and relative humidity in the storage place are at or near room temperature and humidity
(around 25
°
C and 65%).
(3) Purge the OVAL flowmeter that has once been placed in service with clean air, N
2
gas, etc. to prevent the
metered fluid from adhering to the meter connections, piping inner walls, housing, etc. before storage.
(Wash clean with suitable detergent if necessary.)
(4) In case of storage for extended periods of time, good practice is to keep in store in the same containers
used for shipment from the factory.
(5) After proving, immediately remove the test fluid completely and fill with rust preventive liquid or the process
fluid.
