Color Flow Meter Kits
The color flow meter provides feedback to the system
about the flow of the color material and automatically
adjusts to maintain the color setpoint, based on the
feedback and the settings in the Advanced Display Mod-
ule (ADM).
NOTE: There are two color flow meter kits available for
use with the F4 Series. Kit 25A103 can be used for most
color materials. Kit 25A161 should be used for high vis-
cosity material.
NOTE: See the Fluid Automation F4 Series Setup-Oper-
ation manual 335028 for information about calibrating
the color flow meter and color injector.
1. Connect the flow meter to the colorant tank's mate-
rial line connection at the bottom of the tank. See
Colorant Tank Kits on page 14.
2. Connect the color material line to the outlet connec-
tion on the flow meter.
3. Connect the cable included with the color flow meter
kit to the cable connection on the flow meter.

4. Connect the other end of the cable to the electronic
enclosure at one of the Color F/M connections.
NOTE: Always use Color F/M 1 if you are only using one
press. Color F/M 2 can be used for the second connec-
tion in a dual press configuration, or if two injectors are
used on a single press.

Color Injector Kit, 25A108
The color injector connects to the barrel mixing stack
and is used to add color to the silicone material so it can
be mixed in the stack prior to being dispensed by the
press.
1. Attach the color material line from either the colorant
tank or the color flow meter (depending on the con-
figuration) to the color injector using the quick dis-
connect. The disconnect has a check mechanism
on both sides to prevent colorant from pouring out
when not attached.

2. Connect the 1/4 in. air line tubes from the color
injector to the injector solenoid on the stack.
