  • Page 2 Troubleshooting a V-Cone System On-Site This guide is intended to help you troubleshoot a V-Cone system. Keep several points in mind as you proceed: 1. Most V-Cones are calibrated devices. The meter has already had flow through it. If a cone is missing or a leak exists inside the meter, this would be discovered during the calibration.
  • Page 3 Transmitter wires are reversed. Negative signal Transmitter (< 0 mA) V-Cone installed backwards, with gauge lines attached as marked. In this Low signal V-Cone case, the high pressure tap would be sensing a lower pressure than the low (<4 mA) pressure tap.
  • Page 4 V-Cone is installed backwards. Look for a flow direction arrow on the Signal too high V-Cone meter body, near the pressure taps. If no arrow is visible and the meter is large than 2 inches, the flow direction can be determined by the location of the pressure taps.
