4 Installation

This chapter provides information for installation and setup of a flow computer. By the time this chapter is finished, the flow
computer will have been unpacked, installed, field wired and ready for operation. For a safe and trouble free installation, follow
all instructions and advisories.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Read through this chapter before beginning the installation. Additionally, before beginning,
refer to the wiring diagrams delivered with the new flow computer. The user can store these under the Drawing tab
in the back of this manual.
Installation procedures presented within this chapter are applicable to models XFC
6713 and 6714.

4.1 Unpacking and Inspection

4.1.1 Unpacking
The flow computer and RTD are shipped in a specially designed shipping carton which contains the unit, mounting brackets,
parts list and wiring and interconnect diagrams. The solar panel and the battery pack with applicable hardware are shipped in a
separate carton.
Carefully remove the items from each carton.
4.1.2 Inspection
— Inspect the shipping carton for damage. If the shipping carton is damaged, keep it until the contents have been inspected
for damage.
— Inspect the unit's exterior for dents, chipped paint, etc.
— Inspect the LCD window for breakage.
— Open the housing by first removing the bolt and releasing the latch/latches.
— Visually inspect the main electronic board (flow computer panel), cables and XIMV unit for damage.
4.1.3 Damaged Components
If any components have been damaged, or if there are noticeable defects, notify a Totalflow representative. Keep all shipping
materials for the carrier's inspection. Totalflow will arrange for immediate repair or replacement. See the Getting Help section in
the beginning of the manual.
