King Instrument 7750 Series Installation Instructions

7750 Series
THIS IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
READ IT CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING WORK.
1) Inspect meter for damage that may have occurred during shipping.
Report any damage to the container to the freight carrier immediately.
2) Remove any shipping material placed in the inlet and outlet of the
meter. (This is done to prevent damage caused by movement of the
float during shipping)
3) Make sure your pressure, temperature, fluid and other requirements
are compatible with the meter and components.
4) Select a suitable location for installation to prevent excess stress on
the meter which may result from:
a) Misaligned pipe.
b) The weight of related plumbing.
c) "Water Hammer" which is most likely to occur when flow is
suddenly stopped as with quick closing solenoid operated
valves. (If necessary, a surge chamber should be installed. This
will also be useful in pressure start-up situations.)
d) Thermal expansion of liquid in a stagnated or valve isolated
system.
e) Instantaneous pressurization which will stress the meter and
could result in tube failure.
NOTE:
In closed thermal transfer or cooling systems, install the meter
in the cool side of the line to minimize meter expansion and contrac-
tion and possible fluid leaks at the threaded connections.
When it comes to flow...we're instrumental.

FLOW METER LIMITED WARRANTY

Meters are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship to the original user for a period of
thirteen (13) months from the date of factory shipment, provided the meter is installed, operated and
maintained in accordance with King Instrument Company's instructions and recommendations.
This warranty does not apply if failure is caused or contributed to by any of the following: improper
handling, improper storage, abuse, unsuitable application of the product, lack of reasonable and
necessary maintenance, use exceeding suggested pressure and temperature maximums, improper
packaging for return, or repairs made or attempted to be made by anyone other than King Instrument
Company, Inc.
KING INSTRUMENT COMPANY, INC. MAKES NO WARRANTY AS TO THE FITNESS OF ITS PRODUCTS FOR
SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS.
This warranty is valid for the original end-user only and does not apply to products that have been
damaged or modified. This warranty is non-transferrable and is limited to replacement or repair. The
liability of King Instrument Company arising out of its supply of the products, or their use, shall not in
any case exceed the cost of correcting defects in the products as set forth above.
THIS WARRANTY IS A LIMITED WARRANTY AND SHALL BE IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES,
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR MERCHANT-
ABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES WHICH EXIST
BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION OR FACE HEREOF.
IN NO EVENT SHALL KING INSTRUMENT COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, INDIRECT, CONSE-
QUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES.

factory for Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number and return instructions.
Installation Instructions
5) Handle the meter carefully during installation.
a) Use an appropriate amount of teflon tape on external pipe
threads before making connections. Do not use paste or stick
type thread sealing products.
6) Install the meter vertically with the inlet port at the bottom.
7) Meters with stainless steel fittings will support several feet of pipe
as long as significant vibration or stress resulting from misaligned pipe
are not factors.
8) Meters used in gas service should have suitable valves plumbed in
at the inlet and outlet of the meter. These valves should be no more
than 1-1/2 pipe diameters from the meter ports. The valve at the out-
let should be used to create back pressure as required to prevent float
bounce. It should be set initially and then left alone. The inlet valve
should be used for throttling purposes. Depending on the installation,
valves may not be essential, but they are most useful in many instal-
lations. Remember: To get a correct reading of flow in gas service, it is
necessary to know the pressure right at the outlet of the meter (before
the valve).
