    (48 mm) hole . 3 . Install the Badger Meter isolation valve and nipple onto the fitting using pipe thread sealant or Teflon® tape on all threads . 4 . Install the Badger Meter hex mounting adapter onto the valve assembly . Use pipe thread sealant on the adapter .
  • Page 8 Hot Tap Installation for 225BR, 226BR, and 226SS Example: The sensor is installed in an 8 inch schedule 80 pipe, with a pipe wall thickness of 1/2 inch . If the overall sensor length is 16-3/8 inches and the H dimension is 10 inches, the D value is calculated as follows: D = Overall length −...

Install the three lock nuts onto the threaded rods, tightening only the lock nut on the threaded rod with the preset hex/ jam nut . 16 . Then bring the two remaining lock nuts down until they just contact the positioning collar . Do not tighten at this time . 17 .

    . 1 . Route the cable from the sensor to a Badger Meter flow monitor/transmitter . The cable can be extended up to 2000 feet, using 2-conductor shielded 20 AWG or larger stranded copper wire . Be sure to leave enough flexibility in the cable or conduit to allow for future service of the flow sensor, if necessary .

  • Page 13: Calibration

    CALIBRATION Badger Meter sensors use unique K and Offset numbers for calibration . These numbers are derived from calibration runs using NIST traceable instruments . Using both a K and an Offset number provides higher accuracy than using a K (pulse/gal) factor alone .

    IMPELLER ASSEMBLY AND SHAFT REPLACEMENT If you are replacing an existing Badger Meter sensor and have already calibrated your flow monitor/transmitter, no calibration changes are necessary . For installation of a new flow monitor or for relocation of a sensor in a new pipe size, see the calibration instructions in this manual .
  • Page 17: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting TROUBLESHOOTING 1 . If the voltage at the sensor input is less than 7V DC in a no flow situation, disconnect the sensor from the barrier strip and measure the voltage again at the sensor input terminals of the barrier strip . It should be between 8…20V DC . If the voltage at the sensor input is still below 7V DC or 3V DC, the problem may be with the monitor (hardware or programming) .
