E-887-3N-E 1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN Every OVAL product is thoroughly tested and inspected before shipment from our factory. When received, its appearance should be inspected for possible damage by rough handling during transit. First of all, thoroughly read the handling precautions described in this section. For topics other than those covered in this section, refer to the respective sections of this manual.
In response to the flowrate, temperature, and blend ratio information arriving from the OVAL flowmeter, it converts the flowrate to the equivalent volume flowrate under standard conitions and totalizes the flow.
