Page 4: Introduction
Introduction ® The EZ-IN Series BF (between-flange) Turbine Flowmeter measures flowstream volume in flanged pipelines by transmitting electrical pulses to readout instruments. The flowmeter’s precision turbine has a speed directly proportional to the liquid velocity flowing through the meter. As the turbine rotates, the blades break magnetic lines of force set up by a pickup screwed into the meter body. - Page 5 ® EZ-IN Series BF Turbine Flowmeter Manual Fig. 1—Flowmeter components...

Page 8: Installation Procedure
Installation Procedure Install a straight section of pipe on either side of the meter. This pipe must be the same size as the meter with a length of at least 10 pipe diameters upstream and 5 pipe diameters downstream. For example, a 6-in. -
Page 9: Calibration
® EZ-IN Series BF Turbine Flowmeter Manual Calibration ® The EZ-IN Series BF Turbine Flowmeter is precalibrated with water at the factory and tagged with the calibration factor in pulses/gal. For maximum accuracy with fluids other than water, calibrate the meter with the actual fluid being measured in the flowline. - Page 10 Flowmeter assembly Magnetic pickup All-thread Gasket stud bolt PART MAX.

Page 12: Reassembling The Meter
Reassembling the Meter Coat the OD of the bearing support with the grease provided in the kit to make subsequent disassembly easier. Caution—Do not lubricate the rotor shaft or bearing. Insert a bearing support in the meter body, making certain its flow arrow and the arrow on the meter are pointing in the same direction. - Page 13 ® EZ-IN Series BF Turbine Flowmeter Manual Return the meter to the line, using the body centering rings to align the meter properly with the interior diameter of the flanges. Carefully align the flange gaskets to help prevent gasket damage. Use the spreader nuts, if necessary, to provide room to lower the meter into the position between the flange gaskets.
