  • Page 12: Assembly

    5. Assembly 5.1 General Before assembly all parts have to be checked for particles of packing material. The flow meter TR3 possesses G1 external threads on both sides which allow it to be installed in any pipe. When doing so, please ensure that the meter is not under mechanical stress due to tension/ pressure or bending. To avoid this, an elastic equalizing element is to be used, and the lines are to be supported in a suitable manner.

    5.5 Rotating the display The display of the flow meter TR3 (1) can be mounted both vertically as well as horizontally in order to allow the meter to be read off comfortably (→ Fig. 5). To turn the display, the four screws (2) on the top side are loosened and the display is pulled upwards. The display can now be replaced in any desired orientation.

  • Page 18: Programming The Meter

    7. Programming the meter The device allows the unit of measurement (liters, US gallons, US quarts, US pints, imperial gallons, imperial quarts, imperial pints) to be selected, the basic selection of the medium characteristic curve (watery media, thin mineral oils) to be performed, as well as a calibration to be performed to optimize measurement accuracy.
  • Page 19: Setting The Meter Type

    7.3 Setting the meter type The flow meter TR3 meter is configured with two optimized characteristic curves for the measuring chamber made of PP and measuring chamber PVDF. One of these two characteristic curves can be chosen. "Reset" key: Switches between the characteristic curves for the measuring chamber PP and measuring chamber PVDF.
  • Page 20: Calibration With Measuring Vessel

    7.4.2 Calibration with measuring vessel One easy way to perform a calibration is by performing a comparison using a sufficiently large and precise measuring vessel. Proceed as follows: 1. Meter is in dispensation mode, partial volume counter has been deleted. 2. The dispensation is carried out at a flow speed that is as constant as possible until the measuring vessel is filled to the defined volume. 3. Switch to programming mode, sub-menu "Calibration" (skip volume unit and fluid menus with the "Mode" key). 4. Adjust the calibration factor until the quantity displayed corresponds to the quantity dispensed into the measuring vessel.
