Operating instructions digital oval gear meter G General details Intended use This oval gear meter has been designed and built for measuring volumes of various media featuring different viscosities, and for the storage of data so collected. The oval gear meter is intended for installation at the end of an output hose, e.g. a hose reeler. Design and functional description The oval gear meter is a fluid meter with electronic counter &...
G Operating instructions digital oval gear meter 1.2.1 Display LCD The meter‘s LCD display is equipped with two numeric registers and different types of display modes showing information to the user only when it is actually needed with the operation / function going on at the moment.
Operating instructions digital oval gear meter G 1.2.3 Measuring chamber The measuring chamber is located in the centre of the meter. In the measurement chamber there is an oval gear mechanism which rotates and results in electric pulses being produced. These are then processed by the microprocessor on the electronic circuit board.
G Operating instructions digital oval gear meter General safety instructions Information on safety at work The oval gear meter has been designed and built in compliance with the applicable safety and health requirements of the relevant EU directives. However, hazards may result from this product if it is not used for its intended purpose or with the necessary care.
Operating instructions digital oval gear meter G Installation The inlet and outlet of the meter are aligned in a straight axis and equipped with 1“ threads. The meter may be installed in any given position, as a fixed unit in a pipeline and/or as a mobile unit on a spigot. The meter does not have a pre-defined flow direction.
G Operating instructions digital oval gear meter Output of liquid during standard operation (Normal Mode) During standard output of liquid, the meter will count and at the same time display the volume having gone through the device so far, and the resettable total (RESET TOTAL). Accidental pressing of the RESET and/or CAL buttons does not have any effect in this state.
Operating instructions digital oval gear meter G 5.1.2 Resetting the resettable total volume (RESET TOTAL) You can reset the resettable total only if you have reset the register of the partial volumes before. To reset the resettable total: press RESET for several seconds. The display will show the words RESET TOTAL (see fig.): You must carry out the following steps (in this order): 1.
G Operating instructions digital oval gear meter Accidental pressing of the RESET and/or TOTAL buttons does not have any effect in this state. Reset Total and absolute total (TOTAL) are not shown in this mode. However, the values nevertheless go up, of course. You can check after you‘re finished. Wait for the default standby mode and press TOTAL shortly.
Operating instructions digital oval gear meter G Calibration mode The meter has a fast and precise electronic calibration mode where you simply change the so-called calibration factor (K FACTOR). There are two calibration procedures you may choose from: Simulated operation + calibration (requiring actual output of liquid to be carried out). ■...

G Operating instructions digital oval gear meter 6.3.4 Changing the K FACTOR directly This procedure is helpful for the correction of a ‚mean error‘ that may be determined by monitoring a certain number of output operations. In the event you observe a mean percentage error during normal meter operation you may carry out a correction by changing the valid User K Factor by that percentage.
