1. Remove the PDM3700 cover panel (refer to the instructions earlier in
this chapter for information on opening the case).
2. Locate the mass transducer chamber of the PDM3700 and the two O-
rings in the top of the chamber

3. Using the cotton swab, apply the silicone compound to the O-rings.
4. Install the PDM3700 cover panel (refer to the instructions earlier in
this chapter for information on opening the case) and perform a leak
check.
If the monthly flow audit fails, perform a flow calibration. Tool/materials
needed for this procedure:
Flow meter
●
Tubing adapter
●
Flow calibration kit (59-010019)
●
o Red (0.028-inch) orifice
o Black (0.033-inch) orifice
Other adapters or tubing as required (to use customer flow meters these
●
instructions need to be adjusted accordingly)
