As a result, periodic adjustment or recalibration is not required. Technical assistance is also available directly from FloCat, who provides complete recalibra- tion and repair service for the flowmeter at a reasonable cost. Preliminary Checks NOTE: Do NOT open enclosure in hazardous areas with power applied. -
