Please read these operating instructions before unpacking and putting the unit into operation. Follow the instructions precisely as described herein. The instruction manuals on our website www.kobold.com are always for currently manufactured version of our products. Due to technical changes, the instruction manuals available online may not always correspond to the product version you have purchased.
Any use of the OMH which exceeds the manufacturers specifications, may invali- date its warranty. Therefore, any resulting damage is not the responsibility of the manufacturer. The user assumes all risk for such usage. 5. Operating Principle The measuring principle of the KOBOLD screw-volumeter is positive displacement. fluid measured causes measuring spindles M to rotate.
7. Warranty The warranty is according to our terms of delivery. Repairs during the guarantee period must be carried out only by individuals authorised by us and in accordance with our agreement and instructions. OMH K02/1122 page 5...
8. Mechanical Connection Mounting position: Flow direction: flow direction: both directions are possible, preferable flow D according to the identification plate. Minimum pressure: on the outlet of the volumeter the pressure should be higher than 0,1 bar. In no case the medium may run out free of the volumeter Unclean medium: filtration with max.
9. Electrical Connection The dry sleeve is mounted, adjusted and tested with the pick up inside as a whole unit, by KOBOLD. The pick-up insert, including milled nut and spring, are screwed into the dry sleeve by the customer (see included data sheet).
10. Start up Technical data on the identification plate and on the attached leaflets must be taken into consideration. Venting: The system must be free of air (affects the accuracy) page 8 OMH K02/1122...

Dry sleeve Dismounting: Empty screw volumeter Open counter nut (hexagon 24) Unscrew the dry sleeve (hexagon 15) Mounting: Screw in the dry sleeve until O-ring is sealed. Fill volumeter with medium and start it. Screw in the dry sleeve carefully until it slightly grazes the rotating pole wheel (you can hear it through soft strikes), then turn back and tighten screw.
13. Failure Failure Reason Remedy too high Viscosity of medium and/or flow raise temperature (consider allowed pressure rate too high temperature range) drop reduce flow rate use bigger volumeter leakage seal not tightened enough tighten screws ...
14. Maintenance KOBOLD-volumeters are free of maintenance. At high bearing load it is useful to change the rolling bearings after a certain service life. When high accuracy is required, it is further advisable to calibrate the device peri- odically. 15. Technical Information...
