    Two AAA batteries power the unit for up to one year. There are three models are available: F-1000-RB is a rate meter - designed to measure and display the rate of flow. F-1000-TB is a totalizer meter - designed to measure and display the total flow.

  • Page 5: How To Install The Meter

    Do not install the meter so that the LCD is in direct sunlight. The F-1000 can be mounted on horizontal or vertical runs of pipe (see figure 4, 5 and 6). Mounting anywhere around the diameter of vertical pipe is acceptable, however, the pipe must be completely full of water at all times.
  • Page 6: Pipe Flow Stream Requirements

    Pulsating, swirling and other disruptions in the flow stream will effect the meter’s accuracy. The F-1000 is factory calibrated to ± 2% of full scale rate reading. When measur- ing total flow, accumulated error over time must be considered. Accuracy is based on laboratory testing of nominal pipe dimensions.

  • Page 8: How To Install Your Saddle Fitting

    Page 8 4.3 HOW TO INSTALL YOUR F-1000 SADDLE FITTING The F-1000 saddle is designed to mount on smooth schedule 40 IPS pipe, schedule 80 IPS pipe (ASTM-D-1785) , PN10 metric pipe or PN16 metric pipe (DIN 8062). The outside of the pipe must be clean, smooth and free of surface imperfections.
  • Page 9: Drill The Mounting Hole

    Select an area on the pipe as outlined in section 4.1. Be sure the surface area of the pipe is clean and smooth. Drill a 1-1/8" diameter hole through the pipe wall. The F-1000 meter can be installed up to 45 degrees from the top of the pipe. A hole saw kit is available from the factory, order part number 20000-062.
  • Page 10: Install The Sensor

    Threads (MPT). Select an area on the pipe as outlined in section 4.1. Install the F-1000 as you would any other plastic pipe fitting. Be sure the inlet and outlet fittings are aligned properly. Improper alignment of the fittings will put stress on the adapter connections and may cause leaking or fitting damage.

    4.5 HOW TO INSTALL MOLDED PVC TEE FITTINGS (TE) Select an area on the pipe as outlined in section 4.1. Remove the F-1000 sensor from the tee fitting. Do not glue the TEE while the sensor is installed. Install the F-1000 tee fitting as you would any other plastic pipe solvent weld (glue) fitting.
  • Page 12: How To Operate The Meter

    2.0 seconds resets the total to zero. This feature can be disabled -- see Fig. 12 below. Model F-1000-RT:The F-1000-RT is the rate and totalizer meter. The meter will display the flow rate amounts and the total flow amounts from .01 through 999999 in any engineering units.
  • Page 13: Flow Ranges

    Page 13 6.0 FLOW RANGES The F-1000 is factory calibrated to ± 2% of full scale rate reading. When measuring total flow, accumulated error over time must be considered. Accuracy is based on laboratory testing of nominal pipe dimensions. Your actual accuracy will vary based on your actual pipe I.D.
  • Page 14 Ceramic, titanium or nickel axles are available for corrosive and abrasive fluids. Although the F-1000 is designed to withstand outdoor conditions, a cool, dry location where the unit can be easily serviced is recommended. The life of the LCD display will be severely reduced when installed in direct sunlight.
