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.
3. Instrument Inspection Instruments are inspected before shipping and sent out in perfect condition. Should damage to a device be visible, we recommend a thorough inspection of the delivery packaging. In case of damage, please inform your parcel service / forwarding agent immediately, since they are responsible for damages during transit.
4. Regulation Use The units of model DF are used for measurement of liquid flow. Only low viscosity fluids which are chemically compatible with the materials used in the sensor housing are allowed to be measured. If using higher viscosity media, large measuring errors can occur.
Switching electronics or vane front may be rotated at will for ease of viewing (while in service). The KOBOLD measuring sensors are also available without a compact electronic. The linear flow proportional pulse signal provided by the sensor can be controlled by customer own electronics.
It must be ensured that the instrument housing is continuously filled with the flow medium, especially for flows from top to bottom. No straight runs are necessary at inlet and outlet. wrong! Sealing of the connection threads should be carried out with PTFE tape or similar.

8. Mechanical Commissioning To avoid pressure surges, the flow medium should be slowly introduced into the instrument. Attention! Pressure surges from solenoid valves, ball valves or similar may result in damage to the instrument (water hammer). In the operating condition it must be checked that the instrument housing is continuously filled with the flow medium.
