    5.0 Maintenance and Troubleshooting • The F-550 Flow Meter requires very little maintenance. However, the flow meter may become clogged due to excess debris in the water. If this happens, simply shut of the process pump or valve and remove any pressure from the piping. If isolation valves are installed, shut these to minimize the amount of water that may leak.
