  • Page 13: K-Factor Chart

    K-Factor Information NOTE: The meter size is molded on the vertical stem of the Tee. FLOMEC ultrasonic flowmeters use typical K-Factor values specific to the adjoining pipe used in the application for greatest accuracy during calibration. These values are derived by calibrating the meters using NIST traceable instrumentation.

    INSTALLATION Typical UM Tee meter (Tee with ultrasonic electronics) shown below Figure 2 (UM050SK shown) GlobalTestSupply www. .com Find Quality Products Online at: sales@GlobalTestSupply.com...
  • Page 15 INSTALLATION (Continued) NOTE: Allow room above the insert for the electronic module and computer display (see Specifications for dimensions). UM ultrasonic meters should be installed with straight runs of pipe equal to 10 pipe diameters upstream, and 5 times the pipe diameter downstream to prevent turbulence that can decrease the meter’s accuracy.
  • Page 16: Connections - Socket Fitting Meters

    INSTALLATION (Continued) Socket Fitting Meters - Connections Remove all burrs from the O.D. and I.D. edges of the pipe ends, and the I.D. edges of the Tee sockets (see Figure 4). Clean and apply primer to the pipe ends and Tee sockets (see Figure 5) Apply PVC cement to pipe ends and Tee sockets and quickly assemble the parts while the cement is fluid, following the cement manufacturer’s instructions (see Figure 6).
  • Page 17: Connections - Npt/Bspt Fitting Meters

    INSTALLATION (Continued) NPT and BSPT Fitting Meters - Connections Installation to metal connections is not recommended. Seal all pipe threads with an appropriate non-lubricated thread sealant (such as Loctite® No More Leaks™ Plastic Pipe Thread Sealant or NSF equivalent for NSF applications).
  • Page 18: Troubleshooting

    Do not install within 20 pipe diameters downstream of pressure regulation equipment. These devices cause any entrained air in the line to expand, and could cause your FLOMEC Ultrasonic Meter to become inaccurate. The faces of the transducers need to be clean and free of oily substances for accurate operation.
  • Page 19: Repair, Repair Parts List

    REPAIR There are no repairs that can be made to the Tee housing. Replacement Tee housings are available as replacement parts. See the specific section of the Ultrasonic Electronics Manual for available repair parts for the ultrasonic insert, electronic module, and computer display. REPAIR PARTS LIST Model No.
