  • Page 4: How It Works

    Optional seal materials allow for different fluid compatibility. Max Machinery, Inc. designs, manufactures, calibrates, and refurbishes high accuracy, high resolution, precision liquid flow meters under an ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management system. All Max Precision Flow Meters are tested and calibrated in our lab and provide measurements traceable to NIST.
  • Page 5: Installation Mechanical

    Installation - Mechanical Your Max Flow Meter has been configured at the factory to be used out of the box based on your submitted application data. Plumb it, wire it, and use it. The following section will provide instructions on how to properly plumb your Max Flow Meter in the liquid lines of your application.
  • Page 6 Installation - Mechanical Bypass Valves: Install valves to allow system start-up, filter replacement, or flow meter removal without completely shutting the system down and draining the lines. See diagram. Failure to use a bypass at start up may lead to flow meter damage due to debris, overspeeding the meter with air in the lines, and pressure shock due to initial line surges.
  • Page 7: Mechanical Operation

    Mechanical - Operation Determine that the following parameters of your flow metering system are within the specifications for the specific meter being used: Maximum System Pressure (Specifications) Differential Pressure across meter (Pressure Drop Curves) Maximum Flow Rate (Pressure Drop Curves) Metered Fluid Temperature (Sales specification, transmitter specifications page 8) If the metered fluid is greater than 28°C (80°F) over ambient, see the “High Temperature Start Up”...
  • Page 8: Installation Electrical

    Installation - Electrical WARNING: Electrical shock hazard. Serious or fatal injury may occur. Installation/Removal should only be completed by trained and authorized personnel. WARNING: Refer to the EXInstall Sheet for proper installation in hazardous locations. CAUTION: Verify transmitter output type (Analog or Frequency) before wiring. Inappropriate wiring could result in damaging the circuit.
  • Page 9: Electrical Quick Start

    You must determine if your process automation electronics have the capability to accept the high frequency output of the Max Flow Meter. If your system cannot accept the data at the pre-set frequency, then use the Max Machinery Interface Software Kit to adjust the frequency output to a lower setting that matches your system.
  • Page 10 Electrical Installation Instructions - 5-pin Turck Connectors Applies only to transmitters with 5-pin, M12 style connectors. For hazardous location transmitters with 1/2 inch conduit connections, please refer to the EXInstall sheet. Frequency Output Transmitters (PN ending N/-) Turck® Connector Mating Cable Pin # Wire Color Label...
  • Page 11 Electrical - Operating Information Max Flow Meters require a fully isolated power supply to operate. Refer to the Max Machinery Interface Software Kit Manual for instructions on how to change the flow meter output signal frequency or analog range to meet your application’s equipment needs.
  • Page 12 High Temperature Instructions Orient your meter so the transmitter is to the side or below to minimize heat transfer by convection from the flow meter to the transmitter. The transmitter is the most heat sensitive element in the system. Consult the table on page 8 specific limits on fluid and ambient maximum temperatures.
  • Page 13: Field Compensation Of Transmitter

    An alternating blue/green LED indicates that the circuit is detecting a magnet and provides an output signal. A steady or flashing red LED indicates a problem with the transmitter PCA. Contact Max Machinery to have your flow meter refurbished.
  • Page 14 The flow meter being compensated must not be used for system flow rate feedback control during this process. The transmitter output is disabled during the compensation routine. If you are unable to run a stable flow in the field, send your meter in to Max Machinery for calibration. The compensation routine is as follows: 1.
  • Page 15: Led Functions

    5 revolutions at the stated flow rates. If compensation fails, restart the compensation process. When using the Interface Software Kit, follow instructions provided to correct errors prior to attempting compensation again. If problems persist, contact Max Machinery at 707-433-2662 or at www.maxmachinery.com.
