(All repairs must be made by MATHESON or an assigned and approved facility to maintain any warranties or guarantees). If the unit is under an applicable warranty, return the unit to MATHESON for repair or replacement. To arrange for warranty service, call 1-800-828-4313 and ask for the Warranty Administrator.
MATHESON's sole discretion, the equipment or part which is telephonically reported to be a problem to the local MATHESON Branch Location, and which if so advised, is returned with a written statement of the observed deficiency, not later than seven days...
Should such repair or replacement become necessary, MATHESON recommends that a telephonic or written request for service advice be made to the MATHESON Equipment Engineering Group in Montgomeryville Pennsylvania or to the nearest MATHESON branch location.
IV. GENERAL MATHESON flowmeters combine construction and performance features essential to accurate low flow measurement. This information is intended as a guide to efficient use; careful compliance should result in long and useful service. V. INSTALLATION Immediately after unpacking, inspect unit for any damage incurred during shipment.
VI. MOUNTING The meter must be mounted in a vertical position with the inlet (lowest end of the scale reading) at the bottom. Attitude of more than 5° from the vertical will affect the accuracy of the meter. Panel mounted meters should be installed in position prior to connection to process piping.
VIII. DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY A 5/32” hex wrench fits the recessed seal screw located at one end of the meter. Turn the hex wrench counterclockwise until the seal screw is flush with the inside surface of the end fitting. NOTE: If the meter does not have a tube enclosure then the tube must be held to prevent it from falling from the meter frame.
IX. CLEANING PROCEDURE (Please notify the factory if cleaning for oxygen service is required) A. TUBE AND FLOAT CLEANING Remove the float stops. Take care to avoid chipping the inside edges of the tube. Flush the inside of the tube with solvent (without wax or inhibitors, i.e. glycols).
