Meters are furnished for horizontal piping; left to right flow.
Flow ports can be changed to any of four positions for
horizontal or vertical piping and for either direction of flow.
1. Determine direction for fluid to flow.
2. Install meter observing directional arrow on casting.
3. Remove four screws (item 28).
4. Rotate meter cover assembly (item 37) to desired
orientation.
5. Replace four screws (item 28).
The Fill-Rite Series 900 meters can be calibrated for either
U.S. gallons or liters. Calibration is required upon
installation, after disassembly, after significant wear or
when metering a different viscosity fluid. Depending on the
model, Series 900 meters are factory calibrated in either
U.S. gallons or liters using mineral spirit. Calibration must
be done between 6 and 40 GPM (23 and 151 LPM).
Meter calibration can be easily changed by following the
calibration procedure. A container of KNOWN volume will
be needed for the calibration procedure. For the 900 Series
meter, a five gallon container or larger should be used.
For accurate measurement and to prevent meter damage,
meter and piping must always be filled with liquid and free of
air. Meter should be calibrated per instructions in this manual
prior to its use.
1. Stop flow of liquid.
2. Reset register to “0”.
3. Meter is ready for use. Start flow of liquid. Do not exceed
50 PSI of line pressure.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
MAINTENANCE
Meter should operate maintenance free. However, certain
liquids can dry out while in the meter housing, causing the
meter to stop. If this happens, meter should be thoroughly
cleaned (see instructions below).
Cleaning Instructions:
Run a flushing fluid through meter. For a more thorough
cleaning, disassemble meter per “ASSEMBLY /
DISASSEMBLY” section, “Meter Chamber Assembly”
subsection. Rinse all meter components. Recalibrate meter
following calibration instructions above.
Storage:
If meter is to be stored for a period of time, clean thoroughly.
This will help protect meter from damage.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Counter is reading high or low:
Check calibration and recalibrate if necessary. Check for air
in product and repair air leaks. Measuring chamber or gears
could be sticking. Correct by cleaning or replacing internal
metering components.
Shaft seal leakage:
Possible causes are dirty or damaged seals. Correct by
cleaning o-ring and seat area or replacing seal.
Gasket leakage:
Correct loose gasket by tightening joints. Clean dirty gaskets
and seat area. Replace damaged gaskets. If caused by high
pressure, install pressure relief valve to allow high pressure to
bleed back to tank.
Low flow capacity:
Clean clogged meter chamber; clean or replace screens and
filters in piping.
Meter body cracks:
Install pressure relief valve to allow high pressure to bleed
back to tank.
Nutating disc breaks:
Avoid flow surge by putting shut-off valve on outlet of meter;
place meter as close as possible to pump; keep piping full of
liquid.
Procedure for Calibration:
1. For the most accurate calibration, install the meter in the
application. Fill a container to a known volume with the
liquid to be measured.
2. If meter amount is incorrect, turn calibration screw (item
31) counterclockwise for less liquid, or clockwise for
more liquid.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until calibration is acceptable.
