Adapter (End Cap) Installation
Note: Mounting a flow sensor in a valve end cap adapter will normally not meet the previously
listed sensor location guidelines. Refer to
“Flow Sensor Location”. When it is necessary to
mount the sensor in an end cap adapter, the multipoint calibration feature available on the
UBEC3 valve controller/display should be used to minimize reading error.
Note: Ensure that there is enough room for the sensor and connector.
1. Install sensor housing into valve end cap adapter using supplied socked head screws.
2. Insert flow sensor into sensor housing. Align flat spot on sensor rim with alignment tab and make sure
o-ring is in groove.
3. Hand tighten retainer cap.
Note: The retainer cap only needs to be hand tightened. There is an inside lip that will stop the cap
from turning when it makes contact with the alignment tab. This provides the correct pressure to
make the seal at the o-ring. Make sure the flow sensor does not disengage from the alignment tab
and rotate.
4. Connect cable from display module to flow sensor. The cable is color coded blue. Refer to
Wiring section on Page 68.
