CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
For routine cleaning, normally it is sufficient to pass a solution of water and detergent through the
flowmeter.
If the float is obstructed or the tube is too dirty, the flowmeter must be removed from the line and
disassembled in order to clean the tube and the float.
Before remove it, close the supply of fluid to the flowmeter.
Remove the flowmeter from the line, by disconnecting the unit at the top and the bottom (1).
Remove the nuts (2) and the float stops (3).
Remove the float (4).
Now the tube and the float may be cleaned, using an appropriate detergent.
Be careful not to damage the tube when cleaning it. It is recommended to use a cloth.
Important: Never use ethyl alcohol or alcohol-based detergents for cleaning the tube.
There are a large variety of chemical agents that can damage the flowmeter. For this
reason it is advisable to contact the manufacturer in case of doubt.
