Sensor Validation Procedure

1. Locate the Ro temperature (measured resistance at 0°C) value and

the Alpha value shown on the Calibration Certificate supplied with
the flow meter.


2. Turn off power to the flow meter. Allow a 6 minute

cool-down before continuing.


3. Remove the cover of the flow meter enclosure to access the sensor

connection points. Remove the four-position jumper from J5, J6,
J7 and J8 (see below for location).
