Nova-Tech RITEFLOW FLOWMETERS AND KITS - Manual (Page 11)

g. Meter may be directly piped into a
system, or hose ends may be used for
connection with rubber tubing. For quick
disconnect, use Bel-Art’s Stat-O-Lok
™ sys-
tem (19723-0802/0202,
19724-0804/0204)
MOUNTED FLOWMETER:
1. Remove front panel by unscrewing four sock-
et head screws.
2. Remove back panel by unscrewing the two
large nuts. These nuts also hold the support
brackets against the back panel, and these
brackets will also have to be removed. If
Flowmeter is panel mounted, this step can
be omitted.
3. Turn knurled nut on top counter-clockwise as
far as it will go. If it sticks, a pin may be
inserted in the hole in the nut to start it.
4. Push flowtube up and swing it out bottom
first.
5. To reassemble, reverse the above order. Be
sure the scale is facing out.
MOUNTED FLOWMETER:
(ALUMINUM MODELS)
1. Remove front panel by unscrewing four sock-
et head screws.
2. Remove back panel by unscrewing the two
large nuts. These nuts also hold the support
brackets against the back panel, and these brackets will also have to be removed. If Flowmeter
is panel mounted, this step can be omitted.
3. Insert a 5/32” hex wrench into the pressure nut at the top of the flowmeter. While holding the
flowtube between your thumb and forefinger, turn the wrench, counter clockwise to release the
flowtube. Carefully remove the
flowtube so as not to damage it.
4. To reassemble, reverse the above order. Be sure the scale is facing out.
GASKETS
Note that Viton gaskets are provided at the end of the Flowmeter in Guarded and Aluminum
bench mounted Flowmeter assemblies.
Always use the gasket with the largest diameter tubing that will fit into the Flowmeter. The tub-
ing will center the Flowmeter in the guard.
