If your Aquametro Measuring Instruments show no frequency, current, or pulse output signal, first, verify that there is flow by checking the indication. If flow is present, ensure that the output parameters are correctly configured. If the issue persists, the transducer may be defective and require replacement.
How to reduce pressure drop at Aquametro CONTOIL VZF II?
If the pressure drop at your Aquametro Measuring Instruments is too high, it could be due to a heavily soiled dirt trap or filter. Try cleaning the dirt trap and replacing the filter. Alternatively, the flow meter’s safety filter might be heavily soiled; in this case, clean the safety filter of the flow meter.
Why do totalizers run backwards on Aquametro CONTOIL VZF II?
If the totalizer(s) on your Aquametro Measuring Instruments run backwards, it's likely that the meter is mounted in the wrong direction. Ensure that the meter is installed with the arrow pointing in the direction of the flow.
What to do if Aquametro Measuring Instruments indicate too high quantity or flow rate?
If the indicated quantity or flow rate is too high on your Aquametro Measuring Instruments, it could be due to incorrect meter positioning (e.g., at the highest point) or gas/air inclusion in the fluid. Check and correct the operating conditions and meter position. Also, carefully de-aerate the pipes.
How to fix a blank display on Aquametro CONTOIL VZF II Measuring Instruments?
If your Aquametro Measuring Instruments display is blank and shows no reading, it could be due to a lack of power supply. Check the wiring and polarity. Alternatively, the electronic counter may be defective, requiring replacement. When ordering a replacement, mention the serial number (SN).
What happens when the flow rate exceeds Qmax on Aquametro E-FLOW Measuring Instruments?
If the maximum permitted flow rate (Qmax) is exceeded on your Aquametro E-FLOW Measuring Instruments, the flow meter is likely mechanically overloaded and no longer measuring accurately. To resolve this, reduce the flow rate or use a higher nominal size.
