Why is the display on my Flomec Monitor inaccurate?
- M
  marshallanitaAug 18, 2025
  An inaccurate display on your Flomec Monitor can stem from several issues. It may be due to an improperly performed field calibration, in which case you should recalibrate or select Factory Calibration, following the Field Calibration Section instructions. Operating the meter below the minimum flow rate can also cause this, so increasing the flow rate might help. Other potential causes include the meter or turbine bearings being clogged with dried liquid (remove and clean carefully, ensuring the rotor spins freely), sealant material wrapped around the meter rotor (remove the rotor and ensure free spinning), or incorrect installation too close to fittings, motors, or an electrically 'noisy' environment (reinstall correctly).

What to do if the Flomec Monitor display doesn't show count but flowrate is normal?

  If your Flomec Monitor shows a normal flow rate but the display doesn't show a count, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check if the field calibration was performed correctly; if not, recalibrate or select Factory Calibration. Another potential cause is a rotor that's either stuck or damaged. In this case, you should remove the meter and ensure the rotor spins freely. Also, check for any sealant material wrapped around the rotor, and remove it to ensure free movement. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the computer itself might be defective, and you should contact the factory.

  A faded or blank display on your Flomec Monitor usually points to battery issues. Try removing the computer to check and replace the batteries. If replacing the batteries doesn't solve the problem, it's possible that the computer itself is defective, and you may need to contact the factory.

What to do if Flomec Monitor has reduced flowrate and the display doesn't show count?
- T
  Theresa NelsonAug 26, 2025
  If you're experiencing a reduced flow rate and the display on your Flomec Monitor isn't showing a count, it could be because the meter is clogged with dried liquid. Try removing the meter, cleaning it carefully, and making sure the rotor spins freely. Alternatively, the flow rate might be below the minimum required; in that case, increase the flow.

Why can't I get my Flomec Monitor computer into field calibration?
- D
  Dr. Brittany RoweAug 27, 2025
  If you can't get the computer into field calibration mode on your Flomec Monitor, it might be due to using the wrong button sequence. Make sure to follow the instructions in the Field Calibration Section. Alternatively, the computer circuit board or a button might be defective. In either of these cases, you would need to replace the computer and contact the factory.

What to do if there is no flow on screen when fluid is moving in pipe on Flomec Measuring Instruments?
- K
  Katherine CalhounSep 2, 2025
  If there's no flow showing on the screen of your Flomec Measuring Instruments when fluid is moving in the pipe, it might be due to a few reasons. You may need to field calibrate again or select Factory Calibration if the field calibration wasn't performed correctly. The rotor could be stuck or damaged, or sealant material might be wrapped around it; in either case, remove the meter and ensure the rotor spins freely. Another potential cause is a defective computer, which may require further assistance.

Why is there excessive flow on screen when fluid is not moving in pipe on Flomec Measuring Instruments?
- R
  roberta54Sep 4, 2025
  If you're experiencing excessive flow readings on your Flomec Measuring Instruments when fluid isn't moving in the pipe, it's likely due to Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). This can happen if the meter is too close to a motor or other electrically noisy equipment. To resolve this, move the installation point of the meter away from EMI sources.

Why is the display faded or blank on my Flomec Measuring Instruments?
- E
  Emily BullockSep 7, 2025
  If the display on your Flomec Measuring Instruments is faded or blank, the batteries might be weak, dead, or not connected. Remove the display and check/replace the batteries. Alternatively, the ambient temperature might be too cold; place a bare hand or something warmer on the display for temporary readability.

What does “BA0.000” mean on my Flomec Measuring Instruments?
- T
  Thomas WelchSep 12, 2025
  If your Flomec Measuring Instruments display shows “BA0.000”, it indicates a configuration issue. You can try to reset Batch and Accumulative Totals, or perform a Field Calibration to achieve the desired performance.
