1. Installation and usage method of plastic tube rotor flowmeter

The installation and usage method of LZS series plastic tube rotor flowmeter is as follows:

1. Installation method of Kaixiong: Connect by direct insertion and bonding: Use ABS or PVC plastic tube, directly insert into the flowmeter joint with special adhesive and fix it. Flange connection: If it needs to be connected to a metal pipeline, ABS or PVC flanges should be used to bond the flowmeter first, and then the flange should be connected to the metal pipeline to ensure sealing. Installation direction and angle perpendicular installation: The flowmeter must be installed vertically on the pipeline, with a tilt angle of less than 5 °, otherwise measurement errors may occur due to uneven force on the rotor. Direction identification: During installation, it is necessary to ensure that the flow direction arrow of the flowmeter is consistent with the actual flow direction of the medium. The straight pipe section requires an upstream straight pipe section: A straight pipe section of at least 5 times the diameter length should be reserved upstream of the flowmeter to eliminate interference from eddy currents or resistance in the pipeline and ensure data stability. Downstream straight pipe section: There is no strict limit on the length of the downstream straight pipe section, but it is recommended to reserve 2-3 times the diameter length to optimize the flow state. Adequate space should be reserved around the installation of the flow meter for subsequent maintenance, debugging, and reading operations.

2. Before use, check the range matching to confirm that the measurement range of the instrument matches the actual working conditions. The ma

ximum instantaneous flow rate of the measured medium should be less than the upper limit of the flowmeter to avoid damage to the rotor or sensor caused by exceeding the range.

. Medium parameter pressure: The pressure of the measured medium should be within the maximum working pressure range allowed by the flowmeter (usually indicated on the nameplate or instruction manual). Temperature: The medium temperature should comply with the working temperature range of the flowmeter (such as PVC material is generally suitable for -10 ℃ to 60 ℃, ABS material is suitable for -20 ℃ to 80 ℃), to prevent material deformation or seal failure. After the installation of the sealing inspection is completed, slowly open the valve and check if there is any leakage at the sealing point of the cone tube. If leakage is found, tighten the nut slightly; If there is still leakage, the seal (such as O-ring or gasket) needs to be replaced.

III. Precautions for use: Ensure that the medium is clean and free of large particles, impurities, or fibers, and avoid blocking the cone tube or getting stuck in the rotor.

. If necessary, install a filter in front of the flowmeter. Flow stability should avoid severe fluctuations in medium flow (such as frequent pump start stop), otherwise it may cause excessive rotor vibration and affect reading accuracy. Antifreeze and Sunscreen Low Temperature Environment: If the medium may freeze, the flowmeter needs to be insulated to prevent the rotor from freezing and unable to move. Outdoor installation: Plastic tube flow meters exposed to sunlight for a long time need to be equipped with sunshades to prevent material aging. Regular maintenance and cleaning of the cone tube: Check the inner wall of the cone
