Your Blue-White®
F-750(-A) / F-751(-A) Series Panel Mount Flowmeter |
|
Your Blue-White® flowmeter was
designed to be easy to install.
This flowmeter is an instrument, and
special care should be taken when installing.
The F-750 and F-751 are panel mounts
that are designed to be connected to flexible tubing by either slip fit,
clamping, or gluing and clamping (PVC tubing only). The meters are
available in a wide variety of direct reading scales for liquid or air.

Installation |
|
Please use the following steps to
guide you through the installation.

|
|
|
|
Drill two 11/32" (8.73mm)
holes on 3" (76.3mm) centers on a vertical plane. Use the template at
the bottom of this manual. |
Slide the red finger clamps
(P.N. 90002-206) on to tubing. Make sure to point the three prongs
toward the panel. |
Insert the tube connection
ports through the panel from the front. Hold meter firmly against the
panel from front during the following step. |
Slide the tubing over the
connection ports of the meter. Once tube is in place, slide clamps
against the rear of the panel so the three prongs touch the panel. Now
tighten clamps, use pliers if necessary. |
|
Note: For pressure exceeding over 50 PSIg
(3.45 BAR), use clear PVC glue on your PVC tubing, then slide over
connection ports
|
|
Operation
|
|
The float is "read at widest
diameter" of the ball. Adjustable models are adjusted by turning the
top mounted valve stem from left (minimum flow), to right (maximum
flow). The valve is not to be used as a shut off valve. |

|
|
|
|
|
Maintenance
|
|
Minimal maintenance is required.
Should the meter fail to read, make certain the adjustment valve is
open.
Cleaning: The flowmeter body and all other parts can be cleaned by
washing in a mild soap and water solution. A soft bristle brush will
simplify cleaning inside the meter body. |

|
|
Note: The above Temperature
Vs. Pressure chart reflects a glued installation.
|
|
Pressure and temperature limits are
inversely proportional. At the maximum suggested pressure the
temperature should approach 70° F / 21.1°C; at maximum suggested
temperature the pressure should approach zero psi. We cannot guarantee
our flowmeters will not be damaged either at or below the suggested
limits simply because of many factors which influence meter integrity;
stress resulting from meter misalignment, damage due to excessive
vibration and/or deterioration caused by contact with certain chemicals
as well as direct sunlight. These situations and others tend to reduce
the strength of the materials from which the meters are manufactured. |
|
Flowmeters are tested and calibrated for water or air only. Although
meters may be suitable for other chemicals, Blue-White cannot guarantee
their suitability.

All diagrams are strictly for guideline purposes only. Always consult an
expert before installing the Flowmeter on specialized systems. The
Flowmeter should be serviced by qualified persons only. |
