▪ Product’s type and size identificator: see name plate, key to name plate (⇨
Section 4.4 Page 15)
▪ Hydraulic pump efficiency (%) with trimmed impeller: see data sheet
▪ Pump performance curves, including efficiency characteristics: see documented
characteristic curve
▪ The efficiency of a pump with a trimmed impeller is usually lower than that of a
pump with full impeller diameter. Trimming of the impeller will adapt the pump
to a fixed duty point, leading to reduced energy consumption. The minimum
efficiency index (MEI) is based on the full impeller diameter.
▪ Operation of this water pump with variable duty points may be more efficient
and economic when controlled, for example, by the use of a variable speed drive
that matches the pump duty to the system.

2

Fig. 3: Sectional drawing


1 Impeller 2 Suction nozzle
3 Pump shroud 4 Discharge nozzle
Design The pump is designed with a radial fluid inlet (suction nozzle) and a radial outlet
(discharge nozzle) arranged on the same axis. The hydraulic system is rigidly
connected to the motor by a shaft coupling.
Function During pump operation, a lower pressure forms at the impeller inlet. This lower
pressure makes the fluid enter the pump via the suction nozzle (2). Each stage
consists of one impeller (1) and one diffuser. The flow through a stage equals the
flow rate of the pump. The stage diameter is related to the centrifugal forces and the
"stage pressure". The more stages, the higher the pressure. The fluid is guided
outwards to the area between the pump stages and the stage casing (3), from where
it leaves the pump via the discharge nozzle (4).
Sealing The pump is sealed by a standardised mechanical seal.

4.7 Noise characteristics

7.2.2.1 Grease lubrication


The bearings are supplied packed with high-quality lithium-soap grease.

7.2.2.1.1 Intervals
Depending on the pump size and rotational speed, re-lubricate the rolling element
bearings at regular intervals or replace the grease in the rolling element bearings.

NOTE
On some pump designs the rolling element bearings are lubricated for life. These
pumps are not provided with a lubricating nipple on the bearing bracket.

NOTE
If re-lubrication intervals are short, we recommend that the grease be completely
replaced once a year.
Otherwise, the grease fill must be replaced completely every two years. To do so,
remove the rolling element bearings, clean and pack with new grease.
Motors with lubricating nipple must be re-lubricated every 2000 hours.
If the pump is operated under extreme conditions, such as vibrations or high
temperatures, the motors must be re-lubricated more frequently.

3.5.3 Speed Switch (when supplied)

Overspeed is defined as 120% of rated speed for


engines rated from 1470 through 2600 rpm. In the
event of an engine overspeed, the speed switch
signals the main pump controller and also affects an
engine shutdown. The OVERSPEED RESET
(Figure# 9) switch is included on the instrument
panel. Should an overspeed condition occur,
investigate the cause and make necessary corrections
Figure #28A – DP6H before placing engine back in service. The
OVERSPEED RESET must be manually lifted for
two (2) seconds to reset.

NOTE: This reset operation must be


completed to allow a restart. If not, the
engine will not start thru the main pump
controller or manually.

OVERSPEED VERIFICATION
Figure #28B – DQ6H B Hold the OVERSPEED VERIFICATION switch in
the “up” position. This will provide the main pump
controller with an overspeed signal and engine
shutdown at 67% of the set overspeed RPM. Start
the engine via the main pump controller; the speed
switch will generate an overspeed signal and
shutdown protecting both the engine and pump.

EXAMPLE
Rated Speed: 1760 RPM
Overspeed Shutdown: 2112 RPM (120% of
Figure #28C – DR8H / DS0H / DT2H 1760 RPM)
Verification Shutdown: 1410 RPM (67% of

CAUTION-after verification of overspeed, lift the


OVERSPEED RESET switch for two (2) seconds
and reset the main pump controller to re-instate
normal operation of the engine and speed switch.

3.5.4 Magnetic Pick-Up (when supplied)

A magnetic pick-up, mounted in the flywheel


housing, provides the input signal for the tachometer
overspeed switch, and/or the main pump controller.
There should be approximately 0.03" air gap between
the top of the ring gear and the center of the magnetic
pick-up. With one tooth centered in the magnetic
pick-up hole, thread the pickup in until it touches the Figure #29
gear tooth and then back it out 1/2 turn. Tighten jam
nut while holding the pickup in position. Reconnect
to wiring harness. With the engine operating at rated
speed, the output voltage on the mag pickup should
be between 7 VAC(rms) – 14 VAC(rms).

Design The pump is designed with a tangential fluid inlet and a tangential fluid outlet. The
hydraulic system runs in its own bearings and is connected to the motor by a shaft
coupling.
Function The fluid enters the pump tangentially via the suction nozzle (1) and is accelerated
outward by the rotating impeller (5). In the flow passage of the pump casing the
kinetic energy of the fluid is converted into pressure energy. The fluid is pumped to
the discharge nozzle (10), where it leaves the pump. The clearance gap (6) prevents
any fluid from flowing back from the casing to the suction nozzle. The shaft (7)
enters the hydraulic system through the volute casing (4). The shaft passage through
the sealing housing is sealed to atmosphere with a shaft seal (9). The shaft runs in
rolling element bearings (3 and 8) located in a bearing housing (2) which is
connected to the volute casing (4).
Sealing The pump is sealed by a shaft seal (standardised mechanical seal or gland packing).

8.1 Explanation of faults


The example illustrated in the diagram serves to facilitate understanding of the
causes of faults/malfunctions and their remedies described in the Trouble-shooting
section.
Many operating faults/malfunctions on pumps are caused by hydraulic phenomena.
The hydraulic behaviour of a pump is illustrated by its characteristic curves H, P, Eta
and NPSH in combination with the system characteristic curves HA and NPSHA as a
function of flow rate Q. The operating point B is given by the intersection between
the system curve HA and the pump's characteristic curve H.
If the cause of a fault or malfunction is unclear, consult your nearest KSB service
centre.

4 Technical description
4.1 Characteristics
CENTAFLEX-A couplings are proven, extremely simple, versatile and offer good
torsional flexibility.

 Simple, compact smooth-faced design.


 Low weight, low moment of inertia.
 High output, high admissible speeds, large bores permitted, rupture-proof
 Large angle of twist with almost linear curve
(appr. 6-8° at nominal torque).
 High elasticity and considerable flexibility in any direction (radial, axial,
angular) with low counter forces acting on shafts and bearings.
 The CENTAFLEX coupling has a shock and vibration absorbing action.
 Torque transmission is absolutely free of play, uniform, silent and electrically
insulating.
 The coupling is low-maintenance. The rubber parts are not subject to wear,
resulting in a long service life and no generation of dirt (rubber particles).
 The rubber element is air flushed all round, resulting in good dissipation of
the generated heat. The rubber element remains cool.
 By slackening the radial screws, the drive can be conveniently separated and
rotated without dismantling.
 Because of the torque, no axial reaction forces at all are applied to the shaft
and bearings.
 The rubber elements are available in a number of different shore hardnesses.
 This allows the torsional stiffness to be varied within wide limits and so
adjusted to the vibration-specific requirements.
 Material: Normal version: Natural rubber, capable of withstanding dynamic
loads and temperature resistant.

4.2 Specifications
The specifications can be found in the catalogue and the dimensions in the
installation drawing.

The devices are vent caps that protect plants or plant components without keeping a

If flammable mixtures are emitted in the operation in relatively large volumes and over a
relatively long period, it must be anticipated that after any ignition there may be stabilized
burning. In such cases suitable additional measures need to be taken to protect the plants,

4.3 Insulation and electric heating


Thermal insulation or electric heating of the devices is sometimes possible, but is only
offered by the manufacturer in individual cases. The manufacturer provides no warranty nor
accepts any liability for any insulation or electric heating of the devices performed by the
operator.
If in certain situations insulation or electric heating is unavoidable, always ensure that:
 only in-line devices are fully enclosed;
 the insulation does not block any moving parts (if available), e.g. weather hoods on
endurance burning flame arresters or valve pallets;
 openings, e.g. condensate drains and pressure compensation openings are kept clear;
 clear passage into the inlet/outlet cross sections is not covered over or obstructed. The
insulation must not impair device venting. We recommend keeping a minimum distance
of 1 x DN, and in any case at least 50 mm (c. 2”) from the flow’s edge;
 any loose insulation materials (e. g. rock wool) are enclosed, secured and covered in
such a way that fibres or particles of the material do not get sucked in;
 the functionality of the devices and the ability to maintain them is assured in every
respect;
 the electric trace heating is approved for such uses;
 the maximum heating temperature is no more than 25°C above the devices’ maximum
operating temperature.

Adapt the thickness of the insulation to each application.

Risk of injury due to lack of expert knowledge!
Lacking professional know-how or doing work the wrong way can cause injuries.
Therefore:
– Do all jobs on the devices only when the plant components are idle.
– Put up a sign at the place where the plant is switched on indicating that work is being
done on the devices.
– Before starting make sure you have sufficient space to do the work.
– Keep the workplace clean and tidy! Parts or tools loosely lying around or on top of each
other are sources of accidents.
– If any components have been taken out, make sure they are installed correctly again
and that all securing elements are put properly back in place.
– Do not do any welding work on the devices!
®
– We recommend having all maintenance and repair work done only by PROTEGO
®
technical support staff or by technicians trained and certified by PROTEGO . For all
such work always adhere in each instance to the prevailing laws and directives in
relation to workplace safety and environmental protection.

DANGER
Risk of injury from pressurised components!
If any parts of the plant are in a pressurised state while maintenance work is being done, it
is possible that device components or escaping substances could cause fatal injuries.
Therefore:
– Carry out maintenance work on the devices only when the tank / plant component is at
zero pressure and is not going to be filled or emptied for the duration of the work.

DANGER
Risk of injury caused by hot and harmful substances!
Opening the device can enable harmful gases and hot substances with a caustic or irritant
effect to escape and cause serious injuries with fatal consequences.
Therefore:
– When working with substances harmful to human health take suitable protective
measures, e. g. wear gloves and breathing apparatus.

The operating company is responsible for the orderly operation of its plant.
 To keep the devices working perfectly they need to be inspected and maintained on a
regular basis. The necessary intervals for this are dependent on the characteristics
(e. g. condensation, sublimation, polymerisation, consistency) of the products in the
plant on the mixtures flowing through the devices and on the mechanical strain to which
they are subjected.
 In the absence of any operational experience, the operating company must inspect the
devices regularly following commission to determine at what intervals maintenance
work is necessary. Based on these findings, define the maintenance intervals and
document them in the operating guidelines.
 The service life of, for example, gaskets and diaphragms (if present), is dependent on
environmental influences, the substances being processed and mechanical strain. No
guarantee can be provided for these consumable parts. Only the operating company is
able to define the required maintenance cycles.

The main component of a PROTEGO flame arrester is the FLAMEFILTER . It is a very
sensible safety-related component and manufactured with great accuracy. It must be
®
ensured at any time that the right FLAMEFILTER is installed in a device. Any mistakes
®
may lead to hazardous incidents. To reduce the danger of confusion the FLAMEFILTER
®
are also indicated by their FLAMEFILTER types (A – Z). Different gaps and special device
®
types require specific FLAMEFILTER types.
®
As a standard the following types are used for FLAMEFILTER in dependence of the gaps:

The conditions of use of a specific device are checked based on the prescribed volume
flow / pressure drop using the associated volume flow diagrams ( Appendix).
Here, it may be required to convert the operating state to the technical standard temperature
and pressure of air ( Appendix).

 A certain degree of clogging of the FLAMEFILTER® needs to be taken into account in


relation to the layout of the devices. Therefore take the percentages listed in the table
below into account when performing size calculations to adjust the volume flow
( example).

Result:
Example 1) Pressure drop
For this DN 4 device with given pressure drop of 50 mbar the result produced is a flow rate
of 3000 m³/h. Taking into account clogging up of the FLAMEFILTER® gap (sw) of 0.9 mm
(80% sizing) the result is a maximum flow rate of 3000 m³/h x 0.8 = 2400 m³/h. As this is
more than the minimum required, the device can be used for these conditions.

Example 2) Volume flow


For this DN 4 device with given flow rate of 1000 m³/h (clogging taken into account, see
table) the result produced is a pressure drop of c. 8 mbar.
This is below the maximum allowable pressure drop. The device can therefore be used
under these conditions.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTROLLER:


TYPE: EFP/FD4e
1. PREFACE.

This operating manual explains the operation of the complete control system.

2. CAUTION.

In order to avoid risk of personal INJURY or damage to the control equipment, READ THIS
MANUAL VERY CAREFULLY. If after reading these instructions doubt exists, do not
hesitate to contact Metron-Eledyne for further clarification.

In the interests of safety pay special attention to the CAUTION notes listed below:

If work has to be carried out on the engine or control equipment, isolate the control equipment
from the A.C and D.C supplies, and remove the start solenoid supplies from control circuit
terminals before work commences. If possible use a temporary label, which draws attention to
this fact.

Before attempting to start the engine during commissioning, ensure that the 'Fuel Stop
Solenoid' is operational. Due to the nature of the equipment, the control system may start the
engine at any time when operating in automatic mode. Ensure all concerned are aware of this
condition by means of an appropriate label, prominently displayed on the engine skid.

When the equipment is energised and on line, ensure all doors are closed and where applicable
locked.

If during commissioning the equipment is energised with the access door to the panel interior
open, make sure that any terminal cover is fitted to avoid the risk of electric shock.

3. GENERAL.

The controller is designed as a fully automatic engine start system based on the requirements of
National Fire Codes NFPA No. 20 for Engine Driven Fire Pump Controllers, IEC 62091,
UL218 and to FM class number 1321/1323.

In these instructions, the following terms used are defined as: -

Visual - Lamp, or meter.

Display - LCD display on the front door (OID).

Audible - Electronic sounder.

Volt free - Remote volt free changeover contacts.

F:\Engineering\Standards\1 D I E S E L\EFP-FD4e\FD4e v5.02\Manuals\Op-FD4e-v5.02-English.doc 3


FD4e.v5.0 OPFD4e-V5.02 Iss 8, 20/01/2016 Metron Eledyne

4. VOLT FREE CONTACTS.

If the volt free is named then its title is active i.e.

Volt Free. Engine Running.


Indicates the contacts are in the engine running position.

If the volt free engine running is said to clear i.e.

Volt Free. Engine Running clears.


Indicates the contacts have changed to the standby position (engine stopped).

5. SUPPLY CONNECTIONS.

Ensure the system is correctly earthed and make interconnections referring to information
contained in the interconnection drawing. Connect AC and DC supplies.

6. QUICK START FEATURE

The quick start feature prompts the user to set up quickly the essential screens for correct use
of this fire pump controller. This feature is initiated by pressing and holding the ‘PILOT’ push
button for 2s. Then the following screens will be required to be completed in the following
order:
Start pressure Stop pressure Delay start Time
Date weekly start time Weekly start day Commissioned date
Double skinned fuel tank Electronic Engine.

7. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDELINES

A. Location
The controller shall be located as close as practical to the diesel engine it controls and within a
line of sight. The controller should not be positioned directly under pipes that could leak water.

B. Mounting
The controller should be mounted using appropriate fixing methods:

If the controller is mounted directly to the engine skid, then anti-vibration mounts should be
used as shown on the general arrangement drawing (6x positions marked ‘A’).

If the controller is mounted to a wall, then it should be mounted using the 4internal mounting
holes (or the external lugs if provided) . Suitable fixings to the wall should be used taking into
consideration the weight of the controller, which is approximately 52 kg. It is recommended
that the controller is mounted at least 300mm above floor level.

Should the controller be mounted using optional legs (plinths) then the controller should be
secured to the floor using the fixing holes provided. Precautions should be taken to ensure that
F:\Engineering\Standards\1 D I E S E L\EFP-FD4e\FD4e v5.02\Manuals\Op-FD4e-v5.02-English.doc 4
FD4e.v5.0 OPFD4e-V5.02 Iss 8, 20/01/2016 Metron Eledyne

the controller does not stand in water.


C. Electrical Connections
Only skilled electrical engineers should be used for making the electrical connections. Only the
gland plate(s) located at the bottom of the enclosure should be used for bringing in the
electrical cables. The gland plate should be removed completely from the enclosure to make
the necessary cable gland openings. On no account should other areas of the enclosure be used
for bringing in electrical cables. The correct cable glands should be used to ensure that the IP
rating and integrity of the enclosure is maintained.
The installer is responsible for ensuring that no metallic foreign objects (such as drilling chips
etc) fall inside the controller onto the electrical circuit. Failure to observe this could result in
damage to the controller and will void the controller warranty.

The cabinet should be specifically earthed, using the external earth bolt provided.

NOTE: It is highly recommended, although not essential, that the following


recommendations are considered:
All signal wiring should be separated from power feeds and supplies. Where the two must be
in close proximity, it is advisable that they located at right angles to each other, minimising the
effect of cross-talk and pick-up.

Signal wiring will be less prone to disturbances if contained within grounded conductive
conduit or trunking. Avoid passing signal cables in close proximity to known interference
sources, or high power electrical equipment where possible.

Ensure good clean areas of contact at either end of the installation, and use the largest practical
gauge of wire to improve signal quality, (maximum 2.5mm diameter cable recommended for
signal wiring).

8. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

Frequent inspection should be made. A schedule for maintenance checks should be determined
by the environment and frequency of use but should be regular enough to ensure the equipment
continues to operate in the designed manner. It is recommended that it should be at least once a
week.
External parts of the enclosure should be periodically cleaned to ensure dust deposits are not
allowed to accumulate.
All components that are replaced must be in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.
Failure to use such components may invalidate the certification/approval/warranty on the
controller and may make the controller dangerous.
Check that all terminations are tight and correct segregation distances are maintained.
All statements, technical information and recommendations contained herein are based on
information and tests we believed to be reliable, the accuracy or completeness thereof are not
guaranteed in accordance with Metron Eledyne’s "Standard Terms & Conditions" and since
conditions of use are outside our control the purchaser should determine the suitability of the
product for its intended use and assumes all risk and liability whatsoever in connection
herewith.

9. OPERATOR INTERFACE DEVICE OID DISPLAY.

The Operator Interface Device (OID) provides visual indication of the alarms, status of system
parameters, and an interface to change set points to configure the FD4e to operate
appropriately for various installation requirements.
Common Tasks Performed Using The OID
Annunciator
Silencing Horn: If a horn is sounding and the alarm is
silence able, a quick press of the
[SILENCE/LAMPTEST] will silence the horn (less than
1 second press).
Resetting Alarms: If the alarm condition has cleared,
press the [RESET/ESC] button BRIEFLY to reset
alarms.
Operating Mode Change: The operational mode that
the controller is in can be changed via the mode switch
and by the OID push buttons. With the mode switch in
the ‘AUTO’ (automatic) position, the ‘AUTO’ indicator
will be illuminated and the controller will be in full
automatic start mode. The test push button is only active
while the mode switch is in the automatic position.
When the mode switch is on the ‘MAN’ (manual)
position, the ‘MANUAL’ indicator will be illuminated
and the controller will be available for manual starting
only. When the mode switch is in the off position,
neither the AUTO or MAN indicator is illuminated.

Test Mode: When controller is in Auto Mode, pressing


and holding the [TEST] button for two or more seconds
will open the pressure drain solenoid thus dropping the
pressure which causes the controller to start the engine.
Pressing and releasing the [TEST] button in Manual
Push buttons LCD Display Mode directly controls the opening and closing of the
drain solenoid. The engine will not automatically start
when in Manual Mode.
Lamp Test: To illuminate and check all the OID LED’s and the horn, press and hold the
[SILENCE/LAMPTEST] button 5 or more seconds or until all the lights turn on.

The Controller may be configured as either "Manual" or "Automatic" stop as required (System
Config Screen 104). "Manual" stop is set as standard. The current status of this setting is
visible on the Main System Status Screen where the letter “A” will appear in the upper right hand
corner of the screen when set to Automatic Stop and an “M” will appear when set for Manual
stop.

17. BATTERY CHARGING.

This battery charger is intended for use only in Metron Eledyne control systems. Use of an
attachment / connector not recommended or sold by Metron Eledyne may result in a risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Do not in any circumstances disassemble the battery charger, there are no user serviceable
parts inside. Incorrect reassembly may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

WARNING NOTICE
The performance of the battery charger is entirely automatic. No operator variables are
provided, the charger is factory preset to the required float voltage, at a maximum current of 10
Amps and NO ADJUSTMENTS MUST BE ATTEMPTED ON SITE or damage to the
batteries may result. Maintenance of batteries should be carried out in accordance with the
instructions issued by the battery manufacturer.

RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASSES.


WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A LEAD ACID/ NI CAD BATTERY IS DANGEROUS .
BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASSES DURING NORMAL BATTERY
OPERATION.
To reduce the risk of battery explosion read this manual completely, and the battery
manufacturers data. Equipment used in the vicinity of the batteries should also be carefully
selected to reduce the risk of battery explosion.

PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
1.Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you
work near a lead acid/ nicad battery.
2.Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or
eyes.
3.Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working
near the battery.
4.If battery acid contacts skin or clothing , wash immediately with soap and water. If acid
enters eye immediately flush with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical
attention immediately.
5.NEVER smoke or allow a spark flame in the vicinity of the battery or the engine.
6.Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery, it may spark or
short the circuit battery or other electrical parts that may cause explosion.
7.Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when working
with an engine battery. Such engine batteries can produce a short circuit current high enough
to weld a ring or similar, causing a severe burn.
8.NEVER charge a frozen battery.

running. To cancel the 1 hour fuel solenoid timer, either press the stop pushbutton or turn the
mode switch to the ‘off’ position at anytime.

34. SD MEMORY CARD

The controller is equipped with an SD (Secure Digital) memory card on the motherboard to
store the Pressure log, Event log, and Auxiliary Alarm configuration information.
The SD card is located on the right hand edge of the motherboard and is removed by pressing
in on the right edge of the card to release from the card holder. When the SD card is removed,
data is still being recorded on temporary flash memory on the motherboard. Once the card is
replaced, the stored data will be written back to the SD Card. When the SD card is removed,
the LCD display will indicate that the card is missing and that is should be replaced. If the card
is not replaced within approximately 1 minute, the alarm will sound and the System Fault LED
will come on. Once the SD card is replaced, the System Fault LED will go out but the Alarm
Silence button must be pressed to silence the alarm horn. The data stored on the SD card is in
standard ASCII text format and can be read by an computer equipped with an appropriate SD
card reader. These are readily available at any electronics store, the maximum size to be used is
1 Gigabyte. The data on the SD card is in the following format:

PressXXX.txt file
This file contains a log of the water pressure, battery 1 and 2 actual voltage, and charger 1 & 2
actual output current and is stored every 15s.
Data is stored in a standard comma delimited file as follows:

35. Special modes of operation specifically for the FD4eU – Option N1

When option N1 is fitted to the FD4eU, then the diesel engine mounted speed pick up device
may be connected directly to the controller. This allows the controller to ‘see’ the actual engine
speed via an electronic module, called PC257 – speed collection board. When the controller
detects engine speed, then the status screen 1, will remove the system start pressure and instead
display the engine RPM.
To set up this function, the following screens are used:
320 Engine running Speed 300-999rpm
This tells the controller at what rpm to stop cranking the engine in automatic mode
(sometimes called crank termination speed). It is at this speed that the engine is defined as
running. This should typically be set at 600 rpm.

321 Engine Overspeed Alarm 1000-9999rpm


When the engine speed exceeds this value, then the engine overspeed alarm is set, and
the engine is automatically shutdown. It should typically be set according to NFPA 20 at the
normal engine rated speed plus 20%.
Note that for test purposes this value can be temporarily set to a lower value to verify the
operation of the engine overspeed system. However, please be sure to set the engine overspeed
parameter 321 back to the full setting when the testing is completed.

322 Pulses per Revolution 0-999


This is a very important set point, since the system uses this value along with the
number of pulses received from the engine to determine the actual RPM of the engine. Note
that if the engine is already equipped with a dedicated speed switch then this parameter 322
should be set to 0, then terminal 2 and 3 should be wired to give the engine run and overspeed
conditions.

Fire Pump Test Meter Installation Instructions
Materials shipped will be as follows:
– One factory calibrated direct reading GPM meter with vent valves and clear hoses assembled and
attached to the meter. The lens of the meter has an “FM Approved” sticker adhered to it as well as a
metal meter tag with the Gerand model number, maximum rated PSI and serial number.
– One calibrated Gerand venturi with an attached metal tag listing the venturi size, the pump GPM, the
meter range and the PSI rating. Adhered to the venturi is a “flow sticker” with an arrow showing the
direction of flow and the suggested minimum straight upstream and downstream pipe diameters.
– One set of 500 PSI hoses with color code ends and brass fittings to connect meter to the venturi.
– One metal installation/operation tag permanently attached to meter via brass chain.

Installation Instructions:
– The venturi must be installed in line with the flow of the system going in the same direction as the arrow
shown on the venturi. A minimum of (5 x Venturi Diameter) in straight pipe upstream and (2 x Venturi
diameter) in straight pipe downstream. The straight pipe lengths must be the same diameter as the venturi.
For example: a 6” Diameter Venturi requires 30” of 6” diameter straight pipe upstream
and 12” of 6” diameter straight pipe downstream of the venturi.
– If the system has been piped with many elbows in the same or in different planes, we suggest longer
straight runs upstream & downstream. These pipe diameters must be the same pipe size as the venturi.
– The meter is then attached via the screws to the welded bracket on the venturi.
– Once the meter is secured to the venturi, screw the ends of the hoses with no valves to the meter (red
to red; green to green). Then, thread the valve ends of the hoses to the venturi (red to red; green to green.
