DISASSEMBLY AND CLEANING POST TESTING

CAUTION: When using water as a test medium a

water/rust inhibitor solution must be used in order

to prevent rusting after testing. Use 5% solution

QC1208, or equivalent (Ex. .5 oz./gallon = 500-gallon

tank ~2 gallons QC1208).

After successful test (if water is used), the following must

be completed.

1. Drain thoroughly.

2. The measuring tube housing, stators etc. must be

cleaned and dried by means of hot air or high-velocity

air blow o, after disassembly.

a. Remove the Internal Parts Kits

i. Reference Bulletin MN02010 for detailed

instructions.

b. Remove all the ﬂuid from the inside of the outer

housing; the carbon steel housing must be dried

thoroughly.

c. Disassemble the Internal Parts Kits

i. Reference Bulletin MN02010 for detailed

instructions.

d. Internal Parts Kits Components – Once

disassembled clean and dry all surfaces of

residual ﬂuid. In addition, each bearing should

be cleaned with a dry, clean, lint-free cloth.

e. If the meter is being placed in long term storage,

refer to step 1b of the Long Term Storage section

of this document prior to reinstalling the internal

parts kit assembly.

f. Once all components are clean and dried,

reassemble as appropriate.

i. Reference Bulletin MN02010 for detailed

instructions.

ii. After assembling the IPK, carefully rotate the rotor

in the measuring tube. If the rotor doesn’t rotate

freely, inspect all parts for proper alignment.

STORAGE

1. If the meter is not installed as soon as it is received,

it is recommended that the complete meter assembly

be stored under protective cover in an environmentally

controlled area (humidity is greatest concern). Use

original factory packaging.

2. Store the turbine meter in a safe area to avoid damage.

Protect the housing and components from external

impact of any kind.

3. Seal the inlet and outlet ﬂanges of meter housing with

ﬂange covers to prevent intrusion of contaminants.

4. Examine housing for damage before its commissioning.
