01A Series

Electronic Digital Meter

o w n e r ' s

Important Notice

The 01A Series meter is for use with

gasoline (up to 15% alcohol blends such

as E15), diesel fuel (up to 20% biodiesel

blends such as B20), biodiesel (B100) and

kerosene. Do not use to meter water or

chemicals. Do not use for measuring fuel

or other liquids into aircraft.

This meter is not legal for trade application.

The 01A Series meter is very sensitive to

electrical "noise" and may not operate

correctly if located near some electrical

equipment.

Calibration

This meter has a permanent factory

calibration for measuring gasoline, diesel

fuel or kerosene. If installed and used

correctly, inaccuracies of no greater than

±5% will be obtained.

Installation

Install the meter at the end of the fuel

hose adjacent to the nozzle. This meter

may also be installed in-line either hori-

zontally or vertically. Install as follows:

1. Remove nozzle from hose.

2. Wrap all connections with 3 to 4 wraps

of thread tape. Ensure the tape does

not intrude into the flow path.

3. Attach meter to hose with arrow on out-

let port pointed in the direction of flow.

4. Attach nozzle to meter. If necessary,

use the enclosed 3/4-inch fitting.

5. With a wrench, tighten the meter at the

housing ends.

NOTE: If the meter is located in a rigid

piping system where the fluid is trapped

(by gravity, valves, nozzles), thermal

expansion of the fluid can create

pressure spikes that can damage a

meter. Install a thermal relief valve or

otherwise allow for thermal expansion

of the fluid.

Operation

Batch and Cumulative Totals

The 01A Series meter maintains two totals.

Press the DISPLAY button briefly to switch

between them. The batch total may be

reset to measure flow during a single use.

The cumulative total provides continuous

measurement and may not be manually

reset. When the cumulative total reaches

a maximum reading of 9999, it will

automatically reset to zero.

The batch total will display as TTL1 and

the cumulative total as TTL2.

Activate the Meter

Turn the 01A Series meter ON by starting

fuel flow or briefly pressing the DISPLAY

button. The meter will display the batch

or cumulative total from last use.

The meter is programmed to conserve

power by automatically turning OFF if not

used for about one minute.

Reset Batch Total

Press DISPLAY briefly to display the batch

total. Hold the DISPLAY button for three

seconds to reset the batch total to zero.

Maintenance

Proper handling and care will extend the

life and service of the meter.

Turbine Rotor

The 01A Series meter is virtually

maintenance-free. However, it is important

that the rotor moves freely. Keep the meter

clean and free of contaminants.

If the rotor does not turn freely, apply a

penetrating lubricant on the rotor, shaft

and bearings. Remove any debris or

deposits from the rotor using a soft brush

or small probe. Be careful not to damage

the turbine rotor or supports.

CAUTION

Blowing compressed air through

the turbine assembly could

damage the rotor.

Battery Replacement

The 01A Series meter is powered by two

AAA alkaline batteries, which may be

replaced while the meter is installed.

When batteries are removed or lose power,

the batch and cumulative totals reset to

zero but the factory calibration is retained.

If the meter display becomes dim or blank,

replace the batteries as follows:

1. Remove the four Phillips-head screws

from the face of the meter and lift the

faceplate from the turbine.

2. Remove the old batteries and clean

any corrosion from the terminals.

3. Install new batteries, ensuring the

positive posts are in the correct

position.

4. When the batteries are replaced, the

faceplate will power ON. Check the

display to ensure normal functions have

resumed before reassembling.

5. Reseat batteries, if necessary, and

position the faceplate on the turbine

housing. To avoid moisture damage,

make sure the O-ring is fully seated.

The O-ring may need to be stretched

to seat properly. Tighten the four

screws on the faceplate.
