4. Comment
This installation manual is intended for qualified specialists only. Careful installation in line with
these instructions and in accordance with the applicable technical rules is important for safe opera-
tion and is a pre-requisite for correct consumption metering.
5. Initial assembly of the measurement capsule meter
5.1. Carefully rinse line.
5.2. Block and empty the line by closing the flat or mains stop valve.
5.3. Remove installation protection cap.
5.4. Ensure it is actually a Allmess (AMS) connection interface. The AMS flush-mounted parts
(FMT) can be recognised by the threaded ring with four claws and the internal closing
thread. Only use the Minolas measurement capsule in Allmess flush-mounted parts with
the 3/4" ground stamp!
5.5. Unscrew the threaded ring with the installation wrench from the FMT (figure 1). The
threaded ring will not be used again! Remove the blind plate and the old O-ring and clean
dirt from the FMT, particularly of course on the sealing surface of the O-ring.
5.6. Remove the Minolas measurement capsule from the packaging. The threaded ring and
lifting ring are already installed at the factory, the O-ring is enclosed. (Fig. 2).
5.7. Check whether the measurement capsule fits into the intended connection interface:
Marking of new connection interfaces = A34.
5.8. Insert the new O-ring provided with the measurement capsule into the FMT (Fig. 3). It must
be well lubricated.
5.9. Only the original manufacturer seals must be used.
5.10. Insert the measurement capsule into the installation wrench by the claws (figure 4).
5.11. Use the installation wrench to guide the Minolas into the FMT. Pay attention to the flow
direction in accordance with the arrow on the FMT and on the bottom of the measurement
insert (grid at the inlet).
5.12. Press the measurement capsule into the FMT until the thread catches a little. Using slight
pressure briefly turning anti-clockwise, find the start of the thread and then tighten the
thread ring in a clockwise direction.
5.13. Make sure that the thread ring is fully screwed into the FMT. Only still the crowns of the
thread ring are visible. If necessary, check with a small screwdriver that the thread ring is
deeper than the upper edge of the FMT (Fig. 5).
5.14. Set line gently under pressure by opening the flat or mains stop valve. Carefully check
seal and function (forward running). If the meter is running backwards the FMT was not
installed in accordance with the flow direction. Dismantle the measurement capsule, turn
it by 180° and install.
5.15. If not already done, turn the register to the read position and seal the meter.
5.16. Mark the connection interface with sticker A34.
5.17. Press the standard rosette (Art. 114672) onto the meter cap on the wall until the stop. A
special rosette must be ordered (Art. 100344) possibly with extension sleeves (Art. 100625),
for installation depths below 35 mm. When replacing Allmess capsule meter against
ZENNER Minolas, the existing rosette possibly can be used again. For attachment to the
meter then a separate adapter ring (Art. 153127) is required.
