1. General Information
The SCOUT flowmeter was specially developed for monitoring water filter cartridges. It is used to measure the
amount of filtered water and to display the remaining filter capacity until replacement.
Therefore, the filter-specific nominal-capacity must be entered into the device.
If the capacity is exhausted or if the maximum operating time of 12 month is exceeded, the filter cartridge must be
replaced.
The programming and display unit provides the following information:
•
nominal capacity and remaining filtration capacity of the cartridge
•
total filtrate volume since Flowmeter installation
•
filtrate volume and operation time of the last five installed filter cartridges
•
gal to liter

3. Instructions
3.1
General
•
Read the Installation and Operation Guide carefully before each installation and start of operation.
Follow all steps exactly as indicated in the instructions.
•
Ensure that the flow direction corresponds to the arrows on the sensor unit.
•
It is recommended to mount the sensor horizontally for highest accuracy.
•
Don't expose the Flowmeter to any mechanical stress.
•
Ensure that all seals and connections are made using suitable components (are included).
3.2
Measurement tips
•
Avoid rapidly pulsating water flow
•
Avoid water-air mixture
•
Avoid inductive interference
•
Be aware that the unit is calibrated to measure water flow and hence measurements may vary
with other fluids
