Repair Bench Tanks Cart Large Meter Test Figure 1 - Typical meter shop layout Desk Files Breakdown Bench Sink Acid or Hone Cleaning 1.1 [Fig. 1] illustrates the layout of a typical meter shop. Before setting the testing equipment, review this layout and select a location based on the following: Note: The drain hole in the end of the pan should run to the tank sump or to a floor drain. Note: An air chamber or expansion tank, as shown in [Fig. 2], just ahead of the inlet valve will reduce water hammer when large-flow tests are stopped quickly, preventing possible damage to meters or piping. 1.2. Uncrate and remove any packing tape from the test bench and calibrated tank and position them as desired. Unpack and sort all supplied adapters and equipment; check for damage. If any item is damaged in transit, notify the transportation company and The Ford Meter Box Company. 1.3. The bench should be installed on a level floor. As shown in [Fig. 3], the bench should be level through axis A-B. This will allow the slope on the pan to drain water to outlet (C). The tanks must be set so the water discharge from the bench (D) will empty into the tank. Figure 2 - Air Chamber D A B C Figure 3 - Bench layout 4

Installation Instructions for Standard, Akron and Indianapolis Test Benches 2 Plumbing Connections 2.1 Connect water supply piping to the inlet valve of the bench when the bench and tank position are set [Fig. 4]. Inlet Valve Note: The supply of water to the inlet of the bench should provide for large-flow tests, if required. Connect the testing equipment to a supply line at least one size larger than the inlet valve (example: 1-1/4" inlet pipe to 1" inlet valve). Note: The Standard Bench and Indianapolis Bench have an inlet ball valve tapped for a 1" pipe connection. The center line of the inlet valve is 34-1/2" above floor level for the Standard Bench and 34" for the Indianapolis Bench. Figure 4 - Standard Test Bench Note: The Indianapolis Bench requires a quarterinch pipe leading to the four-way, piston-operated valve on the inlet clamping cylinder. This valve operates the inlet clamping cylinder that serves all testing stations. Connect this quarter-inch line to the water supply piping ahead of the inlet valve. Note: The Akron Bench inlet ball valve is tapped for a 2" pipe connection, 40-1/4" above the floor level. A quarter-inch pipe leading to the four-way, piston-operating valve near the inlet cylinder is required to operate the clamps that hold the idlers or meters. Connect this quarter-inch line to the water supply piping ahead of the inlet valve; there is one valve for each test station. 5

Installation Instructions for Standard, Akron and Indianapolis Test Benches 3 Calibrated Tank Installation 3.1 If possible, mount the tanks on a substantial concrete floor, or ideally on a concrete pedestal about 10" in height. This additional height will place the water level at test-volume in a conveniently readable position. The layout should permit the operator to observe water draining from the tank valve and the water level in the tank sight gauge while operating the outlet flow control valve. [Fig. 6 and 7] (next page) illustrate top views of two suggested layouts. Figure 5 - Plumb tanks 3.2 Plumb with a plumb-line on the aluminum calibration strip. Plumb the tanks in two directions as shown in [Fig. 5]. Use the front and the side of the calibration strip for plumb points. Note: Tanks are calibrated with O.E.M. drain valves. Alternate valve replacement may cause inaccurate test results. Pictured above are the 10-gallon and 100-gallon tanks (10-GF-SS and 100-GF- SS), ordinarily used together, as are the 1-cubic foot and 10-cubic foot tanks (1-F- SS and 10-FG-SS). In nearly all cases two tanks are recommended, the smaller for low and intermediate tests and the larger for high-flow tests. Catalog<br /> Number Nominal<br /> Size Dia.

Installation Instructions for Standard, Akron and Indianapolis Test Benches 4a - Installing the Testerate Indicator and Gauges Indianapolis & Standard Benches Standard Testerate Indicator for Standard and Indianapolis Test Benches Catalog No. KTI 4a.1. Install the Testerate Indicator on the outlet of the bench in a vertical position, with the large end of the glass tube on top. See caution on the next page for Testerate Indicator operation. Note: The Ford Testerate Indicator is a precision instrument and requires careful handling for best results. The glass tube will withstand a pressure of 150 lbs. per square inch; however, the glass is not guaranteed against breakage in service. The glass tube is surrounded by the Testerate Indicator frame and two clear plastic covers. Do not operate the unit without the covers. If the unit is damaged in transit, notify the transportation company and The Ford Meter Box Company. See Caution on next page. Note: The indicator has a piece of flexible plastic inserted to keep the rotor from moving during shipment. To remove the plastic tubing, just pull it from the upper (outlet) end of the indicator. After removing the plastic tubing, the indicator is ready for installation. Note: The Testerate Indicator is tapped for 1" pipe at both ends. The piping should be secure and not subject to vibration. 4a.2. Connect the swinging discharge pipe to the indicator so the discharge flows into the calibration tank. [Fig. 8, next page] In order to prevent twisting the Testerate Indicator frame, use two wrenches to connect the swinging discharge pipe assembly. Hold one wrench on the brass fitting on the top of the indicator and use the other to tighten the swing discharge pipe assembly nut. 8

Installation Instructions for Standard, Akron and Indianapolis Test Benches 4a - Installing the Testerate Indicator and Gauges Indianapolis & Standard Benches (continued) 4a.3. The test bench includes two pressure gauges. Screw the gauges into the petcocks at each end of the bench [Fig. 8, below]. NOTE: The pressure gauges supply information on pressure drop across the bench and are not necessary for testing meters. Important Information for Proper Operation of Testerate Indicator: CAUTION: The Testerate Indicator is a delicate instrument and is easily damaged by abuse or improper use. One of the common ways to damage the Testerate Indicator is to have the blow-off valve closed when the inlet valve is opened. This compresses the air in the meters. If the outlet valve is then opened abruptly, the compressed air rushes through the Testerate Indicator causing violent movement of the rotor inside the glass gauge tube. This could cause damage to the indicator. WARNING: When operating the test bench, make sure the blow-off valve is open while opening the inlet valve. Do not close the blow-off valve until the system has purged itself of air. When testing begins, open the outlet valve slowly as some air will remain between the outlet valve and Testerate Indicator.

Installation Instructions for Standard, Akron and Indianapolis Test Benches 4b - Installing the Digital Indicator Outlet (DIO) and Gauges Akron Benches 4b.1. Install the DIO on the outlet of the bench in a vertical position. 4b.2. Connect the swinging discharge pipe to the DIO so the discharge flows into the calibration tank. Hold one wrench on the brass fitting on the top of the DIO and use the other to tighten the swing discharge pipe assembly nut. 4b.3. The test bench includes two pressure gauges. Screw the gauges into the petcocks at each end of the bench [Fig. 9 below]. NOTE: The pressure gauges supply information on pressure drop across the bench and are not necessary for testing meters.
