OIL FLOW CHARACTERISTICS

Installation Instructions:

For gravity flow, the minimum recommended static head is 12' above the Oil Controller. To insure sufficient oil flow, the minimum recommended piping to the meter is 1" pipe. In many instances due to oil viscosity or temperature, it is desirable or essential to preheat oil before it enters the meter.
