Please read this information
carefully before use!
Before use, confirm the fluid to be used is
compatible with the meter or consult with
OMEGA for advice.
To prevent damage from dirt or foreign
matter, OMEGA recommends a Y or bas-
ket type 60 mesh strainer be installed as
close as possible to the inlet side of the
meter. (If required, contact OMEGA for fur-
ther information.)
NOTE: When a strainer is installed it should
be regularly inspected and cleaned.
Failure to keep the strainer clean will
dramatically effect flowmeter perfor-
mance.
To prevent damage to the meter, slowly fill
the system with fluid. This will prevent dam-
age caused by air purge.
NOTE: Failure to do this could damage the
meter.
For pump applications, turn off the pump
at the end of each day.

To the owner:
Thank you for purchasing an OMEGA
FPDM Series Flowmeter. Please take a few
minutes to read through the manual before
installing and operating your meter. If you
have any problems with the meter, refer to
the Maintenance and Troubleshooting sec-
tions of the manual.
This manual contains connection and op-
erating instructions for the OMEGA FPDM
Series meters with mechanical displays.
This includes the following models:
FPDM1004 FPDM1006
FPDM1005 FPDM1007
The OMEGA FPDM Series Flowmeter has
incorporated the oval rotor principal into
its design. This has proven to be a reliable
and highly accurate method of measuring
flow. Exceptional repeatability and high ac-
curacy over a wide range of fluid viscosi-
ties and flowrates are features of the
OMEGA FPDM Series Flowmeter design.
The low pressure drop and high pressure
rating means the OMEGA FPDM Series
Flowmeter is suitable for both gravity and
pump (in-line) applications.
The OMEGA FPDM Series Flowmeters are
available in either Aluminum or 316 Stain-
less Steel. Standard rotors are made from
PPS.
The OMEGA FPDM Series mechanical dis-
plays have a resettable batch totalizer and
non-resettable accumulative totalizer.
