If	the	measuring	device	does	not	automatically	convert	the	K	
factor,	use	the	following	conversion	formulae	before	setting	
the	parameters	of	the	device:
•	 K	factor	in	pulse/US	gallon	=	K	factor	in	pulse/litre	x	3.785
•	 K	factor	in	pulse/UK	gallon	=	K	factor	in	pulse/litre	x	4.546
Two	versions	of	the	S020	in	DN15	and	DN20	exist,	having	
different	K	factors.
Only	version	2,	identified	by	the	"v2"	marking,	is	available	
from	March	2012.	The	"v2"	marking	can	be	found:
•	 on	the	bottom	of	the	DN15	fitting	in	plastic:
V2
• on the side of the DN15 or DN20 fitting in metal:
V2
Do	not	use	a	fitting	S020	in	sizes	DN6,	DN8,	DN15,	DN15	
Version	2	(V2)	or	DN20	Version	2	(V2)	with	a	paddle-wheel	
flowmeter	types	8020,	8024,	8025,	8026.
