Recordall® Compound Series Meters
Door Seal Replacement
User Manual
RCS-UM-00075-EN-02 (September 2013)
DESCRIPTION
The door seal in the valve assembly for the 2" and 3" Compound Series meters is replaceable, should it become necessary,
with the use of the Door Seal Replacement Tool Kit (64201-001.) This instruction sheet provides step-by-step instructions for
using this kit. The 4" and 6" valve assemblies do not permit door seal replacement. If service or replacement is required, a new
complete valve assembly must be installed.
DOOR SEAL REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
Disassembling the Unit
1. Remove the bolts from the cover assembly and lift the cover
off the housing. Removing the cover assembly exposes the
valve assembly for service.
2. Remove the lock pawl.
3. Turn the valve assembly counter-clockwise to unscrew it from
the housing, then lift it out of the housing.
4. Remove the door seal bolt, nut and washers from the
valve assembly.
5. Place one of the spacer bolts through the spacer and into the
threaded hole on the back of the valve assembly.
6. Use a wrench to turn the bolt head clockwise to open the
door about 1/2", exposing the door seal.
The kit is made up of a spacer and 2 bolts—
one with a washer for a 2" meter, and a larger
bolt with no washer for a 3" meter.
