Index Rotation


UNIT AND INDEX ROTATION

In general, the label side of the index base
plate (front) should face the front of the meter.
This allows the MTEK6000 EFC to also face
the front of the meter. In certain applications,
the MTEK6000 EFC and index can be
installed 180

0

from the standard position so

that viewing of the MTEK6000 EFC is
acceptable. To rotate the unit and index, refer
to Fig. 2-3 and do the following:

1. Remove the 4 bolts at location A.

2. Rotate the base plate 180

0

clockwise so

that the front label side is now facing the
rear of the unit.


3. Insert the 4 bolts into location B with the

two lockwashers as shown. Fig. 2-3
shows the index orientation after the
rotation is completed. (DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN).


COUNTER MASKING

NOTE
When you have changed the input drive
value, be sure to remove the existing drive
value label from the window and replace it
with a new label that states the current input
drive value. For your convenience,
Metretek, Inc. supplies extra labels with the
MTEK6000 EFC.
