INSTALLATION
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW, (NMEA 2000, K Series Systems)
To Ensure System Accuracy, Follow All Installation Instructions.
• Sensor Placement. Determine where the Flow Sensor, or Flow Sensor-Pulsation Damper assembly is to be installed. Install the
sensor, or sensor-pulsation damper assembly so that the two fuel flow arrows, (Î Î) or the, (IN and OUT) markings are on a
horizontal plane. All orientation arrows, (Ï) must be pointing up. The forward sensor or forward sensor-pulsation damper
assembly must be installed downstream of the primary filter. Do not install the sensor or either sensor assembly at a high point in
the fuel system. This could negatively impact system accuracy by trapping air. The fuel return line between the return sensors’
outlet port and fuel tank should be at least 12” long and have a 1 to 2” upward rise. This keeps the return sensor flooded,
improving accuracy. Place sensor assemblies in a protected location away from water spray.

• Determine fitting type & size. Minimize the number of elbows and fittings. If swivel fittings are used, (JIC or SAE) their mating
surfaces must be sealed with Copper Conical Sealing Washer, (Connie Seals) or fitting seals. Fitting seals may be purchased
through Fittings Inc. in Seattle, WA (206) 767-4670, 1-800-552-0632, or a local hydraulic supply house.
