3. CALIBRATED ORIFICE (4)—CONICAL FLOAT (5)
Check their mechanical state for scratching, impact or chemical attack. If the float is in bad 
condition it must be changed. If the calibrated orifice is damaged the metering tube and the float 
must be changed. In both cases the flow meter has to be re-calibrated. 
 
Float for sanitary use 
Two special tools are necessary to disassemble the float (5) from the flow meter. They can be 
supplied on demand by TECFLUID, S.A. 
These tools fit into the lateral guides of the float (5) and of the end of the float (7).
Once the tools have been fitted into their respective guides, turn the float’s end as if it were a nut. 
That way the float will be separated from the float end, and the float can be taken out of the top of 
the meter and the float end from the bottom of it. 
Cleaning of the inside of the flow meter and/or the float can be effected when this is disassembled.
Clean with suitable products and soft brushes, NEVER WITH METALLIC UTENSILS.
To re-assemble the float again in the flow meter, reverse the aforementioned process, making sure 
that the O ring (6) is correctly placed between the float and the floats end. Tighten the float end 
moderately onto the float. 
If you are interested in acquiring the special TECFLUID tools please indicate for which nominal 
diameter they are required.
