All Caterpillar Diesel Engines Features/Benefits
* Obtain a more accurate reading of fuel flow rates* Slowly closing the needle valve until air bubbles are no longer visible in the fuel flowmeter sightglass will result in a more accurate reading Measuring Fuel Flow Accurately
When using the Caterpillar Fuel Flow Monitor System, 1U-5430, 1U-5540, and 1U-5450, it may be difficult to accurately measure the return fuel flow because of air bubbles in the fuel. This will cause the turbine flowmeter to read higher fuel flow rates than actual.
It is recommended that a needle valve (B) be installed at the outlet of the flowmeter (A) reading return fuel flow. See the illustration.
Start with the needle valve fully open. By slowly closing the valve until air bubbles are not visible in the fuel flowmeter sightglasses, a more accurate reading of the return fuel flow can be obtained.
