Forming the Internal Battery

Battery Operation
All portable systems include battery chargers that operate from an AC voltage source. We
strongly recommend that you "form" and charge the battery before operating the system for
the first time.
The Charge Indicator LED
A battery status indicator shows the status of its internal battery and charging circuits. The
indicator LED color switches between red or green based upon the flow meter operation.

Forming the Internal Battery
The flow meter uses an internal, rechargeable battery pack designed for a rapid charge cycle
(NiMH, 12 VDC, 3200mAH). The batteries have to be "formed" to deliver their optimum
operating time, which is approximately 7 hours. This is accomplished by performing a
minimum of two complete discharge/charge cycles.
Note
To remove, replace or dispose of the internal battery pack refer to Maintenance and Service
section in the instruction manual.
