1. Ensurethattheisolatingvalveoneachtubeis closed and that the equalizing valve on the sideofthecommissioningmeterisfullyopen.2. Connect each tube (recommended opposite endoftheisolatingvalves,thoughitdoesnot matterwhichend)withap/tneedle.3. Removemetalprotectioncapsonp/tneedles.4. Put the p/t needles into the p/t plugs on the valvethatistobemeasured.(Theredtubeis tobeconnectedtothe inletsideof thevalve andthebluetubewiththeoutletside)5.
