ALWAYS use new gskets
(PE or EPDM).
The coupling’s seling
surfce must be clen
nd even.
The piping must be parallel and match the meter.

If  pipe instlltion is skew to the effect tht the prescribed tightening
torques would be exceeded,  telescopic coupling ought to be instlled.

1.5 Operating pressure
In order to void cvittion nd secure correct mesurement under
ll circumstnces the operting pressure in the pipe instlltion must
observe the test conditions of OIML R 49, which mens tht the sttic
pressure immeditely fter the meter (downstrem) must lwys be
minimum 0.03 MP (0.3 br).
You must lwys use new gskets in originl qulity. Following gskets
cn be used:
Cold water Hot water
¾” 2 mm EPDM or PE 2 mm PTFE with silicte fill
1” 3 mm EPDM or PE 3 mm PTFE with silicte fill
The flow direction is indicted by n rrow on the side of the meter cse.
During instlltion it must be secured tht the meter is mounted without
mechnicl bis in the connection pipes. The couplings must be
tightened with mximum the following torque:
¾” 15 Nm
1” 30 Nm
If  tight connection cnnot be obtined within these limits, the pipe
instlltion must be corrected in order to remove strins. Alterntively,
 telescopic coupling must be instlled.Such couplings cn be supplied
by Kmstrup A/S.
For seling you cn use the seling wire holes on the lower side of the
threded connections.
Mounting the meter you must mke sure tht the threded length of the
couplings does not prevent proper tightening of the seling surfce nd
tht PN10 or PN16 couplings re used.
MULTICAL® 21 hs  lrge-meshed striner (filter) pre-mounted in the
meter’s inlet connection.
Furthermore,  nonreturn vlve cn be mounted conceled in the
meter’s outlet socket. 2 or 3 mm gskets must be used for mounting.
The non-return vlve must be pressed into the outlet of the meter; the
blck o-ring pointing inwrds in the meter. Press firmly the vlve into
the meter outlet socket until it reches limit stop.

Service
When the meter hs been mounted in the system neither welding nor
freezing is llowed. Dismount the meter from the system before strting
such work.
In order to fcilitte replcement of the meter, closing vlves should be
mounted on both sides of the meter.
Under norml operting conditions no pipe striner is required in front
of the meter. Non-return vlves must be mounted ccording to locl
regultions.
1.3 Installation angle of MULTICAL® 21
MULTICAL® 21 cn be mounted t ll ngles nd positions.
Kmstrup A/S recommend tht the disply is mounted so tht it is esy
to red, if possible.
Thus, the meter cn be mounted in  usul horizontl instlltion. It cn
be mounted verticlly in n scending pipe, it cn be mounted t ny
ngle nd it cn be mounted with its disply pointing downwrds, e.g
under  roof.
Mounting the meter in  downpipe, you must be wre tht the disply
will in tht cse be ’upside down’.
1.4 Straight inlet
MULTICAL® 21 requires neither stright inlet nor stright outlet to meet
the South Africn Ntionl Stndrd SANS 1529-1:2006. A stright inlet
section will only be necessry in cse of hevy flow disturbnces before
the meter.
1 General information
Red this guide before instlling the wter meter.
MULTICAL® 21 is  compct electronic wter meter used for wter
consumption mesurement in the tp wter supplies of homes,
commercil nd industril buildings. The meter is vilble in two
versions for cold nd hot wter respectively.
MULTICAL® 21 is intended for mintennce-free opertion for up to 16
yers, depending on the instlled bttery type.
MULTICAL® 21 is hermeticlly closed, nd it is, therefore, impossible
to service the meter without breking the sel. This mens tht ll
service, including bttery chnge, must be crried out by n uthorized
Kmstrup Service Center.
Certin chnges of configurtion, however, re possible vi the built-in
opticl eye without dismounting the meter from the instlltion. Further
detils pper from dt sheet nd technicl description.

(indoors mounted in utility rooms nd
outdoors in meter wells). Instlltion in
direct sunlight must be voided.
1.2 Installation requirements
MULTICAL® 21 hs built-in dt communiction, which enbles remote
reding of the meter.
If instlled in pits or bsements the meter must in some cses be fitted
with n externl ntenn in order to secure optimum communiction.
The ntenn must be plced outside pit or bsement.
Prior to instlltion of MULTICAL® 21 the system should be flushed while
 fitting piece replces the meter. Mount the meter with couplings.
Be wre, when instlling the wter meter in existing threded piping,
tht the coupling’s nut must grb t lest two full threds on the meter.
Otherwise, Kmstrup A/S recommends replcement of the couplings.
1.6 Info codes and display
When MULTICAL® 21 leves Kmstrup A/S, it hs been tested nd
verified nd the counter hs been reset.
The number of m3 is displyed by five lrge digits. The smll digits re
decimls fter the point. (or number of liters). A number of info codes
cn be displyed, of which ’DRY’ nd ’RADIO OFF’ will be ctivted nd
flsh upon delivery. Furthermore, the two smll squres in the bottom
right-hnd corner flsh to indicte tht the meter is ctive.
Info code ’DRY’ indictes tht there is ir in the meter, the info code
disppers when the meter is wter-filled.
The info code ’RADIO OFF’ indictes tht the meter is still in trnsport
mode with the built-in rdio trnsmitter turned off. The trnsmitter turns
on utomticlly when the first litre of wter hs run through the meter.
The rdio trnsmitter remins on, nd the info code signl in the disply
switches off.
The flow rrows in the left side of the disply indicte wter flow through
the meter. If the wter is stgnnt, ll rrows will be off.
The tble below describes the different info codes in the disply.
The figure fter the ’A’ sttes how mny times the meter hs been
djusted. In  completely new meter both of these chrcters will be
out.
Lbortories which hve reverified nd djusted or reset the meter must
supply the meter with  lbel with informtion on the current djustment
figure.

Meaning
LEAK The Wter hs not been stgnnt in the
meter for minimum one continuous hour
during the ltest 24 hours.
This cn be  sign of  leky fucet or toilet
cistern.
BURST The wter flow hs exceeded 
preprogrmmed limit for minimum 30
minutes which is  sign of  burst pipe.
TAMPER Attempt of frud. The meter is no longer
vlid for billing purposes.
DRY The meter is not wter-filled.
REVERSE The wter flows through the meter in the
wrong direction.
RADIO OFF The meter is still in trnsport mode with
the built-in rdio trnsmitter turned off.
The trnsmitter turns on utomticlly
when the first litre of wter hs run through
the meter.
