3. Description
3.1 Configurations
The SEM-100SS electronic ow meter employs positive displacement
nutating disk technology to meter liquids of various viscosities with great
accuracy and nominal pressure loss. Stainless steel and plastic construction
make the SEM-100SS an extremely versatile meter, suitable for use with
many chemicals and petroleum products.
The SEM-100SS ow meter features a large LCD display, an anti-glare
screen with back light, large positive touch buttons, and simple one-touch
operation, making the meters easy to read and easy to use in both high
light and low light settings.
The SEM-100SS ow meter is a positive displacement, nutating disk, uid
metering unit. As uid ows through the unit, it causes the nutating disk
to move which in turn causes the rotation of a hermetically sealed magnet
disk. The meter electronic assembly counts the number of revolutions of the
magnet and mathematically determines, based on the calibration number,
the quantity of liquid that has passed through the meter. The self-contained
electronic assembly features a large Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), and
simple four-button operation.

4. Installation and operation
4.1 Unpacking the meter
Unpack the meter, and ensure that meter conguration and materials of
construction are correct for your application.
4.2 Installation
Flow can be metered in either direction through the SEM-100SS ow meter.
Thread the meter inlet into the female discharge port of the pump or line.
Using an elbow or coupling, screw the discharge hose onto the other
port of the meter. Use thread sealant tape or pipe dope to seal thread
connections as necessary.
DO NOT over tighten threaded connections. Breakage can
occur resulting in fluid exposure and leakage.
DO NOT mount meter in a load bearing manner. Excessive
loads can cause breakage, resulting in fluid exposure and leakage.

4.3 Calibration and operation
Wakes up display in Current Total mode. Unit will automatically
shut off after 40 seconds with no input.
Resets Current Total to zero. Also used to activate back light,
enter CAL-3 mode and as the “UP ARROW” during
calibrations.
Press and hold to display “TOTAL-2”. Also used to enter CAL-2
mode, and as the “DOWN ARROW” during calibrations.
Push to enter into the three calibration modes, starting with
CAL-1.
4.3.1 Calibration
The SEM-100SS Flow Meter has three calibration options, CAL-1,
CAL-2, and CAL-3. The ow meter can be calibrated in any unit desired
(i.e. gallons, liters, pounds, acres, pints, etc.). CAL-1 requires pumping
5 units of uid. CAL-2 requires pumping a known quantity of any units;
this quantity is then entered into the electronics. CAL-3 allows calibration
without pumping uid by manually changing the calibration constant.
Before performing meter calibration, turn on the pump and purge
the system of all air. For best results, calibrate at normal dispensing
conditions, i.e. ow rate and pressure.

Flowserve.com 12PUIOM000649-00-UIM (EN/AQ) August 2022
SEM-100SS User Instructions
CAL-1 Calibration:
1. Press “ON” button to wake up meter.
2. Press and hold the “Reset” button to zero (“.00”) the Current
Total screen
3. Press “CAL-1” to enter calibration sequence.
4. Pump process liquid into a calibrated container that holds ve units
(gallons, liters, etc.)
Note: The display will blink as uid is being pumped.
5. Press “CAL-1” to complete the calibration process.
Note: The display will return to the Current Total screen and read
the previous total.
CAL-2 Calibration:
1. Press “ON” button to wake up meter.
2. Press and hold the “Reset” button to zero (“.00”) the Current
Total screen.
3. Press “CAL-1” to enter calibration sequence.
4. Press “CAL-2” to enter the CAL-2 calibration mode.
5. Dispense desired amount.
Note: For greatest accuracy pump a minimum of 9.5 liters (2.5
gallons). The minimum amount required is 1.9 liters (0.5 gallons).
6. Press “CAL-1”.

7. Press “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys to enter the amount of uid that
was pumped in the desired units.
Note: The display will return to the Current Total screen and read the
previous total.
Note: “Err” will be displayed if too few or too many counts have been
received during the calibration. A volume between 0.5 to 20 units must
be recorded for a valid calibration. If “Err” is displayed, no calibration
change has taken place.
CAL-3 Calibration:
1. Press “CAL-1” to enter calibration mode.
2. Press “CAL-3”. The current CAL-3 number will show.
3. Press the “UP” and “DOWN” arrow keys to adjust to a known
CAL-3 number.
4. Press “CAL-1” to enter the new number and complete the calibration
process.
Note: Use of the CAL-3 function will override any previous calibrations.
Note: A typical “CAL-3” number for water is 600. Recording the
“CAL-3” numbers for specic uids after calibration, and resetting the
meter to those numbers when the uid is pumped again is a convenient
method to quickly and accurately calibrate the meter.

5. Maintenance
It is the nal operator’s responsibility to ensure that all maintenance
steps are carried out by authorized and qualied personnel who have
adequately familiarized themselves with the subject matter by studying this
manual in detail.
5.1 Battery removal and replacement
If the LCD display becomes dim, the battery should be replaced. The meter
electronics can be removed without exposure to uid inside the meter.
Open valve to relieve system pressure and do not pressurize the
system during this procedure.
5.1.1 Battery removal
To replace battery, remove the 8 screws (DD6P-43A) that hold the electronic
assembly to the meter assembly. Remove the electronic assembly. Remove
and dispose of used batteries.
5.1.2 Battery replacement
Install the new AAA Batteries into the battery holder. Note the polarity
markings on the batteries. The positive end of one battery should face the
red wire and the negative end of the other battery should face the black
wire. Press the “ON” button to check power supply.
Inspect gasket (S10-06SS) for damage. If the gasket (S10-06SS) is
damaged, replace with new. (See section 6: Parts List and Parts Diagram)

Flowserve.com 16PUIOM000649-00-UIM (EN/AQ) August 2022
SEM-100SS User Instructions
Place the gasket and electronic assembly onto the meter assembly.
Reinstall the 8 screws (DD6P-46A) to secure the electronic assembly to the
meter assembly. Tighten the screws to 32-36 inch-pounds in a star pattern
to avoid any leakage.
5.2 Meter Chamber Removal
Exposure to chemicals can cause bodily harm. Before
disassembling, thoroughly flush the meter with water. Always wear
appropriate gloves, eye protection and any other necessary PPE
while working with chemicals.
Ensure that the meter is not under pressure before continuing.
Remove the 8 screws (DD6P-46A) to remove electronic assembly (S10-11B
COMPLETE). Remove the 4 screws (SFM10000-19) that secure the meter
plate (SFM10000-14A) to the uid housing (SFM10000-13A). Remove the
meter plate and O-ring (SFM10000-18). The meter chamber can now be
removed for cleaning or replacement.
5.3 Meter assembly procedure
Ensure that the bottom O-ring (SFM10000-17) is in place. Insert the
meter chamber into the uid housing (SFM10000-13A). Place O-ring
(SFM10000-18) around the bottom of the meter plate (SFM10000-14A)
and place on top of the uid housing (SFM10000-13A). Secure with 4 short
screws (SFM10000-19) torqued to 32-36 inch-pounds. After inspecting for
damage, install the gasket (S10-06SS) and the electronic assembly (S10-
11B COMPLETE) using the 8 long screws (DD6P-46A) torqued to 32-36
inch-pounds.

7. Troubleshooting guide
Problem: Meter reads high or low.
Solution: Check for the following:
• Ensure lines are full and there is no trapped air in the system
before calibrating.
• Pump may be sucking air due to low uid level or bad pump
inlet connection.
• Calibrating at one ow rate and operating at a different rate.
Calibrating with a different uid than what is being pumped.
Problem: Meter ashes “ERR” at the end of calibration.
Solution: Check for the following:
• Meter electronics are not sensing the rotation of the magnet.
During calibration, if the CAL-1 or CAL-2 text does not blink
while uid is being pumped, rotation is not being sensed.
Disassemble meter and clean out or replace the meter
chamber (SEM-10 KIT)
• Volume dispensed during calibration is too small or too large.
The meter must be calibrated with 9.5 liters – 265 liters (2.5
gallons – 70 gallons)

SEM-100SS User Instructions
Problem: No liquid will pass through the meter or the meter will
not register ow.
Solution: Foreign material is in the metering cartridge and is obstructing
ow or preventing the nutating disk from moving freely. Remove
the meter cartridge and clean.
Problem: The meter will not power on, or the display is dim.
Solution: Replace the batteries.
