4-1

The 948A-40 Remote Alarm and 948A-50 Remote Alarm/Meter require no routine maintenance other than periodic 
calibration for the 948A-50. Refer to calibration for further information. 

 

The 948A-50 requires calibration before it is initially placed into service. In addition, it should be recalibrated at regular 
intervals during routine service. The length of time between calibration intervals should be determined by the 
customer. Use the following procedure to perform the calibration: 

1.  Using radios, field telephones, or other suitable communication devices, establish communications between a 

technician at the ratemeter location and another at the remote alarm/meter location. 

2.  To gain access to the meter adjustment potentiometer, open the front panel of the remote alarm/meter. The 

potentiometer is mounted on the rear of the panel meter. 

3.  Adjust the potentiometer until the reading shown on the panel meter agrees with the reading shown on the 

ratemeter within 

±5%. 

4.  This concludes the calibration procedure for the 948A-50 Remote Alarm/Meter.
