Step 1You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Measure the vertical riser on the pivot. Ensure there is sufficient straight pipe to meet the
requirements of the meter (see note).
Important Note!
AG2000-400 22" min. AG2000-800 30" min.
AG2000-600 38" min.
AG2000-1000 48" min.
Tape Measure
Step 2You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Cut out a section of straight pipe, insuring there are at least two pipe diameters of straight pipe on the inlet side of the meter, and one pipe diameter of straight pipe on the outlet side of the meter.

Step 2You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Cut out a section of straight pipe, ensuring there are at least two pipe diameters of straight pipe upstream of the meter, and one pipe diameter of straight pipe downstream of the meter.

Step 3You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Weld the appropriate ANSI flanges on each open end of pipe, ensuring the flanges are parallel, and the flange bolt holes are aligned.
Allow the welds to cool to ambient temperature.

Important Note!
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE METER AS
A WELDING FORM.
THE HEAT AND/OR ELECTRICAL CURRENTS FROM THE WELDER
WILL DAMAGE THE METER AND VOID THE WARRANTY.

Step 4You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Install the equalization wires and tabs from the lug to the top and bottom pipe flanges for proper electrical grounding.

Step 5You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Use a cable tie to secure the Power/Output cable to the pivot, ensuring there is a small loop at the meter strain relief. This will help prevent water running down the cable, and into the meter.

Step 6You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Install the Weather Guard protective cap over the meter head. This is a force-fit, so measurable pressure will be required for a correct fit.
Hands
Step 7You’ll Need:
Installing an AG2000
On a Center Pivot
Route the Power/Output cable to the appropriate pivot manufacturers panel.
Consult the Seametrics Instructions "Connections, AG2000" for specific electrical connections.
