Sensors
The TRITON+ monitor supports several approved IS sensors that
vary in measurement method ology, redundancy, and other features.
The monitor is approved for accommodating up to two of the same
or different types of IS sensors. Following are the approved IS
sensors:
 Peak Combo Sensor Performs upward ultrasonic depth,
pressure depth, and peak velocity measurement and mounts a t
or near the bottom of the pipe under the flow surface (ADS p/n
8K-CS4-05-35, 8K-CS4-15-35, or 8K-CS4-30-1H).
 Surface Combo Sensor Performs downward ultrasonic
depth, surcharge pressure dep th, surcharge peak velocity, and
surface velocity measurement a nd mounts at the top (or crown)
of the pipe above the flow (ADS p/n 8K-CS5-V2-05-30, 8K-
CS5-V2-15-30, or 8K-CS5-V2-30-1H).
 Ultrasonic Depth Sensor Performs downward ultrasonic
depth measurement alone and mounts at the top ( o r cr o wn) of
the pipe above the flow (ADS p/n 8K-CS5-D1-00-30).
Extension cables are available fo r these sensors in lengths up to a
maximum of 300 feet (91 m). .
Note: Detailed descriptions and specifications for the
sensors are availab le in Chapter 2, System Overview, and
Appendix A, Specifications
Power
The TRITON+ flow monitor is powered by an internal 12-volt IS
battery pack (ADS p/n 8000-0043) or an external DC power source
thro ugh an exter nal power and co mmunications unit ( ExPAC, AD S
p/n 8000-0377), external Modbus interface unit (XBUS
™
, AD S p/n
9000-0427), or an e xternal input/o utput device (XIO
™
, ADS p/n
8000-0400).
Note: Using a battery pack that is not supplied by ADS
will void the warranty and IS certification of the monitor.
