3-26 ADS FlowShark IS Manual

Performing a special installation involves the following process:

 Gathering the parts and supplies

 Gathering the tools and equipment

 Mounting the ultrasonic depth sensor

 Mounting the Doppler velocity sensor

 Mounting the pressure depth sensor

 Securing the cables to the band

Before beginning the installation, conduct a thorough investigation

of hydraulic and other site conditions. The hydraulics of a site

directly affect the monitor's ability to accurately measure flow depth

and velocity. In addition, measure the horizontal and vertical pipe

dimensions carefully. Even slightly inaccurate pipe dimensions can

significantly skew and misrepresent flow data.

Caution: Handle all sensors and cables with extreme

care. The sensors and cables contain delicate mechanisms

and electronics. Keep sharp objects away from sensor

cables, and avoid stepping or placing heavy objects on the

cable during installation.

Gathering Parts and Supplies

Be sure to obtain the following supplies before performing a special

installation to prevent any costly delays. When ordering, specify the
