System Overview
The ADS ® TRITON+ ™ flow monitor supports three flow
measurement devices for gathering flow data:
 Peak Combo Sensor This sensor, which mounts at or near
the bottom of the pipe, contains an upward-looking ultrasonic
depth sensor, Doppler peak velocity sensor, and pressure depth
sensor.
 Surface Combo Sensor This sensor, which mounts at the
top of the pipe, contains an ultrasonic depth sensor, a surface
velocity sensor, a surcharge peak velocity sensor, and surcharge
pressure depth sensor.
 Ultrasonic Depth Sensor This sensor, which mounts at the
top of the pipe, is a standalone ultrasonic depth sensor.
The monitor receives the raw flow depth and velocity data from the
sensors based on a defined time interval and then processes the
data, which may involve calculating the flow rate. The monitor
memory can store up to 150 days of data based on logging 6 entities
at a 15-minute sample rate. The storage capacity varies according
to the number of sensors attached to the monitor, the number of
entities stored, the rate at which the entity data is logged, and the
functions activated for the sensors. This data is available to the user
for collection, further processing, analysis, and reporting. These
reports include critical information that can assist municipalities and
other industries in planning improvements and additions to sewer
systems, improving the accuracy of billing information, and
providing overall management of sewer systems.
