Sensor Installation and Connection

3-47

5. Secure the sensor cables along the downstream edge of the long

end of the band according to the instructions in Securing the
Cables to the Band
on page 3-51.

6. Make sure two pre-drilled holes are visible above the flow

surface on the short end of the band. Maneuver the band so
that the lowest hole is almost at the flow surface.

7. Mark the pipe wall through the lowest hole with a drill, and

install a ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch (M6 x 55-mm) anchor bolt with a
pneumatic drill.

8. Secure the band to the anchor bolt with a washer and nut.

9. Conform the band to the pipe wall around to the long end of the

band so that it is flush with the pipe wall.

10. Install a ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch (M6 x 55-mm) anchor bolt through

the pre-drilled hole closest to the flow surface on the long end
of the band, and secure the band with a washer and nut.

11. Make sure the band and sensors are flush against the pipe wall

with no gaps, and conform the rest of the band to the pipe wall.

12. Install ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch (M6 x 55-mm) anchor bolts, nuts and

washers at the pre-drilled hole at the short end of the band and
at the pre-drilled holes along the long end of the band (above
the flow surface) approximately every 12 to 24 inches (305 to
610 mm) to the top end of the band.

13. Measure the physical offset for the sensor by manually

measuring the depth of the flow from the bottom of the pipe to
the flow surface and then measuring the distance from the nose
(i.e., front end at the pipe surface) of the sensor to the flow
surface. Subtract the second measurement from the initial
depth of flow to determine the physical offset.

14. Run the sensor cables from the sensor location in the pipe to

the monitor location in the manhole according to the
instructions in Securing the Sensor Cables in the Pipe and
Manhole
on page 3-64.
