Connecting the Sensors and Sampler
to the Monitor
After installing the ring and sensors and securing the sensor cables
to the pipe and manhole wall, connect the sensor cables to the
appropriate ports on the top of the monitor. The ports that receive
the sensors are labeled Channel 1 and Channel 2.
The TRITON+ supports the connection of two sensors in any
combination, including two of the same sensor type, to the channel
ports. However, to simplify the installation and configuration
process, ADS recommends developing a system or convention to
ensure consistency when attaching the sensors to the channel ports
and assigning the corresponding channels to the sensor devices in
Qstart.
Establish a priority or order in which particular sensors are assigned
to a specific channel and, when applicable and possible, correspond
the channel number to the monitoring point. For example, consider
always assigning the Peak Combo Sensor to Channel 1 and the
second sensor to Channel 2.
The TRITON+ also enables you to connect a water quality sampler
to the monitor for flow proportional or level-based sampling
operations. ADS offers two 25-foot (7.6-m) cable options for
connecting the sampler to the monitor based on the type of
sampling.
Flow Proportional (ADS p/n 8000-0348-01)
Level Actuation (ADS p/n 8000-0348-02)
Connect the sensor and sampler (when applicable) cables to the
monitor ports in the following way:
1. Place the monitor in an upright position to view the monitor
connector ports.
