Inspecting the Monitor

Perform the following inspections during site visits or from a
remote location (when applicable):

Inspect the monitor mounting bracket to verify that the bracket
and bolts are free of heavy corrosion and the bolts are tightened
and secure.

Verify that the four bolts holding the monitor together are snug,
and tighten any loose bolts.

Verify that the monitor is mounted securely in the manhole.

Inspect the monitor for general integrity. Verify that nothing
more than surface corrosion is present and that the monitor has
no obvious mechanical defects. Replace the monitor if
necessary.

Perform monitor data confirmations. These can occur from a
remote location when wireless communication is available.

Review the applicable logs in Profile

®

or Qstart

to verify the

status of the monitor clock, communications, firmware, battery
pack, and temperatures.

Clean the monitor and sensors regularly with a soft bristle
brush and paper towels. However, do not use detergent!

Make sure all connector ports on the monitor top are dry. Use
compressed air or paper towels to dry out wet or damp
connectors. Note and replace missing interfacial seals in the
sensor connector ends. As a temporary measure, the
connectors can be protected against moisture by wrapping with
self-vulcanizing rubber stretch tape.
