System Overview and Operation 4-7
Pipe Insertion Sensor
The pipe insertion sensor primarily is used to measure flow velocity in closed pipes
that remain full, eliminating the need for a depth measurement device. When
installed, the sensor mounts perpendicular to the pipe and extends from the outside of
the pipe, through the pipe wall, and slightly into the flow.
The pipe insertion sensor uses the same technology for measuring velocity as the
velocity component of the combi sensor. Therefore, refer to the Flow Velocity
Measurement on page 4-3 for more information on the method employed by this
sensor for velocity measurement.
