Introduction 1-5
Only limited field repairs to the FlowShark IS are allowed; all
other repairs must be performed by an ADS authorized
technician. For information on allowable field repairs, refer to
Maintenance Restrictions
on page 1-7.
Installation and IS Considerations
When installing the FlowShark IS flow monitor, carefully follow all
local regulations for the installation of IS equipment. For example,
many cities only allow the use of IS-certified tools (flashlights,
radios, etc.) in manholes. Some cities will not allow the use of an
electric drill, battery- or AC-powered, in a manhole. In this case, air
(pneumatic) tools must be used. When in doubt as to the applicable
regulations, check with the collection system owner or the
corresponding safety representative.
Special Conditions for Safe Use
During the ATEX approval process, certain conditions are set forth
that must be observed when using the approved equipment. These
“Special Conditions for Safe Use” can be found in the body of each
ATEX Certification (included in this manual), as well as on a page
attached to the Declaration of Conformity. Following is a summary
of these Safe Use Instructions:
•
When internal battery power is in use, the ADS Model 5000-
IS1-01 or the ADS Model 5000-IS1-US-01 shall only use one
of the following ADS IS battery packs (p/n 106152 (9-volt) or
8000-0043-01/02 (12-volt)).
•
The ADS Model 5000-IS1 shall only be used in the hazardous
area when fully assembled. Conduct maintenance of internal
parts or battery changes only when the unit is located in a safe
area.
