Proper positioning of sensors on the ring

Caution: Handle all sensors and cables with extreme
care. The sensors and cables contain delicate mechanisms
and electronics. Keep sharp objects away from sensor
cables, and avoid stepping or placing heavy objects on the
cable during installation.

Mounting the Ultrasonic Depth Sensor

Mount the ultrasonic depth sensor to the ring in the following way:

Note: Handle the ultrasonic depth sensor with care, and
do not expose it to extreme temperatures for an extended
period of time. Keep the sensor in its protective packaging
until it is time for installation.

1. Slide the sensor into the grooves on the sensor mount (at the

top of the ring) from the upstream end of the mount until the
sensor contacts the backstop. The sensor cable should exit the
downstream edge of the ring. Orient the sensor with the four
transducers facing downward toward the inside of the ring
(flow surface).
