Sensors mounted using a ¾-band mount in the pipe with and without silt

15. Measure the physical offset for the pressure depth sensor (the

vertical distance from the bottom of the pressure depth sensor
to the bottom, center of the pipe).

Note: This value will be necessary when configuring the
monitor using the Profile software.

16. Run the sensor cables from the sensor location in the pipe to

the monitor location in the manhole according to the
instructions in Securing the Sensor Cables in the Pipe and
Manhole
on page 3-43.

½-Band Mount

Perform the following procedure to mount the Doppler velocity
sensor and pressure depth sensor (when applicable) in a pipe using
the ½-band mount:

1. Use a hacksaw to cut the band to the appropriate length. Cut the

band so that, when installed, it will run almost completely down
the left side of the pipe.

2. Determine the best location on the band to mount the Doppler

velocity sensor. The sensor should mount as close as possible
to the bottom of the band, making sure the sensor will be both
above the silt level and below the flow surface once installed.

3. Mount the sensor onto the inside of the band with two 4-40 x

5/16-inch

countersink screws, making sure the beveled end of
