Sensor Installation and Connection 3-39

¾-Band Mount

Perform the following procedure to mount the Peak Combo Sensor
or Slimline Peak Combo Sensor (when applicable) in a pipe using
the ¾ band mount:

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

the band so that, when installed, it will run approximately ¾ of
the circumference of the pipe.

2. Determine which end of the band will be the long end (end

extending almost completely up one side of the pipe). For
cable routing purposes, IETG recommends reserving the left
side of the incoming pipe (upstream from the manhole) for the
long end of the band.

3. Locate the sensor at a position on the band based on the

existence of silt at the bottom of the pipe:

If silt is not present, locate the sensor on the band so it will

be at the bottom center of the pipe once installed.

If silt is present, locate the sensor slightly up the long end

of the band so that it will be above the silt level once
installed. However, make sure it will not be more than 15

°

from the bottom center of the pipe.
