10. Secure the bottom of the bracket with a washer and nut.
11. Slide the sensor into the bracket, and secure the sensor with

cable ties to keep the sensor in place.

12. Verify that the sensor portion of the bracket is level using the

24-inch carpenter’s level held to the face of the sensor. If it is

slightly out of level, make horizontal adjustments to the bottom

portion of the bracket by moving it to the left or right. The oval

bottom mounting holes allow minor horizontal adjustments.

13. Drill and mount a ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch anchor bolt in one of the

other pre-drilled holes at the top portion of the bracket for

added security.

14. Confirm that the sensor is level.
15. Measure the physical offset for the ultrasonic depth sensor (the

distance from the crown (top) of the pipe to the face of the

sensor). Enter this distance as negative value when editing the

parameters for the Ultrasonic Device in Profile. For example,

if it is 24 inches (610 mm) from the top of the pipe to the face

of the sensor in the manhole, the physical offset would be -24

inches.

Note:

This value will be necessary when configuring the

monitor using the Profile software.

Mounting the Doppler Velocity and Pressure Depth
Sensors

Two special installation methods are available for mounting the

Doppler velocity and pressure depth sensors:

¾-band mount

½-band mount

Both mounts require almost identical installation methods. The only

significant differences are that the ¾-band mount allows the

installer to secure the band to both sides of the pipe wall and to

position the Doppler velocity sensor at the bottom center of the

pipe. These options are not possible using the ½-band mount.
