9. Install a ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch anchor bolt, washer, and nut below

the flow surface 1 to 3 inches away from the Doppler velocity

sensor on each side. This will hold the sensor securely against

the pipe wall and prevent the end of the band from twisting in

the flow or catching debris.

10. Conform the portion of the band above the flow surface to the

pipe wall, and install an ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch anchor bolt, nut,

and washer every 12 to 24 inches up to the top of the band.

Completed ½-band mount in pipe

11. 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.

12. 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.

Note:

If the pipe is large and the Doppler velocity sensor

and pressure depth sensor cables cannot reach the pipe

crown, attach the sensor cables to ½-inch PVC tubing and

anchor the tubing to the wall. This will help prevent sensor

damage during heavy flow.
