6-22 ADS Portable FlowShark Pulse Manual
Configuring individual pipe sections is necessary only for special
or very unusual profiles with convex tops and requires
comprehensive knowledge and experience in operating the Portable
FlowShark Pulse. To ensure proper configuration and/or to obtain
assistance in setting up these parameters, please contact ADS.
Sludge Level
This parameter represents the depth of the sludge that has accumulated at the bottom
of a pipe. This factor must be subtracted from the total wetted hydraulic area before
the Portable FlowShark Pulse performs flow calculations.
Application
This parameter enables you to designate the degree of debris in the flow to ensure the
most accurate ultrasonic measurement. Choose the appropriate option using the ALT
key:
• Wastewater Represents polluted media (e.g., untreated wastewater)
• Sludge Represents media with a high rate of pollution (e.g., sewage sludge), that
is apparently clean, or that is only slightly polluted with a high gas rate (e.g.,
ventilated wastewater)
• Normal Water Represents pure, clean media as well as media with a lower gas
or particle rate (e.g., rain water, fresh water, tap water, or treated wastewater)
