ADS Environmental Services Portable FlowShark Pulse QR 775006 A2 - Manual (Page 13)

Introduction 1-7
Use in Accordance with the Requirements
The Portable FlowShark Pulse and corresponding sensors are designed for temporary
use in measuring slightly- to heavily-polluted flow in partially-filled and full pipes or
other similar applications. The portable unit also detects and records external data
and supports external peripheral equipment.
While the Portable FlowShark Pulse is primarily designed to receive power from a
rechargeable battery pack, it also can receive power from an independent power
source through the combination power pack/battery charger. The unit stores flow
measurement and other data on a removable memory card.
Please adhere to the measurement specifications designated in this manual.
Monitoring flow under conditions falling outside the documented specifications of the
equipments’ capabilities without prior written permission of ADS occurs at the user’s
risk.
Modifying or using this equipment for purposes other than the
intended use (described above) without the prior written consent of
the manufacturer will be considered outside the specifications of
the equipment. Therefore, any resulting damages that may occur
will be at the user’s risk or expense.
Sensors
Water-Ultrasonic Velocity/Combination Sensor
This sensor is designed to measure flow velocity in slightly- to heavily- polluted
media in partially-filled and full sewers, pipes, and other channels. Some versions of
this sensor can also perform level (i.e., depth) measurement.
Air-Ultrasonic Depth Sensor
This sensor is designed for measuring flow depth from the top of the pipe using
ultrasonic technology.
Mini Water-Ultrasonic Velocity Sensor
This sensor is designed for measuring flow velocity in slightly- to heavily-polluted
media in partially-filled or full pipes and channels exhibiting low depth levels. It
connects to the Portable FlowShark Pulse through the Electronic Box (EBM).
However, it requires an additional level (i.e., depth) measurement.
