¾-Band Mount
Perform the following procedure to mount the pressure depth sensor
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 length around the inside of the pipe.
Note: The metal bands come in 8-foot lengths. Some
larger pipes may require attaching two bands together. In
addition, for square-shaped pipes, use an 8-foot straight
metal strip.
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, ADS recommends reserving the left
side of the pipe (upstream from the manhole) for the long end
of the band.
Note: Position the edge of the band with the cable tie
holes (edge with small holes) facing downstream.
3. Determine the appropriate location on the band to mount the
pressure depth sensor, making sure the sensor will be both
