Warning: Do not over-tighten the cable ties or kink the
sensor cables!
The depth cable sheathes two components:
the electrical cables that operate the sensor and an air tube
that ventilates the sensor (when applicable). Over-
tightening the ties or kinking the cable can damage or
restrict the air tube, causing incorrect pressure depth
readings. In addition, make sure the connector-end of the
sensor is not kinked, does not contain moisture, and
includes an attached dryer tube filled with active blue
desiccant.

4. Use the diagonal cutters to cut off the excess portion of the

cable ties.

Mounting the Surface Combo Sensor or Ultrasonic
Depth Sensor

Two special installation methods are available for mounting the
Ultrasonic Depth Sensor and one for the Surface Combo Sensor:

Standard Mount This mount, the most common mounting
method in use today, is used for mounting the Surface Combo
Sensor or the Ultrasonic Depth Sensor in the pipe during
special installations.

Surcharge Mount This mount primarily is used for
mounting the Ultrasonic Depth Sensor in the manhole at sites
where the flow continually occurs within 2 inches (51 mm) of
the top of the pipe, pipe conditions and/or hydraulics prohibit
the installation of a sensor in the pipe, or surcharges frequently
occur. Surcharges are conditions where the flow completely
fills the pipe and extends up into the manhole.
