5-30 ADS TRITON+ Manual
(Left) Proper orientation of the ring with the sensors in the pipe without silt
present. (Right) Proper orientation of the ring with silt present (not applicable
to AV|Gated). Note that the sensor mounting plate for the ParaDepth,
ParaFlow and Surface Combo Sensor/Ultrasonic Depth Sensor is centered
at the crown of the pipe and the crank spreader mechanism is offset to the
side.
The bottom sensors (AV|Max and Peak Combo) may be
rotated off the bottom centerline up to 30 degrees up the
left side of the pipe with the Silt Mount Adapter. For best
performance, ADS recommends sensor rotation of less
than 5 degrees when no adapter is used. After activating
the monitor, perform a Diagnostic reading on the AV|Max
Ultrasonic sensor and verify the Sensor Slope and Sensor
Rotation values are not greater than 5.0. See Chapter 4,
Running Sensor Diagnostics for more information.
Rotating the sensor requires accurately measuring the
physical offset.
Note: The Peak Combo sensor does not contain an
Accelerometer to measure sensor slope and rotation. Its
rotations will have to be estimated.
