NOTES:
1. Shield from direct sunlight (Temp. probe in sensor).
2. Use the "Isolation Coupling" supplied for mounting.
Do not clamp sensor body or stem.
3. Run sensor cable in grounded metal conduit with no other
conductors.
4. Extend sensor cable with RG62AU coaxial only. Splice with
terminal strip connections in recommended Junction Box.
5. Refer to the instruction manual for complete installation and
wiring information.
SENSOR POSITION
PARSHALL FLUME:
Position the sensor at 2/3 Approach as illustrated.
Sensor height must be 8" (203.2 mm) or more above the
highest water level.
PALMER BOWLUS & LEOPOLD LAGCO FLUMES:
