2-1 CHAPTER 2 System Overview The ADS® FlowShark® IS flow monitor uses three flow measurement devices to gather raw flow data: a quadredundant, intrinsically-safe (IS) ultrasonic depth sensor; an IS pressure depth sensor; and an IS Doppler peak velocity sensor. The IS ultrasonic and pressure depth sensors apply independent measurement techniques to collect information used in flow depth calculations. The IS Doppler velocity sensor gathers peak flow velocity data.
2-2 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Typical FlowShark IS flow monitoring system installation Communication between the monitor and the user’s office or field computer can occur over TCP/IP (remote, wireless communication), or a direct connection cable (on-site communication). Special software called Profile® enables the user to configure and communicate with the monitor for activation, data collection, and diagnostic purposes.
System Overview 2-3 Profile also enables the user to process the flow data, generate graphical and tabular reports, organize data in the user's local directory, and maintain logs of communication between the monitor and the user's PC. Note: Refer to the Profile User's Guide (#950015**) for more information.
2-4 ADS FlowShark IS Manual ADS FlowShark IS Flow Monitor The FlowShark IS flow monitor is a waterproof, airtight, cylindrical, marine-grade aluminum canister housing a chassis securing multiple printed circuit boards and a portable power source (when applicable).
System Overview 2-5 Communications ADS offers remote wireless communication for the FlowShark IS monitor. The wireless communication is performed over the GSM/GPRS cellular network using TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) through the modem in the EMU. TCP/IP facilitates high-speed, low-cost, efficient communication in areas with GSM/GPRS coverage.
2-6 ADS FlowShark IS Manual The board allocates portions of memory to firmware (embedded code in the monitor that can be updated remotely) and data storage. A seven-segment (SS) light-emitting diode (LED) located on the processor board indicates the current monitor communication and operational activity. The board also includes the monitor clock, random access memory (RAM), and Flash. The monitor uses RAM while taking readings and processing the flow data.
System Overview 2-7 Analog Board The Analog board (ADS p/n 5000-0637) controls the sampling of the FlowShark IS sensors. It receives signals from the DSP board telling it when to initiate sensor readings for the IS ultrasonic, pressure, and velocity sensors. Once the sensor readings are acquired, the analog board sends the readings to the DSP for storage in the FlowShark IS monitor memory.
2-8 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Voltage to Frequency Board The Voltage to Frequency board (ADS p/n 5000-0661) allows the FlowShark IS monitor to safely read the internal battery voltage. The user can access the internal monitor voltage during data collects to determine whether sufficient voltage is available to power the FlowShark IS monitor. If the voltage drops below a threshold of 6.5 volts, the user will receive a warning that the battery pack requires replacement.
System Overview 2-9 Voltage Regulator Board The Voltage Regulator board (ADS p/n 5000-0638) regulates and distributes power to the analog and DSP boards. The regulator board is critical to intrinsically-safe operation. It regulates the voltage supplied from the internal IS battery or external power to the FlowShark IS boards to ensure that the monitor always operates within its IS certification requirements.
2-10 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Connectors Connectors located on top of the monitor receive the following cabling and components: IS ultrasonic depth sensor (ADS p/n 106186A) IS Doppler velocity sensor (ADS p/n 106194A) IS pressure depth sensor (ADS p/n 3754-0001/0002/0003) Communication cable for either on-site (ADS p/n 106228A) or remote (ADS p/n 106227) communications and external power supply Air pressure valve (for testing purposes only) The connectors are keyed to ensure that only th
System Overview 2-11 FlowShark IS 9-volt (left) and 12-volt (right) internal battery packs External Power The monitor (and EMU) also can receive power from an external DC power source. All external power to the monitor comes through the EMU and is delivered to the monitor via the Communication Cable (ADS p/n 106227). The EMU contains protection circuitry that limits the amount of power that can reach the monitor.
2-12 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Sensors The FlowShark IS flow monitor uses various sensors to gather raw flow data. The IS ultrasonic and pressure depth sensors use independent measurement techniques to collect information concerning the depth of the flow. The Doppler velocity sensor gathers peak flow velocity data. A sewer system's hydraulics are much more stable and uniform in the incoming pipe than in the manhole invert or outgoing pipe.
System Overview 2-13 Ultrasonic depth sensor sending signals to flow surface to determine range Quadredundancy Each ultrasonic depth sensor contains four ultrasonic transducers for taking readings to give the sensor quadredundancy, which ensures greater sensor reading reliability. To take a reading, one transducer transmits a sound wave while a second transducer listens for the returning echo. Each transducer has its own electronic circuitry and dedicated wiring for true redundancy.
2-14 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Data Scrubbing Flow conditions and internal structures introduce many potential obstacles to obtaining accurate flow data in sewer systems and manholes. Some of these obstacles may include noise, turbulent or wavy flow, a foamy flow surface, side connections, rungs, broken pipes, or drop connections. To minimize these effects, ADS uses a process of eliminating erroneous data called data scrubbing.
System Overview 2-15 compensates for temperature using a temperature sensor housed within the pressure depth sensor. IS Doppler Velocity Sensor The IS Doppler velocity sensor (ADS p/n 106194A-35) mounts at the bottom of the pipe. It emits a wide, omnidirectional sound wave at a specific frequency upward into the flow. The sound wave bounces off particles in the flow and returns to the sensor. The velocity sensor measures the change in the sound wave's frequency from transmission to reception.
3-1 CHAPTER 3 Sensor Installation and Connection The ADS® FlowShark® IS flow monitor and sensors are primarily designed for monitoring flow in sanitary, storm, and combined sewers. The monitor mounts to the manhole rim or wall slightly below the manhole cover. A sewer system’s hydraulics are much more stable and uniform in the incoming pipe than in the manhole invert or outgoing pipe.
3-2 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Secure and Connect the Cables This procedure involves securing the sensor cables from the ring or band to the monitor location in the manhole and connecting the sensors to the FlowShark IS monitor. Typical FlowShark IS flow monitor and sensor installation This chapter contains detailed instructions for properly installing the sensors in sanitary, storm, and combined sewer lines and manholes.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-3 Investigating Site Characteristics Before beginning installation activities, conduct a thorough investigation of hydraulic and site conditions. Flow Hydraulics The hydraulics of a site directly affect the monitor's ability to accurately measure flow depth and velocity.
3-4 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Higher Elevation than High Water Level that Occurs in Wet Well at Downstream Pump Station Pipes that are below the high water level of the pump station wet well could experience frequent backup and surcharging, increasing sensor maintenance and possibly reducing data accuracy. Pipe and Manhole Characteristics The physical characteristics of the pipe affect the flow and determine the procedure for installing the sensors.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-5 Manhole Depth Measure the distance from the top of the manhole to the bottom of the manhole invert. For distances beyond 30 feet, the sensors will require extension cables.

Slide the ultrasonic plate along the metal band until it is level (from side to side) with the flow surface and pipe crown, and tighten the nuts securely with a nut driver. Refer to the illustration Leveling the ultrasonic depth sensor on page 3-24. 11.
3-32 ADS FlowShark IS Manual 13. Measure the physical offset for the ultrasonic depth sensor (the distance from the crown (top) of the pipe to the face of the sensor). Note: This value will be necessary when configuring the monitor using the Profile software. Surcharge Mount For a site that may experience surcharge conditions, mount the ultrasonic depth sensor on the manhole wall using a special surcharge bracket (ADS p/n I40-0010) directly above the opening of the incoming pipe.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-33 Surcharge mount 2. Press the bracket firmly against the manhole wall. 3. Identify the three pre-drilled holes at the top of the bracket, and spot drill the manhole wall through the middle hole with a drill. 4. Remove the bracket, and drill and mount a ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch (M6 x 55-mm) anchor bolt. 5. Secure the top of the bracket to the manhole wall with a washer and nut. 6.
3-34 ADS FlowShark IS Manual 10. Secure the bottom of the bracket with a washer and nut. 11. Slide the sensor into the bracket, and secure the sensor with cable ties to keep the sensor in place. 12. Verify that the sensor portion of the bracket is level using the 24-inch carpenter’s level held to the face of the sensor. If it is slightly out of level, make horizontal adjustments to the bottom portion of the bracket by moving it to the left or right.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-35 Therefore, the ¾-band mount is the preferable method for mounting the sensors. However, a ½-band mount may be appropriate for monitoring under the following circumstances: Large pipes with deep minimum flows Large pipes with excessive silt present ½- (left) and ¾-band (right) mounts ¾-Band Mount Perform the following procedure to mount the Doppler velocity sensor and pressure depth sensor (when applicable) in a pipe using the ¾-band mount: 1.
3-36 ADS FlowShark IS Manual 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.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-37 7. Place the band in the pipe upstream at least 12 inches (same distance as ultrasonic depth sensor, when present) from the manhole invert. Position the band in the pipe so that the sensors will remain below the flow surface (even during minimum flows) and above the silt level. 8. Make sure two pre-drilled holes are visible above the flow surface on the short end of the band. Maneuver the band so that the lowest hole is almost at the flow surface. 9.
3-38 ADS FlowShark IS Manual Sensors mounted using a ¾-band mount in the pipe with and without silt 15. Measure the physical offset for the pressure depth sensor (the vertical distance from the bottom of the pressure depth sensor to the bottom, center of the pipe). Note: This value will be necessary when configuring the monitor using the Profile software. 16.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-39 3. Mount the sensor onto the inside of the band with two 4-40 x 5/16-inch countersink screws, making sure the beveled end of the sensor faces the upstream edge of the ring. If holes do not exist on the band at or near the desired mounting location for the sensor, drill holes in the band using a 7/32-inch drill bit. Note: The edge of the band with the cable tie holes is the downstream edge. 4.
3-40 ADS FlowShark IS Manual 9. Install a ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch anchor bolt, washer, and nut below the flow surface 1 to 3 inches away from the Doppler velocity sensor on each side. This will hold the sensor securely against the pipe wall and prevent the end of the band from twisting in the flow or catching debris. 10. Conform the portion of the band above the flow surface to the pipe wall, and install an ¼-inch x 2 ¼-inch anchor bolt, nut, and washer every 12 to 24 inches up to the top of the band.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-41 Securing the Cables to the Band Securing the Doppler velocity sensor and pressure depth sensor cables to the band helps prevent debris from collecting between the cable and the band or catching on the loose cable. It also prevents the loose cables from disrupting the flow. Secure the Doppler velocity and pressure depth sensor cables in the following way: 1. Starting at the appropriate sensor location, begin securing the sensor cable with 4-inch x 0.
3-42 ADS FlowShark IS Manual 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.
Sensor Installation and Connection 3-43 Securing the Sensor Cables in the Pipe and Manhole Securing the sensor cables from the ring (or band, when applicable), along the pipe crown, and up the manhole helps prevent debris from collecting on sagging cables or between the cables and the pipe crown. Do not allow sensor cables to hang down in the pipe or sag in the manhole. Loose cables could present a safety hazard in the manhole or increase the potential for sensor or monitor damage to occur.
3-44 ADS FlowShark IS Manual 2. Secure the cables with a cable tie and plastic anchor every 18 to 24 inches along the pipe crown (when necessary) from the ring to the manhole.
