    As a review, the following steps may be used as a guide to install Checklist a 2150 Module at a basic site. In this example, a basic site is a single AV Module and AV Sensor, and a Battery Module. Your steps may differ if you have selected an alternative power source, or if you are installing additional modules.

  • Page 59: Silt Level

    2150 Area Velocity Flow Module Section 3 Programming If the selected flow conversion requires channel dimensions, actual channel measurements should be taken. Channel mea- surements are preferred over nominal values. Significant errors may be introduced if your measurements are inaccurate. The example below illustrates the importance of accurate measure- ments.
