Page 23: Enclosure Installation
Locate the enclosure within 20 ft (6 m) of the sensor (up to 500 ft -150 m optional). The enclosure can be wall mounted with the four mounting screws (included) or panel mounted with Option PM Panel Mount kit from Greyline Instruments. Avoid mounting the enclosure in direct sunlight to protect the electronics from damage due to overheating and condensate. - Page 24 Multi-Sensor Area Velocity Flow Meter FUSE REPLACEMENT 1. Turn OFF power. 2. Loosen cover screw and open. 3. Remove power module. 4. Locate fuse on Power Board. 5. Replace fuse with 2 AMP/ 250V, 5 x 20mm fuse. 6. Reinstall power module into chassis.

Page 25: Field Troubleshooting
Multi-Sensor Area Velocity Flow Meter FIELD TROUBLESHOOTING The AVMS 5.1 uses an ultrasonic level sensor to determine channel AREA and an ultrasonic Doppler sensor to measure flow VELOCITY. The QZ02L sensor combines both sensors in one housing. An optional configuration uses the PZ12-LP “down-looking” level sensor and a QZ02L-DP velocity sensor. - Page 26 Multi-Sensor Area Velocity Flow Meter SENSOR CABLE RESISTANCE TEST Unplug the green sensor terminal from the Doppler board and connect the sensor wires as shown. With a multimeter, perform resistance checks for each set of wires. One single loose terminal may cause false readings.
