OPERATION IN EACH SITE SITUATION
6-2 Depth and current of close parallel pipes
When you measure a depth, the depth value and the current index value of the measurement
pipe line are displayed on the LCD screen simultaneously.
The response of a current is an important tool for differentiating pipelines that are in close
proximity to each other. The placement of the Transmitter and the depth of each pipeline will
determine the current response of each pipeline being located.
As the operator tracks the pipeline away from the transmitter, the current response decreases.
It is common for each pipeline to have a different current response in relation to each other.
Observing the current response allows the operator to differentiate pipelines for one another.
