Pipe
Up to 6" Metal
8" +Metal
Up to 6" AC
8"+ AC
Up to 4"MDPE?PVC
4" + MDPE/PVC
300+Steel
NOTE : On sites with mixed pipe material always select the longest sample period. So if
you have some 6" and some 8" Metal (less than 500 metre lengths) select 20 seconds.
The recording interval needs to be set with local knowledge in mind. Think of how long it
takes for a toilet to fill in your local area, and set the recording interval to that time. This
will help reduce the detection of noise which is due to legitimate consumption.
This is also partly the reason why we suggest 3 recordings. If a logger detects a noise
which can be put down to legitimate usage then hopefully on the second or third recording
the usage will have stopped.
