It is interesting to measure the amount of lift the sludge blanket experiences just
after the skimmer passes under the tank bridge. A steady hand lowering the
sensor probe will allow the operator to track the settling of the blanket after the
skimmer passes under the bridge. With experience, you will come to expect a
certain rate of settling after the skimmer passes. Unexpected settling differences
may indicate a process problem.
Always be aware of the skimmer location prior to lowering the sensor probe into
the tank.
Check for uniformity of blanket height by walking the length of the bridge
while maintaining the sensor probe just above the identified blanket.
