Installing the loggers
Install the loggers of the workgroup in succession along the stretch of pipe. It is best to
fit them directly on the pipe. However, you can also attach the loggers to valve rods or
hydrants, for example, or any other position along the pipeline that is easily accessible.
There must be the best possible contact between the logger foot or the mounted
adapter (see below) and the pipe.
If the logger is attached to a valve rod, for example, make sure the surface is as flat as
possible. Clean the rod thoroughly (preferably with a wire brush).
Due to their powerful magnet, the loggers can also be attached horizontally to
ferromagnetic surfaces. You must however make sure the red mark on the logger is
facing upwards. Otherwise the internal tilt switch will switch the logger off after
3 minutes.
Loggers with the mark facing upwards are
switched on.
Loggers with the mark facing downwards are
switched off.
If the logger cannot be attached anywhere directly, the accessories for the Sebalog N-3
set have various adapters.
If, for example, the surface of the valve rod is not flat, or not magnetic, unscrew the
magnet on the foot of the logger and fit the 20 mm or 42 mm valve rod adapter
(optionally available) instead.
When installing the logger on an underground hydrant, you can fit it on the valve rod or
on the side of the rod, depending on the height of the shaft. Use the magnetic angle
adapter, for example, for side mounting.
For underground hydrants with bayonet fittings, you can use the underground hydrant
adapter. Fit the adapter in the hydrant claw.
For plastic domestic pipes (water meter fittings), use the plastic fitting, if necessary in
combination with the angle adapter.
