4.4 Installing DRS511
Vaisala strongly recommends that only certified technicians install
embedded sensors.
CAUTION!
Install DRS511 on the wheel track 1 … 3 mm (0.04 … 0.12 in) below the road or runway
surface. This installation depth allows enough moisture to accumulate on top of the sensor
to determine salt concentration, but not to collect water excessively.
