Installation
The installation of the Hydro Logger H1 and the entire telemetry system can be
divided into:
•
Mechanical placement of the instrument including sensor and
transducer connections
•
To insert an unblocked SIM card
•
Finding the optimal GSM antenna location
•
Setting instrument parameters
The detailed description and setting of individual parameters is covered in Cha-
pter 5.
4.1.
Mechanical placement of the device
If possible, then install the Hydro Logger in a location free of persistent conden-
sing moisture. If this cannot be avoided, then use one of the protective enclo-
sures described below for installation, or take extra care to tighten the cable
glands with the cables passing through and to tighten the two parts of the metal
enclosure that make up the housing of the H1. Before closing the enclosure,
check that the silicone sealant profile of the lid is not dirty and, if necessary,
lubricate it with silicone petroleum jelly to improve the sealing properties.
The Hydro Logger H1 should not be installed in areas where the temperature
consistently exceeds 30
°C
, as this increases the self-discharge of the power ba-
ttery and shortens its life. On the other hand, low temperatures below -10
°C
reduce the capacity of the battery and this again results in a shorter overall ope-
rating time. The optimum location for the communicator in terms of battery life
is ventilated underground spaces and similar cooler locations.
The device should also not be installed in areas of direct sunlight, which can
adversely affect the life of the device's front plastic label and also reduce the
readability of the LCD display. Radiation can cause the front panel to become
brittle over time, so when installing the instrument outdoors, it is advisable to
cover it with a suitably sized shade cover or use one of the available cover enc-
losures.
