Assembling Probes
1. Place probes into ground
2. Connect probes to VEU with hose assemblies.
Note : The MBW VEU probes can be connected to the
VEU in many ways. Each utility should develop
their own best practice to make the connections.
To avoid a significant pressure drop, MBW
recommends not connecting more then 6 (six)
probes to a single 1-1/2” branch hose. If more
probes are desired, they should be connected to a
new branch line coming off the VEU.
3. Open all valves on VEU probes.
4. Cap all open hose ends with CAM-Loc plugs/caps.
5. Close unused manifold valves on VEU.
6. Fully open Air-Bypass valve before starting engine.

sampling line is not connected.
7. Plug sensor/vacuum combo plug into socket on
canister housing.
