ADFM® Flow Meter
Section 3 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
This section explains the maintenance requirements of the
ADFM Velocity Profiling System.
The ADFM is designed to perform reliably in adverse conditions
with a minimal amount of routine service requirements. To keep
your system working properly, inspect the battery voltage and
the condition of the internal desiccant regularly.
Maintenance intervals are affected by many variables. The Data
Storage Rate will affect the battery life. Humidity levels obvi-
ously affect the service life of the desiccant, and the amount of
debris in the stream can drastically alter the channel conditions.
