Parameter Measured Clause Samples

Parameter Measured. Velocity‌ Simple diagnostic procedures are provided to verify system operation. Beam Check requires an external computer. The Auto QC Test procedure requires only a few minutes and can be performed in the field from the keypad interface. These should be performed before each data run. Beam Check is a diagnostic program that is used to verify FlowTracker performance. This is the same diagnostic program used at SonTek; it provides you with a powerful tool for understanding and verifying system performance. We recommend you become familiar with this software and use it on a regular basis. To run Beam Check: 1. Hold the FlowTracker in a bucket of water (or a natural environment) such that the probe is submerged and there is a boundary (surface, side, or bottom) within view. a. Ideally, the boundary should be placed 20-30 cm (8-12 in) from the probe. b. You may need to add a small amount of fine dirt or other seeding material and stir the bucket well for good test conditions. Regular tap water usually does not have enough scatterers (seeding) for a valid test. 2. Connect the FlowTracker to the PC and turn the system on. a. Run the FlowTracker software (click Start | Programs | SonTek Software | FlowTracker).
