What are the specific technical specifications for installation height and angle requirements of Doppler radar flowmeters?

Doppler radar flowmeter installation height and angle settings directly impact measurement accuracy and equipment stability. The HZ-KSLF radar flowmeter installation must strictly follow technical specifications to ensure optimal measurement performance.

• Installation height requirements: 1-30 meters from water surface, recommended installation height 3-8 meters, avoiding submersion during floods or signal strength reduction from excessive height
• Installation angle specifications: Vertical downward installation with allowable deviation angle not exceeding 5°, ensuring proper microwave beam coverage of measurement area
• Lateral position selection: Install above centerline of river or open channel, avoiding interference from bridge piers, gates, or other obstacles
• Bracket stability: Use dedicated mounting brackets with wind resistance rating ≥Grade 8 for long-term stable operation
• Cable routing: Signal cable length not exceeding 100 meters, using shielded cables to prevent electromagnetic interference
• Lightning protection: Configure dedicated lightning arresters with grounding resistance ≤10Ω

Proper installation not only ensures measurement accuracy but also extends equipment service life. Professional technical personnel are recommended for site surveys and installation commissioning to guarantee stable and reliable system operation.
