Notes:
1. Transmitter may be mounted at or below the
minimum level to be measured.
2. Open or vented vessels require only a high pressure
(HP) connection.
3. High pressure line senses static pressure plus level.
Low pressure line senses pressure only. The two
pressures oppose each other, canceling the effect
of static pressure.
4. Distance "X" can be any distance since both high
and low pressure lines have equal and opposite
forces which cancel the forces created by this
distance.
5. Entire length of low pressure pipe is kept full of
condensate to act as a reference.
6. See Appendix C for information on calculating
suppressed and elevated zero ranges.
