Application Data*

Liquid Level: Closed Tank

Determine the minimum and

maximum pressure differentials to

be measured (Figure 18).

PMin = (SGp x a) – (SGf x d)

= LRV when HP at bottom

of tank

= –URV when LP at

bottom of tank

PMax = (SGp x b) – (SGf x d)

= URV when HP at bottom

of tank

= –LRV when LP at bottom

of tank


Where:

Minimum level at 4 mA

Maximum level at 20 mA

a = distance between bottom

tap and minimum level

b = distance between bottom

tap and maximum level


d = distance between taps

SGf = Specific Gravity of capillary

fill fluid (see page 11 for

values)

SGp = Specific Gravity of

process fluid
