Maximum permissible height differences in mounting
■
For pressure measuring instruments above the measuring point (see example 1 and 2),
the following applies:
H ≤ 7 m for system fill fluid: Silicone, glycerine or paraffin oil
1
H ≤ 4 m for system fill fluid: Halocarbon oil

For measurements of negative overpressure, the permissible height difference must be
reduced accordingly.
Example 1
With absolute pressure measurements (vacuum), the measuring instrument must at least
be mounted at the same height as the diaphragm seal or beneath it (see example 3 and 4).
