10 Endress+Hauser
5.1.4 Installing pressure piping
• For recommendations for routing pressure piping, refer to DIN 19210 "Differential pressure
piping for flow measurement devices" or the corresponding national or international
standards
• When routing the pressure piping outdoors, ensure sufficient anti-freeze protection, e.g. by
using pipe heat tracing
• Install the pressure piping with a monotonic gradient of at least 10%
5.2 Mounting the device
5.2.1 Level measurement
Level measurement in an open vessel, diaphragm seal on one side with temperature
isolator
• Mount the device directly on the vessel
• The negative side is open to atmospheric pressure
Level measurement in a closed vessel, diaphragm seal on one side with temperature
isolator
• Mount the device directly on the vessel
• Always connect the piping on the negative side above the maximum level
Level measurement in a closed vessel, diaphragm seal on one side or both sides with
capillary
Mount the device below the lower diaphragm seal
Level measurement is only guaranteed between the upper edge of the lower diaphragm seal
and the lower edge of the upper diaphragm seal.
Level measurement in a closed vessel with superimposed vapor, diaphragm seal on one
side with temperature isolator
• Mount the device directly on the vessel
• Always connect the piping on the negative side above the maximum level
• The condensate trap ensures constant pressure on the negative side
• When measuring in media with solid parts (such as dirty liquids) installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment
5.2.2 Differential pressure measurement
Differential pressure measurement in gases, vapors and liquids, diaphragm seal on one
side or two sides with capillary
• Mount diaphragm seals with capillaries on pipes at the top or side
• In vacuum applications, mount the device below the measuring point
