1) Density of the diaphragm seal fill fluid at 20 °C (68 °F).
The calculation of the operating temperature range of a diaphragm seal system depends
on the fill fluid, capillary length and capillary internal diameter, process temperature and
oil volume of the diaphragm seal. Detailed calculations, e.g. for temperature ranges,
negative pressure and temperature ranges, are done separately in the Applicator
"Sizing Diaphragm Seal".
