Down pipes
Install a siphon or a vent valve downstream of the sensor in down pipes longer than 5 meters (16 ft).
This precaution is to avoid low pressure and the consequent risk of damage to the lining of the
measuring tube. This measure also prevents the system losing prime, which could cause air
inclusions.
