5.2 Avoiding siphoning
If there is a height difference
ΔH
between the suction side and
pressure side container side / system, the low lying line can
develop a suction effect and trigger the siphoning effect
between the communicating containers / systems. This
siphoning effect also occurs when fluid is pumped in a pre-
pressurized reservoir.

Environmentally tip
Siphoning effect
Reservoir overflowing/leaking = oil spill
u
Remove the ends of the hoses from the reservoir after
operation or shut the shut-off device in the suction line.
After the filter unit is switched off, the height difference or
primary pressure can cause the flow to occur both in and
against the feed direction and the fluid can leak uncontrol-
lably.
