System pressure
It is important to ensure that cavitation does not occur as it could influence the oscillation of the measuring
tube. No special measures need to be taken for fluids which have properties similar to water under normal
conditions.
In the case of liquids with a low boiling point (hydrocarbons, solvents, liquefied gases) or in suction lines, it is
important to ensure that pressure does not drop below the vapor pressure and that the liquid does not start to
boil. It is also important to ensure that the gases that occur naturally in many liquids do not outgas. Such effects
can be prevented when system pressure is sufficiently high.
Consequently, it is generally best to install the sensor:
• On the pump pressure side (no risk of vacuum)
• At the lowest point in a riser
