Interface Measurement
Technology: Pressure
INTRODUCTION
Differential pressure (DP) transmitters are used to
measure the interface of two fluids that have
different specific gravities (S). To make an interface
h = 150"
measurement, the overall level must be at or above L2 S2 =1.0
the low pressure tap at all times. It is important L=150" S f = 0.934
that the level be large enough to create a reasonable
DP between the two specific gravity extremes. This L1
S1 =1.08
measurement can be done with or without remote
seals. However, from a maintenance standpoint, it d=50"
may be easier to use a remote seal assembly;
keeping the wet leg at a constant height can be H L
difficult in some applications. FIGURE 1. Calculation of interface measurement
