Minimum Distances - Tecfluid Series LT Instruction Manual

6.1

Minimum distances

It is important to take in account some distances that must be kept in order to remove the
float due to a change in density or for maintenance purposes.
Distance LMS between the lowest side of the level gauge and the floor must be kept longer
or equal to LD distance.
On the other hand, the lower dimension LD, LP or LPV of series LT level gauges is variable
depending on the working liquid density. The lower the density, the longer the dimension.
