Pressuretransmittersaredesignedtobesubmersedwithintheapplication
fluid.Thetransmitterscaneitherrest along the  bottomofthe tankor be
suspended at any desired level within the tank.Please note that the
physical location of the level transmitter will indicate the lowest level of
measurement within the tank.For example:mounting thetransmitter 1
footfromthebottomofthetank,thenthelowestreadingofliquidwillbe
1footfromthebottom.

HowtoconvertPressureintoLiquidHeight?
Pressuretransmittersarealldescribebythepressurerangeandnotbyliquidheight.Toconvertpressureto
liquidheight,usethefollowingratio:

1psi=2.31feetofwater
or
1psi=0.704metersofwater
 Therefore,a15psitransmitterwillhavealiquidheight=34.65feet
(10.56m):
15psix2.31’/psi=34.65’
or
15psix0.704m/psi=10.56m
With the above ratio, you can always find the liquid height or water
column(wc)ofanypressuretransmitter.
