This effect depends on the superimposed gas or vapour and increases with low tem-peratures. The following table shows the deviation caused by some typical gases or vapours. Thestated values refer to the distance. Positive values mean that the measured distance is too high,negative values that the measured distance is too small.Gas phase Temperature 1 bar/14.5 psig 10 bar/145 psig 50 bar/725 psigAir/Nitrogen 20 °C/68 °F 0.00 % 0.22 % 1.2 %Air/Nitrogen 200 °C/392 °F 0.00 % 0.13 % 0.74 %Hydrogen 20 °C/68 °F -0.01 % 0.10 % 0.61 %Hydrogen 200 °C/392 °F -0.02 % 0.05 % 0.37 %Water (saturatedsteam)100 °C/212 °F 0.20 % - -Water (saturatedsteam)180 °C/356 °F - 2.1 % -Ambient conditionsAmbient, storage and transport tempera-ture-40 … +80 °C (-40 … +176 °F)Process conditionsFor the process temperature and the vessel pressure, you also have to note the specifications onthe type label!
