DB1 Liquid Level Measurement Sensor 1. Overview The double bubbler is a self-cali brating system for l iquid level m easurement. This manual focuses on water level measurement in stilling wells o r open channels, but the inform ation applies to other l iquids as well.
DB1 Liquid Level Measurement Sensor 2. Specifications Measurement Range: Option - 5 (0 to 5 psi/0 to 11.5 ft.) Option - 15 (0 to 15 psi/0 to 34.5 ft.) Option - 30 (0 to 30 psi/0 to 69 ft .) Maximum Overpressure Range: Option - 5 20 psi Option - 10 45 psi Option - 15 60 psi Transducer Accuracy: ± 0.
DB1 Liquid Level Measurement Sensor fluctuates between 5 and 15 ft (2.2 a nd 6.5 psi ), set the pressure regulator above 7 psi (read 10 psi) to ensure adequate pressure. Open the nitrogen bottle valve, set the p ressure regulator, an d adjust the nitrogen flow by adjusting t he two needle valves.
