Gauge pressure in the vessel does not influence OPTISOUND
3040 C. Low pressure or vacuum, however, damp the
ultrasonic pulses. This influences the measuring result,
particularly if the level is very low. With pressures under -
0.2 bar (-20 kPa) you should use a different measuring
principle, e.g. radar or guided radar (TDR).
