Concerns measurement of liquid level (stage), the most important of all measurements made in flow measurement. Deals with functional requirements, graduation, installation, accuracy and use of suitable measuring devices for single, instantaneous measurements and for continuous record of fluctuations of level. Includes details of devices used as aids to improve convenience or frequency of measurements.
