Liquid argon level in a pressurised storage tank (at 3 kg/cm2) is measured by a/an ____________________?

Correct answer: C. Differential pressure gage

  • A. Gage glass
  • B. External float gage
  • C. Differential pressure gage
  • D. None of these

Explanation

A differential-pressure gauge measures liquid level from the hydrostatic pressure difference between the tank bottom and the vapour space. This arrangement remains suitable when the tank is pressurised, unlike a simple gauge glass.
