Non-ProZ.com Apr 13, 2005: An Rolf, I have also translated it as column height, but needed a confirmation (or disagreement) on that
Non-ProZ.com Apr 13, 2005: sp�ter im Text erscheint noch: Place a container of zero reference water above the analyzer with at least two feet of head. Aber ich wei� nicht, ob es um das selbe geht.

If \'column height\' is rendered as \'Saeulenhoehe\', it could lead to misunderstandings. I\'d stay with \'Druckhoehe\'.
