minimum hydraulic head

Since it is for a scientific instrument the more scientific term -minimum piezometric head- may be more suitable.
Example sentence:

Hydraulic head can similarly be measured in a column of water using a standpipe piezometer by measuring the height of the water surface in the tube relative to a common datum.
