This figure refers to the highest navigable water level (HSW) — the level at which navigation is suspended. So as long as you are allowed to move at all, the Moselle is no higher than that and there is at least this much room under the bridge. At mean water there is considerably more.
No HSW value is published for the Perl gauge. A day-to-day clearance cannot honestly be derived from it; the minimum figure stands.

The figure applies in the middle of the navigation span. At the edge of the arch there is less. Aerial, bimini, radar arch and flagstaff all count — and so does the wash of oncoming craft.
