.2.2. system error
0 = no error
1 = operating voltage too low
2 = operating voltage too high
3 = operating/transmitter voltage too low
4 = temperature too high > 85°
5 = sensor system defective
6 = system adjustment causes oscillation
7 = system adjustment too low
8 = system adjustment too high

10. Maintenance
Insufficient sensitivity.
➜
If the sensitivity has already been reduced due to electro-magnet-
ic interference fields, mount the probe head at least two meters
away from the former. If necessary, select another mounting loca-
tion.
➜
Check the material, weight and distance of the metal particles and
compare with the tables on page 8 as to whether these particles
may be detected.
The system indicates metal particles although none are present.
➜
Check the supply voltage. If it fluctuates by more than ±10 %, con-
nect the metal detector to another power circuit.
➜
Check the electrical leads for defects.
➜
Check whether the switching on of another machine has triggered
the signal. If this is the case, connect the metal detector to anoth-
er power circuit.
➜
Check whether the signal was triggered by electrostatic charging.
If this was the case, mount an ionising rod in front of the metal de-
tector. Check the grounding strips on the metal detector.
➜
Check whether the sensitivity is set too high.
➜
Check whether the probe head surface is damaged.
The metal detector no longer registers particles in the entire
probing range.
➜
Check the supply voltage.
Metal detector MDS 50 is maintenance-free. The probe head should
however always be clean. Deposits increase the distance web to
probe head, thereby decreasing the system sensitivity.
Clean the probing surface regularly with a damp cloth. Do not
use solvents.
Due to reasons of operational safety, repairs to the covering
layer and electronic modules should be performed by E+L
only.
