Treatment of measurement errors

The tables below give typical examples of application-related measurement errors.
The images in column "

 show the actual level as a dashed line 

and

 

the output level as a solid line.

  1  

Real level

  2  

Level displayed by the transmitter

Note

If the output level is constant, the cause could also be the fault setting of the current

 

output to " 

Hold value

.

If the level is too low, the reason could be a line resistance that is too high
