1)
The statistical accuracy is typically 3 mm (0.12") 90% of the time, when tested in accordance
with IEC 60770-1.
2)
Under severe EMI/EMC environments per IEC 61326-1 or NAMUR NE21, the device error
may increase to a maximum of 10 mm (0.4").
3)
For 2" threaded PVDF antenna, Flanged encapsulated antennas and Hygienic encapsulated
antennas, the maximum measured error <500 mm from the sensor reference point =25 mm (1").

Reference conditions: Response Rate (2.4.1.) set to FAST, LCD Fast Mode (4.9.) set to
ON.
