OPERATION TROUBLESHOOTING
Operating symptoms, probable causes, and resolutions.
Display/Symptom
Cause
Action
S:0 LOE
Level or target is out of range
•
check specifications
•
check Low Calibration Point (2.3.5.1.)
S: 0 LOE
Material build-up on antenna
•
use the air purge feature to clean the antenna
•
re-locate unit
S: 0 LOE
Location or aiming:
• poor installation
• flange not level
• Auto False Echo Suppression may be
incorrectly applied
•
check to ensure nozzle/standpipe is vertical
•
ensure the nozzel is not protruding into
antenna area
•
review Auto False Echo Suppression (2.4.8.1.)
•
ensure Auto Suppression Range is set
correctly
S: 0 LOE
Antenna malfunction:
• temperature too high
• physical damage
•
check temperature in Maximum Value (3.4.2.)
•
relocate unit
Reading does not
change, but the level
does
Unit processing wrong echo, i.e. vessel
wall, or structural member
•
re-locate unit
•
check nozzle for internal burrs or welds
•
use Auto False Echo Suppression (2.4.8.1.) if
necessary: see Auto False Echo Suppression
(2.4.8.1.)
Measurement is
consistently
off by a constant amount
• setting for Low Calibration Point
(2.3.5.1) not correct
• setting for Sensor Offset (2.3.5.3.) not
correct
•
check distance from sensor reference point to
Low Calibration Point (2.3.5.1.)
•
check Sensor Offset (2.3.5.3.)
Screen blank
Power error
•
check nameplate rating against voltage
supply
•
check power wiring or source
Reading erratic
Echo confidence weak
•
refer to Confidence (2.4.7.1.)
•
use Auto False Echo Suppression (2.4.8.1.) and
Auto False EchoSuppression Range (2.4.8.2.)
•
use foam deflector or stillpipe
Material filling
•
relocate unit
Reading response
slow
Fill Rate/Min (2.3.6.2.) setting is
incorrect
•
increase measurement response if possible
Reads correctly but
occasionally reads high
when vessel is not full
• detecting close range echo
• build up near top of vessel or nozzle
• nozzle problem
•
use the air purge feature to clean the antenna
•
use Auto False Echo Suppression (2.4.8.1.)
and Auto False Echo Suppression Range
(2.4.8.2.)
