1)
This value takes into account failure types relevant to the function of the electronic components according
to Siemens SN29500.
2)
During this time, all diagnostic functions are executed at least once.
3)
Time between error detection and error response.
4)
Step response time as per DIN EN 61298-2.
5)
Proof test coverage when the level is approached, or when the sensor is removed and the tines are
immersed in a medium of similar density and viscosity.
6)
Proof test coverage when simulation is performed on the Nivotester or the electronic insert FEL58 by
activating the test button.
7)
Proof test coverage when checking the switch point under reference operating conditions.
