There is a number of possible causes of an underrange:
•
the pressure in the vacuum system is lower than the
measurement range
•
the measurement element has not ignited (yet)
•
the discharge has failed
•
a defect has occurred
Caution
Caution: relay is switching
An underrange can lead to unintended reac-
tions of the connected control system.
Prevent false control signals and messages
by disconnecting the sensor and control ca-
bles.
