Symptom Cause Action
Accuracy Varies Faulty temperature sensor Verify operation;
Replace if required, or use fixed
temperature. See Temperature
Source (2.12.1.3.) on page 181.
Vapours present in varying con-
centrations
Eliminate vapours or consider a
different technology. Contact your
Siemens representative.
Thermal gradients Insulate vessel;
Consider external temperature
sensor.
Calibration required If accuracy is better when level is
close to transducer, and worse
when level is far from transducer,
perform calibration [see Auto
Sound Velocity (2.12.1.6.) on page
182].
If accuracy is consistently incor-
rect, use Sensor Offset (2.2.3.) on
page 141 or perform calibration
[see Auto Sensor Offset (2.2.6.)
on page 142].
Reading erratic Transducer mounting: wrong
location or incorrectly mounted Ensure beam has a clear path to
material surface;
Verify transducer is not too tight;
Use an isolation coupling.
Unavoidable false echoes from
obstructions Use Auto False Echo Suppression.
See Auto False Echo Suppres-
sion (2.12.3.1.) on page 184.
Confidence too low Check Noise, Echo Strength, Con-
fidence. See Echo Quality (3.2.9.)
on page 204.
Check LOE Timer is not set too
short. See LOE Timer (2.4.2.) on
page 144.
Multiple echoes Check mounting location;
Verify material is not entering
Near Range zone. See Near
Range (2.2.4.) on page 141.
Noise in the application Verify source and minimize. See
“Noise Problems” on page 242.
