Depending on the reason for the fault and the measures taken, the
steps described in chapter "Set up" may have to be carried out again.
8.3 Exchanging the electronics module
In case of a defect, the electronics module can be exchanged by the
user against an identical type. If no electronics module is available on
side, the module can be ordered from the agency serving you.
Ordering and exchange are possible with or without sensor serial
number. The electronics module with serial number includes order-
specific data such as factory setting, seal material etc. These are not
included in the electronics module without serial number.

Fault message can also appear if the pressure is higher than the nominal
range.
