ment
± 5 mm (0.197 in)
Typical deviation - Total level interface
measurement
See following diagrams
Typical deviation - Level measurement 2)3) See following diagrams
1) With interface measurement = 2.0
2) Depending on the installation conditions, there can be deviations which can be rectified with an adaptation of
the adjustment or a change of the measured value offset in the DTM service mode
3) The dead bands can be optimizes by a false signal suppression.
