7 Maintenance and fault rectification

7.1 Maintenance

When used as directed in normal operation, OPTISWITCH

4000 C is completely maintenance free.

7.2 Rectify faults

OPTISWITCH 4000 C offers maximum reliability. Nevertheless

faults can occur during operation. These may be caused by the

following, e.g.:

l

Sensor

l

Process

l

Power supply

l

Signal processing

The first measure to be taken is to check the output signal. In

many cases, the causes can be determined this way and the

faults rectified.
