The following circumstances cause interfering reflections and can influence the measurement: l high sockets l vessel installations such as struts l agitators l buildup or welded joints on vessel walls note: a false signal suppression detects, marks and saves these false signals so that they are no lon...
Page 28
Note: check the distance to the product surface, because if an incorrect (too large) value is entered, the existing level will be saved as false signal. The filling level would then no longer be detectable in this area. If a false signal suppression is already created in the sensor, then the followin...
