6 Maintenance and fault rectification
6.1 Maintenance
If the device is used properly, no special maintenance is required in
normal operation.
In some applications, product buildup on the diaphragm can influence
the measuring result. Depending on the sensor and application, take
precautions to ensure that heavy buildup, and especially a hardening
thereof, is avoided.
If necessary, clean the diaphragm. Make sure that the materials are
resistant against the cleanig, see resistance list under "Service" on
"www.vega.com".
6.2

Rectify faults

The operator of the system is responsible for taking suitable meas-
ures to rectify faults.
VEGAWELL 52 offers maximum reliability. Nevertheless, faults can
occur during operation. These may be caused by the following, e.g.:
•
Sensor
•
Process
•
Voltage supply
•
Signal processing
The first measure to take is to check the output signal. In many cases,
the causes can be determined this way and the faults quickly rectified.
Should these measures not be successful, please call in urgent cases
the VEGA service hotline under the phone no. +49 1805 858550.
The hotline is manned 7 days a week round-the-clock. Since we offer
this service worldwide, the support is only available in the English
language. The service is free, only standard call charges are incurred.
Connect a multimeter in the suitable measuring range according to
the wiring plan.
