Troubleshooting

Every Milltronics ILE-37 sensing head is subjected to extensive quality assurance
procedures to ensure the highest possible degree of quality, reliability, and performance
is achieved.
The following listing indicates the probable cause, and proper course of action to be
taken should the specified fault symptom occur.
Symptom
Integrator rate display doesn't
change when sensing plate is
moved.
Span adjustment does not have
enough range.
Measurement results are not
repeatable.
Accuracy varies with material
flowrate.
