Before recommissioning, the sensor head must be completely dry. The drying process can be accelerated by gently blowing it off. If this procedure does not help, the sensor must be sent to SCHMIDT Technology for cleaning or repair. Eliminating malfunctions The following Table 9 lists possible errors (error images).
