Check if the sensor is connected correctly.
- failures in the sensor, effecting a current change below 2 mA or

above 23 mA, cause a fault signal in VEGAMET.

Measure the current
on the connection cable
leading to the sensor.

With Ex systems, make sure that the Ex protection is not
degraded by the measuring instruments.
