Maintenance and fault rectification

7

.1 Maintenance

When used in the correct way, no special maintenance is required in
normal operation.

7

.2 Remove interferences

A maximum of reliability is ensured. Nevertheless, faults can occur
during operation. These may be caused by the following, e.g.:

l

Measured value from sensor not correct

l

Power supply

l

Interference on the cables

The first measure to be taken is to check the input and output signals.
The procedure is described as follows. In many cases the causes can
be determined this way and faults can be easily rectified.

However, should these measures not be successful, call the VEGA
service hotline in urgent cases under the phone no. +49 1805 858550.

The hotline is available to you 7 days a week round-the-clock. Since
we offer this service world-wide, the support is only available in the
English language. The service is free of charge, only the standard
telephone costs will be charged.
