8.3 Exchanging the electronics module

If the electronics module is defective, it can be replaced by the user.
In Ex applications only one instrument and one electronics module

with respective Ex approval may be used.
If there is no electronics module available on site, one can be ordered

from the VEGA agency serving you.

The new electronics module must be loaded with the order data of the

sensor. These are the options:

At the factory by VEGA

Or on site by the user
