Depending on the reason for the fault and the measures taken, the

steps described in chapter "Set up" may have to be carried out again.

8.3 Exchanging the electronics module

In case of a defect, the electronics module can be exchanged by the

user against an identical type. If no electronics module is available on

side, the module can be ordered from the agency serving you.
Ordering and exchange are possible with or without sensor serial

number. The electronics module with serial number includes order-

specific data such as factory setting, seal material etc. These are not

included in the electronics module without serial number.

Fault message can also appear if the pressure is higher than the nominal

range.
