6.4 Proof test

To find out possible undetected, dangerous failures, a proof test must

be carried out in adequate time intervals to check the safety function.

It is the user's responsibility to choose the type of testing.
You will find further instructions in the Safety Manual.
The following options are available for carrying out the proof test:
1. Short interruption of the supply line to the sensor or pushing the

test key (with function test).
Average coverage (detected errors)

2. Dismounting of the sensor and immersion in the original medium

High coverage (detected errors)

3. Filling of the vessel up to the switching point

1)

Electronics directly evaluated via the analogue input of a control system

(without signal conditioning instrument)
