The electrodes are dirty.

→

Clean the electrodes (see chap.
10.3).

The electrodes are not in
contact with the fluid.

→

Make sure the electrodes are always
in contact with the fluid

Air bubbles appear in the

Respect the mounting recommenda-
tions (see chap. 8.2).

→

Select the "slow" filter (see chap.
9.5).

The flow sensor has not
been immersed for 24 h
before calibration of the
"flow zero" point.

→

Respect the calibration procedure
(see chap. 9.7).

The flow rate fluctuations
are very important.
