Error
Possible cause
Remedy
During filling/emptying or
measurement, the measured
value jumps sporadically to a
higher level.
Signal is weakened (e.g. by
fluidisation of the surface, extreme
dust formation) - the interference
echoes are sometimes stronger.
Strong build-up, filling stream in
path of beam.
• Carry out tank mapping (
Confirm
distance
• Increase integration time (Expert
→ Sensor → Distance → Integration
time)
• Optimize alignment of antenna
• If necessary, select a better mounting
position and/or larger antenna.
• If necessary, clean antenna (purge
air).

"Echo lost"
Level echo is too weak.
Possible causes:
• Fluidisation of the surface
• Extreme dust formation
• Angle or repose
• Optimize alignment of antenna
• If necessary, select a better mounting
position and/or larger antenna.
