1) Restrictionss: for materials with a strong signal damping, e.g. ground material, wheat bran or silicic acid, the measuring range may be reduced.
• Reduction of the max. possible measuring range through buildup, above all of moist products.
• The respective lower group applies for very loose or loosened bulk solids.
