9.1 Trouble-shooting instructions
Always start trouble-shooting with the checklist below, if faults occur after start-up or
during operation. The routine takes you directly to the cause of the problem and the
appropriate remedial measures.

Caution!
In the event of a serious fault, a flowmeter might have to be returned to the manufacturer
for repair. The procedures on Page 8 must be carried out before you return a flowmeter
to Endress+Hauser.
Always enclose a duly completed “Declaration of contamination” form. You will find a
preprinted form at the back of this manual.

Error messages on display
Errors which occur during commissioning or measuring operation are displayed immediately.
Error messages consist of a variety of icons. The meanings of these icons are as follows (example):
– Error type: S = System error, P = Process error
– Error message type:
$ = Fault message, ! = Notice message
– S.VELOC RANGE = Error designation (e.g. sound velocity outside measuring range)
– 03:00:05 = Duration of error occurrence (in hours / minutes / seconds)
– # 491 = Error number
" Caution!
• See the information on Page 61 ff.!
• The measuring system interprets simulations and positive zero return as system errors, but displays
them as notice messages only.
