Symptom Problem Solution
No loop current Power supply not turned on. Turn on power.
Insufficient source voltage. The ES II requires a minimum of 12 VDC at
terminals TB1 and TB2 while the EZ requires
a minimum of 12 VDC at terminals P3 and
P4 on amplifier board.
Wires broken/improperly connected. Check wiring.
Defective PC board. Replace PC board.

Displacer hanging up. Verify proper and level installation.
Excessive loop resistance. Increase power supply voltage, or decrease
loop resistance (For Digital ES II, max 545
ohms @ 24 VDC, 450 ohms for HART; for
Analog EZ, max 480 ohms @ 24VDC).
Span point cannot be decreased Span incorrectly set. Recalibrate unit.

Displacer hanging up. Verify proper and level installation.
Loop current oscillates or hunts. Waves or disturbances in medium. Adjust damping via HART (ES II) or install
stilling well. See Section 3.5.4.
Loop current randomly unstable. Waves or disturbances in medium. Adjust damping via HART.
Power supply unstable. Repair or replace power supply.
Electrical interference (RFI). Consult factory for assistance.
