What does it mean if my Rosemount 8700 show a reading near 68kV?
- JJasmine WilliamsJul 27, 2025
A reading close to 68kV points to a possible shorted electrode.
What does it mean if my Rosemount 8700 show a reading near 68kV?
A reading close to 68kV points to a possible shorted electrode.
Why do Rosemount 8700 show a reading on the scale?
Any reading on the scale suggests there's a resistive path from the coils to the electrode.
