10.5 Treatment of measurement errors
The tables below give typical examples of application-related meas-
urement errors.
The images in column " Error description" show the actual level as a
dashed line and the output level as a solid line.

Note:
If the output level is constant, the cause could also be the fault setting
of the current output to " Hold value".
If the level is too low, the reason could be a line resistance that is too
high
Liquids: Measurement error at constant level

Due to the process, the amplitude of the
level echo sinks
A false signal suppression was not car-
ried out
Carry out a false signal suppression
Amplitude or position of a false signal
has changed (e.g. condensation, build-
up); false signal suppression no longer
matches actual conditions
Determine the reason for the changed
false signals, carry out false signal sup-
pression, e.g. with condensation.
