7 Maintenance and fault rectification7.1 MaintenanceWhen used in the correct way, no special maintenance is required innormal operation.7.2 Remove interferencesThe operator of the system is responsible for taken suitable measuresto remove interferences.A maximum of reliability is ensured. Nevertheless, faults can occurduring operation. These may be caused by the following, e.g.:l Sensorl Processl Power supplyl Signal processingThe first measure to be taken is to check the output signal. In manycases, the causes can be determined this way and the faults rectified.However, should these measures not be successful, call the VEGAservice hotline in urgent cases under the phone no. +49 1805 858550.The hotline is available to you 7 days a week round-the-clock.
