Permissible conditions at the place of storage:
Storage temperature: -30 ... +80 °C [-22 ... +176 °F]
5. Commissioning, operation

5.1 Functional check
Prior to installation, a functional check of the level sensor can be carried
out with a resistance measuring instrument or a multimeter (for instru-
ments with current or voltage output signal) and manual movement of the
float.
The following table describes the 3-wire resistance measurement and
the expected measured values for the movement of the float, starting
from the float limitation in the direction of the tank opening.
