4 Calibration
This section describes how to calibrate the sensor and involves
measuring the sensor's sensitivity to oxygen by exposing the
sensor to water-saturated air.
Calibrations are initiated via the
Cal
prompt displayed on
Operator pages or via the
Calibrate
and
Advanced
menu
items on the
Access Level
page – refer to transmitter Operating
instructions
for all transmitter menu options.
Note .
• Do not perform a calibration until the sensor and transmitter
are installed and ready for operation.
• Before removing the sensor for calibration purposes, set the
currents outputs and alarms to Hold (enabled via the
Operator Menu/Manual Hold function).
• After calibration and sensor replacement, reset the currents
outputs and alarms – see
below.

Probe Calibration
Calibration Type
1-Point Cal
Select to perform a 1-point calibration in water-saturated air (100% saturation):
2-Point Cal
Select to perform a 100 % saturation calibration in water-saturated air and a 0 % saturation
calibration in an oxygen-depleted solution, e.g. sodium sulfite (Na
2
SO
3
).
Hold Outputs
Enable/disable the
Hold Outputs
function. If enabled, the current outputs and alarm functions are
held during calibrations.
