Calibration standards
Objects with the same attributes (or as close as possible) as the measur-
ing object with known
-ferrite contents that have been measured with
an extremely accurate test method.
Calibration standard set
The calibration standard sets used for the corrective calibration of the
FERITSCOPE
®
FMP30 consist of the Base and three calibration stan-
dards of different
-ferrite contents (cf. Figure 16.5). Various calibration
standards sets for corrective calibration are available from FISCHER to
prepare the instrument for different measuring ranges.

Fe
Xn
0 1
The ferrite content Fe is displayed as a
function of the countrate Xn in a calibra-
tion curve.
Xn = 0 Base (ferrite content:
140 FN or 105 Fe%)
Xn = 1 ferrite content: 0 FN or 0 Fe%
