velocity of the light in air is affected by the temperature and air pressure.
Calculate the atmospheric correction factor as shown in following formula.
If the unit is mmHg, please convert as:
1hPa
=
0.75mmHg
If the atmospheric correction is not required, set the ppm value to 0.
·
The KTS series are designed so that the correction factor is 0 ppm at an air pressure of 1,013 hPa and a
temperature of 20
℃
.
