6.4. Replacing the Humidity Absorber
Dew point
calculation
The instrument continuously measures the humidity and temperature
inside the turbidimeter housing and calculates the dew point based
on these values. The dew point gives an indication of whether the
humidity absorber still has sufficient capacity to prevent condensa
-
tion inside the housing.
The dew point is visible in menu <Diagnostics>/<Sensors>/<Miscel
-
laneous>.
When to
replace the
humidity
absorber
The user is automatically prompted to replace the humidity absorber
when the dew point exceeds the following limits:
If the dew point is 3 °C or higher, maintenance message E068
“Replace absorber” appears. The instrument continues to mea
-
sure normally, but the humidity absorber should be replaced as
soon as possible.
If the dew point is 5 °C or higher, error message E006 “Ab
-
sorber exhausted” appears. The instrument stops measuring
and the humidity absorber must be replaced immediately.
CAUTION
If the humidity absorber is not replaced in time,
condensation may occur inside the housing.
This condensation can lead to incorrect measurements and
failure of the instrument.
Replace the humidity absorber when prompted.
Note:
The color indicator of the humidity absorber is no longer
relevant for newer instruments with dew point calculation.
