Temperature Calibration
The temperature calibration is a single point calibration. Place the temperature sensor in an
accurately known temperature environment and allow to stabilise. Enter the calibration (
CAL
)
mode and step through the functions by pressing the
F
button until the display shows
CAL "C
.
Press the
^
and
v
simultaneously the display will show
CAL"C
followed by the live temperature
reading. Press the
F
button, the display will now show
"C
. Now press the
^
or
v
button to set
the correct temperature value then press the
F
button, the display will read
CAL1End
indicating
that the calibration is complete. If any other message is seen refer to section
6.8
Conductivity/Resistivity/ppm Uncalibration
This function sets the instrument calibration back to the factory calibrated value. Uncalibrate is
useful as a temporary measure when the probe is replaced and on the spot recalibration is difficult
or when a calibrating error exists due to incorrect calibration. To enter the uncalibrate mode follow
the procedure described above and step through the functions by pressing the
F
button until the
display shows
UCAL cond
or
UCAL RESt
or
UCAL ppm
. Press the
^
and
v
pushbuttons
simultaneously the display will show
UCAL End
indicating that the calibration is cleared. If any
other message is seen refer to section
6.9
Temperature Uncalibration
This function sets the instrument calibration back to that of an ideal temperature sensor. Uncal-
ibrate is useful as a temporary measure when the probe is replaced and on the spot recalibration
is difficult or when a calibrating error exists due to incorrect calibration. To enter the uncalibrate
mode follow the procedure described above and step through the functions by pressing the
F
but-
ton until the display shows
UCAL"C
. Press the
^
and
v
pushbuttons simultaneously the display
will show
UCAL End
indicating that the calibration is cleared. If any other message is seen refer
to section
6.10
Equivalent resistance values
Equivalent resistance values The following table shows equivalent resistances for various conduc-
tivity levels and cell constants. If errors are encountered in the display value or if difficulties are
encountered in calibration then an appropriate value resistor can be used in place of the cell to
perform basic checks on the instrument operation. The value of resistance can be calculated from:
