Mode
In the automatic mode, the measured temperature values are used to compensate the temperature
influence on the measurement, and in the manual mode, a manual temperature setting is used.
Note
On the desktop is shown whether the shown value is set manual (Tman) or
measured (Tauto).
Manual value
Enter the temperature of your solution for manual compensation. If you want to deactivate temperature
compensation, set the manual value to the same value as the reference temperature and set mode to
manual.
Note
If the mode is auto, the input for the manual value is hided.
Temperature compensation
The temperature dependence is relative to the solution composition thats why the compensation runs
approximately linear. For ultra pure water is compostion of the probe known and non-linear compen-
sation is used. Choose for measurement below 2 µS ultra pure water.
Temperature coefficient (only for linear compensation)
Via the temperature coefficient you can adjust the compensation. The coefficient defines the amount
of compensation as % correction per degree and depends on temperature and concentration. For
many applications, a coefficient of 2.1-2.5 % / K has proved advantageous.
