5.7
Concentration measurement
The Liquisys M can convert conductivity
values to concentration values.
Since the relationship between concentration
and conductivity also depends on the
temperature, the conversion is performed
based on a user-defined field (three
variables: temperature, conductivity,
concentration).
The calculation requires a field limited by
user-defined upper and lower limits (the
8 values depicted in Fig. 5.16). The expected
measured values must be located in the
range between the curves defined by the user
(hatched area).
The curve defined by the user must rise
monotonically (as shown in Fig. 5.16) or fall
monotonically.
Note:
The temperature coefficient is
determined as described in chpt. 5.6;
the corresponding concentration is
to be determined separately.
