Select between two ways of compensation:
1)
Automatic compensation
with temperature sensor
Mind that the temperature sensor should always measure the temperature around the conductivity sensor.
When conductivity sensor and temperature sensor are not immersed in the same solution, better switch to
manual compensation.
2)
Manual compensation
If the temperature can be regarded as constant, you can enter the temperature manually instead of
measuring it continuously. The device will then compensate the temperature error of this temperature.
6.3.1
Temperature coefficient
With the temperature coefficient you can adjust the degree of compensation. The coefficient is given as %/K.
For example, with a coefficient of 2%/K two percent of the measured value are subtracted per degree of
temperature above 25°C.
6.3.2
Calibration of the temperature measurement
When using a 2-wire connection for the temperature sensor, please check the temperature measurement in
the beginning. If the displayed temperature differs from the real temperature, enter the deviation as
correction in the basic settings. This correction will be added to all temperature measurements. If your
calibration was correct, the temperature displayed is now equal to the real temperature.
