7.6.2 Humidity calibration
The incubator can be calibrated for the individual customer by means of two balance points
at 20 and at 90 % relative humidity. For each selected balance point a positive or negative
compensation correction value can be set between –5 % and +5 %.

1. Set the desired humidity balance point in the SETUP (see page 44 ) and set accompanying
compensation correction value to
0.0 °C.
2. With a reference instrument, measure the deviation in the stationary state in the selected
humidity balance point.
3. Setting the compensation correction value in the SETUP. If the measured reference humid-
ity is too low, the compensation correction value must be set with a negative sign.
4. Perform a control measurement with the reference instrument.
The procedure can be performed with humidity balance points of 20% rh and 90% rh.
Example: Humidity deviation at 90 % should be corrected.
1. Set humidity balance point in the SETUP to
RH 90
and set the accompanying compensation
correction value to
0.0

2. With a calibrated reference instrument, an actual humidity of 88% rh is measured at nor-
mal operation, with a set setpoint humidity of
90 %rh.
3. Set the compensation correction value in the SETUP for
RH 90 to –2.0 %rh:
