5.5 Gas Correction Factor
The output signal of the Pirani sensor inside your VD83 depends on type and
composition of the gas being measured. The device is adjusted for N
2
and dry
air, for He and CO the deviation can be neglected below 0.5 mbar. For other
gases a correction factor can be set which produces correct readings below
0.5 mbar. The measurements of the Pirani sensor are hereby multiplied with the
correction factor.
Correction factor Pirani:

To adjust the gas correction factor, switch the unit into Configuration Mode. For
this the instrument must be switched-off. Hold the Mode-Key pressed then, until
the display shows "rAtE".
Then press Mode-Key several times, until the display shows "corr":
After 5 more seconds the current factor setting is displayed:
The setting range is 0.20 to 8.00.
The value can now be incremented by means
of the Mode-Key. If you hold the key pressed
the value counts up automatically to 8.00 and
then restarts at 0.20.
Without further keystroke, the unit switches to Auto-Off Mode after approx. 5
seconds. The last setting of the gas correction factor is saved.
If a correction factor different from 1,00 is
set, symbol "S1" is shown at the lower
boundary of the display!
