4.10.3 Temperature compensation
The calculation of the temperature compensation is based on the pre-
set reference temperature, 20 °C or 25 °C. It appears on the display as 
Tr20 or Tr25.
You can select one of the following temperature compensation meth-
ods:
z Nonlinear temperature compensation (nLF) according to EN 27
888
z Linear temperature compensation (lin) with adjustable coeffi-
cients of 0.000 ... 3.000 %
/
K
z No temperature compensation (off)
Note
The reference temperature and temperature compensation are set in 
the menu for the parameter, conductivity (see section 4.10.4).
