According to the “USP” directive (U.S. Pharmacopeia), Section 645

“Water Conductivity”, the conductivity of pharmaceutical waters can

be monitored online. To do so, the conductivity is measured without

temperature compensation and is compared with limit values (see

“Temperature/ conductivity table according to USP” on Pg 95).

The water is usable if the conductivity is below the USP limit. For higher

conductivities, further test steps must be performed according to the

directive.

To increase safety, the USP limit value can be reduced in the transmitter.

To do so, a factor (%) is entered.

Configuration steps

menu group:

When USP function has been selected, the measuring range is

fixed to 00.00 ... 99.99 µS/cm. Temperature compensation is switched

off. Temperature is monitored (see Pg ).

• In the

rL .

menu group select USP as limit function.

Relays 1 and 2 can now be used as USP limit contacts

(see Pg ).

• Reduced limit contact U1 (Relay 1):

Enter USP factor (reduced limit, configurable in the range

10 % ... 100 %)

Set contact response for relay 1.

Set delay time (see Pg ).

• Limit contact U2

Set contact response for relay 2.

Set delay time (see Pg ).
