6.2.2 Manual Temperature Compensation
For manual temperature compensation you can set the process and calibration
temperatures. This allows calibration at a temperature other than the process
temperature. Example: setting a calibration temperature of 25°C lets you calibrate
using standard solutions at 25°C, even if your process temperature is different from
25°C.
From the measurement mode,
1. Press the ENT key and use ▲ or ▼ keys to select ‘ SEt o C ’.
2. Press the ENT key to enter the temperature compensation mode. Display
shows ‘ AtC On ’ or ‘ AtC Off ’. Use S or T keys to select ‘ AtC Off ’ and
then press the ENT key.
3. The primary display will show temperature (default is 25.0), and the
secondary display shows ‘P °C’’. This is the page for setting the
temperature of your process or sample by using an accurate thermometer
as reference.
4. Use ▲ or ▼ keys to set the transmitter to the temperature of your process
or sample. Press the ENT key.
5. The primary display shows temperature (default is 25.0), and secondary
display shows ‘C °C’. This is the page for setting the temperature of your
calibration solutions.
6. Use ▲ or ▼ keys to set the transmitter to the temperature of your
calibration solutions. Press the ENT key.
7. Press S and T keys together, to return to the measurement mode.
The transmitter will now compensate conductivity readings for the manually set
temperature (values taken from P °C’).
