l Process temperature compensation
SelectatemperaturecompensationmethodfromamongNone,TC,NaCl,andMatrix.“None”
does not perform the temperature compensation.
l TC
This method uses the linear compensation function.
Forhowtocalculateatemperaturecoefcientofthecompensationfunction,see“lCongure
calculatedtemperaturecoefcient(TC).”onpageApp.3-1.
l NaCl
ThismethodusesthestandardtemperaturecompensationfunctionwithNaClsolution.
For details, see “lNaClorstandardtemperaturecompensation”onpageApp.3-1.
l Matrix
Thismethodusesthetemperaturecompensationmatrix,whichisatableoftheconductivity
valuesatdifferenttemperaturesandconcentrationsforaspecicsolution.Themeasured
conductivityiscompensatedbasedonthismatrixtotheconductivityatthereference
temperature.
Preparedmatrixesanduser-denedmatrixescanbeused.Twodifferentuser-dened
matrixesareavailable.
For details, see “lMatrixcompensation”onpageApp.3-3.
When the measured temperature or the precompensated conductivity is out of the range, the
temperature compensation error (warning) will be issued. This is not a device error.
Formoredetails,see“■Temperaturecompensationerror”onApp.3-8.
Any two of these three methods can be set for conductivity measurement as “Temp.comp.1” and
“Temp.comp.2”. The result of either method can be output or displayed (see “10.2 Output setup”
or“10.6Displaysetup”).
When “Measurement” is set to “Conduct. + Concentr.” for the Measurement, only one method
can be set.
NOTE
The temperature compensation is not performed around zero. In this case, a warning may be
issued.
10.1.5 Calibration settings
Thescreenowdiffersdependingonthecombinationofobjectstobemeasured.
l Air adjust limit
Generally,aircalibrationisnotrequired.Toavoidtheeffectsofthecableonthemeasurementof
lower conductivities such as pure water, a “zero” calibration with a dry sensor may be done.
Perform a zero-calibration using a dry sensor to prevent the cable from affecting the
measurement.Ifaterminalbox(BA20)andextensioncable(WF10)areused,performthezero-
calibration while they are connected.
Asthecalibrationisperformedinair,theresistivityisinnite(openconnection).Higher
conductivity values than the air adjust limit indicate that the cell is not in air or is still wet. To
prevent wrong air calibrations, a limit must be given here.
