2.
Clean and dry the probe.
3.
Place the sensor and thermometer in the calibration solution
(Cat. No. 3230). The temperature sensor is located in the middle of the
sensor body allowing the probe to be completely submerged in
the solution.

4.
Allow the sensor to stabilize in the solution about 10 minutes to ensure
that the probe and the solution are the same temperature.

Enter the temperature correction factor or enter zero for no correction
factor.
factor.
Note: The temperature correction factor is used to compensate for the effects of
temperature on the conductivity readings at the point of installation. The
conductivity of a solution is temperature sensitive. Therefore the actual
conductivity of the solution will change with the temperature. Each site may have a
different correction factor depending on the major constituent of the flow stream.
This is not used for calibration and has no effect on the calibration of the sensor.
Below are some examples of compensation factors of various liquids.

following example.
Example: The KCl calibration solution is 1.0 mS at 25°C. If the actual
temperature of the KCl at the time of calibration is 18.4 °C, then the solution
has a conductivity value of 0.870 mS.

a.
Find the difference between the labeled temperature and the actual
temperature of the calibration solution at the time of calibration.
temperature of the calibration solution at the time of calibration.
25 °C – 18.4 °C = 6.6 °C
b. Multiply the difference (6.6) by the correction factor per °C (1.97% or
0.0197).
6.6 °C x 0.0197/°C = 0.13002
