Smartec CLD18 Commissioning Commissioning Switching on the measuring device Familiarize yourself with the operation of the transmitter before it is first switched on. After power-up, the device performs a self-test and then goes to the measuring mode. If you are commissioning the device for the first time, Setup program the as described in the following sections of the Operating Instructions.
Commissioning Smartec CLD18 Configuring the measuring device Use the ' E ' key to call up the main menu. Navigate through the available menus with the ' + ' and ' – ' keys. Press the ' E ' key to open the desired menu.

Smartec CLD18 Commissioning 8.4.1 Installation factor In confined installation conditions, the conductivity measurement in the liquid is affected by the pipe walls. This effect is offset by the installation factor. The cell constant is corrected by multiplying by the installation factor.
Page 30
Commissioning Smartec CLD18 8.4.2 Temperature compensation The conductivity of a liquid depends heavily on the temperature, as the mobility of the ions and the number of dissociated molecules are temperature-dependent. In order to compare measured values, they must be referenced to a defined temperature. The reference temperature is 25 °C (77 °F).
Smartec CLD18 Commissioning 8.4.3 Measuring range switch (MRS) Measuring range switching involves a parameter set changeover for two substances: • in order to cover a large measuring range • in order to adjust temperature compensation in the event of a product change The two analog outputs can each be configured with two parameter sets.

Commissioning Smartec CLD18 Calibrating the cell constant ‣ With this type of calibration, enter a reference value for the conductivity. In the result, the device calculates a new cell constant for the sensor. First switch off the temperature compensation: Select the menu Setup/Extended setup/Input/Temp.
Page 33
Smartec CLD18 Commissioning 8.5.3 Air set (residual coupling) For physical reasons, the calibration line goes through zero in the case of conductive sensors (a current flow of 0 corresponds to a conductivity of 0). When working with inductive sensors, the residual coupling between the primary coil (transmitter coil) and secondary coil (receiver coil) must be taken into account or compensated for.
