    COMP MODE 2 is a setting that gives the actual temperature compensated Resistivity or Conductivity values. In some operating conditions the feed water can be warmer or cooler than the water temperature inside the Milli-Q. This can cause small fluctuations of the resistivity and Conductivity values. Resistivity values could fluctuate between 18.0 MΩ.cm and 18.4 MΩ.cm @ 25 °C while the actual resistivity value is 18.2 MΩ.cm @ 25 °C.
