  • Page 55: Wet/Dry Measurement Deviations, Conversion Table

    Wet/Dry Measurement Deviations, Conversion Table NOTICE The LT2 carries out measurements directly in the humid flue gases (wet measurement). When extractive devices are used, flue gases are removed and prepared. "Dry Measurements" are normally used here, since the humidity has been extracted from the flue gas. As a result, O measurement values vary (see diagrams below).
