Xc-80 Environmental Compensator - Renishaw XM-60 multi-axis calibrator User Manual

XM multi-axis calibrator

XC-80 environmental compensator

The XM specified accuracy for interferometric measurements is only valid when
used with a calibrated XC-80 environmental compensator.
Changes in air temperature, pressure and relative humidity affect the wavelength
of the laser light and, therefore, the measurement readings taken.
The XC-80 environmental compensator and its sensors very accurately measure
the environmental conditions and compensate the wavelength of the laser beam
for variations in air temperature, air pressure and relative humidity.
Note: For full details on XC-80 operation and specification please refer to
XC-80 user guide.
