4. After 2 hours check the instrument reading; it should be 12% ± 2%.
If readjustment is necessary:
Model 509-1/2: Remove 4 screws on back of instrument; gently open hous-
ing. See Figure 1 for pot location.
Model 509-3/4: Remove screw from probe housing and gently pull out the
PC board. See Figure 2 for the location of the potentiome-
ters. To readjust the pots without removing the probe hous-
ing you can drill through the two prepared holes, situated in
the middle of the housing.
5. Adjust the zero potentiometer for a reading of 12% RH.
6. Replace the 12% RH bottle with the 90% bottle. Close the 12% bottle.
7. Wait for 2 hours and check instrument reading; it should be 90%, ± 2%.
8. If necessary, readjust the span potentiometer for a 90% RH reading.
9. Repeat Steps 5 through 8 until both readings are correct; when that happens
the meter will meet its original accuracy specification. Close the bottles im-
mediately after use and wash your hands; the bottles can contain poisonous
solutions. Reassemble the housing.
Calibration Standards
Each unit is calibrated against standards traceable to the National Institute of
Standards and Technology.
Calibration certificates
In addition to the normal calibration procedure, each unit can be supplied with its
own traceable calibration certificate.
Calibration interval time
Under normal ambient conditions (0 to 50°C, 0 to 70% RH) and for an accuracy of
± 2% RH, we recommend an annual calibration. For an accuracy ±5% RH we
recommend calibration every five years. For environments with airborne chemi-
cals or for high humidity and high temperature conditions we recommend more
frequent calibration.
