  • Page 20 Measurement Basic information about the temperature coefficient The temperature coefficient in conductivity measurement is an important subject that is frequently neglected. The conductivity of a solution changes with the temperature. As the temperature rises, the conductivity of the measurement solution increases also. In order to arrive at meaningful measured values, the display value is compensated to 25°C.

  • Page 47: Calibration Of Conductivity Measurement

    Calibration Calibration of conductivity measurement We recommend an examination of the calibration once a month. Reference temperature The usual reference temperature is 25 °C. For special applications other values can be used. Use this function only if you are aware of the consequences. By using wrong values you will get a wrong conductivity value.
  • Page 48 Calibration Temperature coefficient For dialysate, the temperature-coefficient of the solution to be measured is 2.070%. For special applications this factor can be changed. Use this function only if you are aware of the consequences. By using wrong values you will get wrong conductivity values. You reach this function by calling the menu point temp.-coeff.
  • Page 49 Calibration Measuring of the cell parameter Before this function can be used, the reference temperature must be adjusted. It is sufficient for the conductivity calibration to know the cell parameter. If this is not known, or has been changed after longer use by deposits on the electrode, this function can be used to define the cell parameter newly.
  • Page 50 Calibration Enter cell parameter It is sufficient to enter the cell parameter of the electrode if it is known. This is profitable for an exchange of the electrode. Choose the function input cellpar. Enter the cell parameter via the numeric keyboard and confirm it with >ENTER<.
  • Page 51: Calibration Of The Pressure Measurement

    Calibration Calibration of the pressure measurement We recommend an examination of the calibration once a year. Operate the function key pressure in the adjust-menu. The calibration of the pressure measurement works like described for the temperature calibration at up to six points. After the input of two points you have the choice whether to terminate the calibration (function stop input), or to enter further values (function another input).
  • Page 52 Calibration The calibration values must be entered only if the values on the display are stable. The sequence of the calibration in reference to the level of the values is insignificant. Please note that each value may be entered only once since the system does not accept the data otherwise.
  • Page 53: Calibration Of Ph-Measurement

    Calibration Calibration of pH-measurement Please read section Fundamental information about measurement Temperature calibration of the pH-measurement For the temperature calibration of the pH-measurement the device offers two possibilities. The solution temperature can be measured via the conductivity and temperature-electrode, or entered by hand. The chosen type of the calibration is check-marked in the menu point measure t-comp or enter t-comp.
  • Page 54: Ph-Calibration

    Calibration pH-calibration We recommend an examination of the calibration before each measurement. Before calibration the type of temperature calibration must be selected already. Prepare two buffer solutions. The two buffers should not differ more than two activation decades. Choose, for example, pH4 and pH6. For the measurement remove the protection hood carefully.
  • Page 55: Calibration Of Flow

    Calibration Calibration of flow You will get to this function by operating the menu point flow. Up to 15 different sensors will be governed automatically. For calibration the correct sensor must be applied. In case that no sensor should be connected, a fault notice will occur.
  • Page 56 This type of calibration is the safest way to get to an exact result. Here the amount that has flown through the sensor within 5...10 min will be measured, and this value will then be entered. The HDM99 uses the value to calculate the impulses/liter. If you change to the menu point enter impulse after this calibration, you will get the new calibration value there.
  • Page 57: Calibration Of The Voltage Measurement

    Calibration Calibration of the voltage measurement We recommend an examination of the calibration once a year. You can reach this function by calling the menu point voltage. For the calibration of the voltage measurement you need two values. The calibration values should be at 0 and approx. 40 V=. The sequence of the calibration in reference to the size of the values is insignificant.

    Cleaning Never clean the device with any fluids! In case of pollution you can wipe the surface of the HDM99 with a dry and clean cloth. For measurements in the lower conductivity range the cleaning of the conductivity / temperature measuring cell is recommended. Remove water- soluble substances by rinsing with de-ionized water, fats and oils with warm water and household dish washing detergent.
  • Page 60: Calibration Intervals

    Calibration intervals In the delivery state each device is newly adjusted. To assure a reliable function of the HDM99, the different measuring channels have to be calibrated at fixed intervals to examine their precision. This can be done by measuring known sizes, for instance, standard solutions, or proof voltages.
