  • Page 56: Measurement Process

    Note: It is recommended to perform the package analysis with packages at room temperature. Contact your Hach Ultra agent for measuring cold packages. When a series of cold packages follows a series of warm packages (or the opposite), the sensors will measure an evolution in temperature, until thermal equalization is reached.
