6. TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
6.1 Results correction to 18°C
The results achieved are correlated to the method of reference, considering the room -
temperature. SRT 10/II, measures constantly the inner temperature; further reconverts the
values in according to the Manley table (1) shown below, at the temperature of 18 degrees.
Therefore, this instrument guarantees a better reproducibility instead of instruments which
perform results without temperature compensation.

SRT 10/II converts the results to 18 degrees according to the table if room temperature is in
the range 15 – 32°C. For lower or higher room temperatures the instrument convert
temperature in this way: 15°C for lower and 32°C for higher temperature.
6.2 Result
Each laboratory should validate and evaluate its ESR reference values.
