Operation Turbimax CUS51D the standard method as it produces robust calibration curves and good measurement results with minimum calibration effort. 1. Select the two calibration points at the limits of the expected measuring range. 2. Do not select any calibration points outside the specified measuring range for the application.
Page 33
Turbimax CUS51D Operation With a four- or five-point calibration, the calibration curve is plotted between the calibration points. Avoid this type of calibration if possible, as it does not significantly improve accuracy. Explanation on the type of calibration Single-point and two-point calibrations are based on the factory data record stored internally in the device.
Page 34
Operation Turbimax CUS51D Sample preparation of the calibration solutions: In the case of multipoint calibrations, the calibration takes place outside the process. For this, a sample is taken from the process and prepared accordingly. A0020482 Take a sample from the process (e.g.10 l (2.6 gal) bucket).
