  • Page 7: Description And Specifications

    Description and specifications Overview The Rosemount 226 sensor is a toroidal (inductive) conductivity sensor. These sensors work well for measuring in highly conductive liquids up to 2 S/cm (2,000,000 μS/cm). Unlike metal electrode based conductivity sensors, toroidal conductivity sensors, like the Rosemount 226, are resistant to fouling, coating, and chemical attack.

  • Page 17: Chapter 3 Calibration

    Calibration Sensor Calibration The nominal cell constant of the Rosemount 226 sensor is 1.2/cm. The error in cell constant is about ± 10%, so conductivity readings made using the nominal cell constant will have an error of at least ± 10%.
  • Page 18 Calibration Reference Manual August 2018 00809-0100-3226 4. If wall effects are present, be sure the vessel used for calibration has exactly the same dimensions as the process piping. 5. Also, ensure that the orientation of the sensor with respect to the piping is exactly the same in the process and calibration vessels.

    If this is not possible, adjust the conductivity so that it is at least 5000 μS/cm. 2. Orient the referee sensor so that air bubbles always have an easy escape path and cannot get trapped. Rosemount 226 Sensors...

Tap and hold the flow cell in different positions to allow bubbles to escape. 4. Turn off automatic temperature compensation in the transmitter. This eliminates error in the cell constant. 5.

    3. Keep temperature compensation with the transmitter turned on. 4. Confirm that the temperature measurements in both the process and referee instruments are accurate, ideally to within ±0.5 °C. 5. Wait until readings are stable before starting the calibration. Rosemount 226 Sensors...
