(2) To avoid measurement errors, fully immerse the sensor in the sample until the liquid level reaches the air vent (bubble outlet). Air bubbles on the electrode element may also cause measurement errors.
<3. Measurement Mode (MEAS)> Temperature Compensation There are two types of temperature compensation: automatic temperature compensation (ATC) and manual temperature compensation (MTC). Automatic temperature compensation (ATC) measures the temperature of the solution and automatically compensates for it by connecting the temperature sensor (temperature connector) built into the sensor to the meter.

The setting range is 0.010 to 20.00 cm The cell constant varies from sensor to sensor even if they are of the same type (standard cell constant is the same). So the unique cell constants of the sensor to be used must be set. Set the cell constant indicated in the model name and cell constant shown on the sensor cable.
<4. Setup Mode (SET)> 4.1.2 Unit (UNIT) Select the unit of conductivity. Select from S/cm (default) or S/m. (1) Press the SET key. (2) When the P1 COND screen appears, press the ENT key. (3) When the P1.1 CELL screen appears, press the up key once to go to the P1.2 UNIT screen and press the ENT key.
<4. Setup Mode (SET)> 4.1.4 Temperature compensation factor (T.CFF) Temperature characteristics of conductivity depend on solution. The temperature compensation factor can be set according to the solution to be measured. Set the temperature compensation factor. The setting range is 0.00 to 10.00 %°C. The default is 2.00 %°C.
Page 34
25°C is set to 1. To compare concentrations, conductivity at a certain temperature (reference temperature) is required. SC92 can measure the temperature of the solution with an embedded temperature sensor and automatically convert it to the reference temperature. How to obtain temperature compensation factor If the temperature compensation factor of the solution to be measured is unknown, set the temperature compensation factor to 0.00, measure the conductivity at two liquid temperatures in...
<4. Setup Mode (SET)> 4.1.5 Reference temperature (T.rEF) Set the reference temperature. The setting range is 15.0 to 30.0°C. The default is 25.0°C. SC92 has a reference temperature conversion function that allows conversion to a set reference temperature. (1) Press the SET key.

Mode State When the measured value meets the stability criteria, the will change from AS (Auto Stable) blinking to lit and the measured value will be fixed. If the value falls outside the stability criteria, the will blink again.
4-11 <4. Setup Mode (SET)> 4.3.2 Auto power-off time setup (A.Off) Set the time to automatically turn off the power (auto power off) when no key operation is performed for a certain period of time. The time can be set from 1 to 30 minutes. The initial value is 30 minutes. Setting “----”...
4-12 <4. Setup Mode (SET)> 4.3.3 Reset the meter (r.SET) Reset to factory default settings. The power is automatically turned off after the resetting. (1) Press the SET key. (2) When the P1 COND screen appears, press the up key twice to go to the P3 GEN screen and press the ENT key.
<5. Calibration Mode (CAL)> Calibration Mode (CAL) In the calibration mode, Auto Stable mode (AS) is activated. Even when Stability check mode of the measurement mode is set to “Auto Hold” (AH) or “Real Time” (RT), the calibration mode forces the unit into the Auto Stable mode (AS). NOTE Press the MEAS key during calibration (...
<5. Calibration Mode (CAL)> NOTE When calibrating multiple points, first calibrate with a solution of low conductivity and then with one of high conductivity. Calibration in the reverse order may result in incorrect calibration, because if the sensor is not cleaned enough, the residual high conductivity solution will dissolve into the low conductivity solution and change the conductivity of the low conductivity solution.
<5. Calibration Mode (CAL)> Manual calibration After immersing the conductivity sensor in the solution, press the CAL key. The calibration method (MAN) being set is displayed. blinks, and the stability check of the measured value begins. Wait until the value stabilizes: goes from blinking to lit.
<5. Calibration Mode (CAL)> 5.2 Temperature Calibration Temperature calibration can be performed in automatic temperature compensation (ATC) mode. After immersing the sensor to be calibrated in temperature-controlled water in a thermostatic bath, adjust the sensor’s temperature to match that of a reliable thermometer. Always perform the temperature calibration with the temperature connector connected.
<6. Data Mode (DATA)> Data Mode (DATA) In the data mode, you can check the data (measurement data and calibration data) stored in the internal memory.
