Temperature Compensation
The mg/L mode is automatically temperature-compensated to an accuracy of ±1% of DO
readings between 0 and 5°C, and to an accuracy of ±0.6% of readings between 5 and 45°C.
The % air saturation mode is automatically temperature-compensated to an accuracy of ±0.5% of
calibration values between 0 and 5°C, and to an accuracy of ±0.3% of values between 5 and
45°C.
