4.2.1 General information
The TetraCon
®
700 IQ (SW) conductivity sensor is stable over the long
term. When being used for the authorized use of the sensor in water/
wastewater applications, it is immediately ready for use.
Note
Normally, the conductivity measuring cell does not age. Special
measuring mediums (e.g. strong acids and bases, organic solvents) or
temperatures that are too high may considerably reduce its lifetime or
lead to damage. No warranty claims can be made for mechanical
damage or any failure caused by these types of measuring mediums.
Adapting the cell
constant to the
installation location
In the case of special installation conditions, it may be necessary to
adapt the cell constant (due to the influence of the measuring
environment, e.g. of boundary fields).
Note
The cell constant is stored in the controller. It is automatically allocated
to the substitute sensor when the sensor is exchanged.
Cell constants with YSI
installation accessories
In chapter 7 T ECHNICAL DATA of this operating manual you will find the
correct values to set for some products of the YSI accessory program
that require a correction of the cell constant (if it is possible to give fixed
values at all). If necessary, special installation recommendations for the
TetraCon
®
700 IQ (SW) can be found in the accessory operating
manual. In case of doubt it is necessary to determine the cell constant
according to section 4.2.2.
Note
The setting of the cell constant is made in the setting menu of the
sensor according to section 3.4.
