Before Calibration

Remove cover of Transmitter and ensure that electrode is correctly
connected as above. Connect Amp meter to the 4/20mA output of
Transmitter (Appendix 1).

Conductivity Transmitter Calibration

Prepare fresh Calibrating solutions.

1)

Hold electrode in air (electrode MUST be dry) and Amp meter should
read 4mA; if not, calibration is necessary;

2)

Locate “Zero adjustment” trimmer; Using a fine screwdriver,
slowly turn trimmer till Amp meter reads 4mA;

3)

For greater accuracy, adjust the slope with Standard calibrating
solutions;

4)

Rinse probe in de-ionised water and immerse in standard solution;

5)

In 1413

µµS solution, the output is 5.1304 mA;

6)

In 2764

µµS solution, the output is 6.2112 mA;

7)

In 12.88 mS solution, the output is 14.304 mA;

8)

Using a fine screwdriver, slowly turn trimmer, marked ‘FSMS’, till
Amp meter reads correct mA value with respective Standard
solutions.

9)

Remember to disconnect Amp meter and close cover.

NB: For other Standard values, expected current output is based on:

mA = {(16/20) x Conductivity value of Standard soln} + 4mA
