5.3 Setting calibration curves

Output characteristics of detector units depend upon measuring objects. It may also change according to process conditions or constituent measuring conditions of samples. Accordingly, for accurate measurements, it is required to perform beforehand sample tests of each object and obtain, for moisture measurements, a relationship (This is called as a calibration curve.) between moisture contents (%H2O) obtained by a drying method or other measuring methods and absorbance “x” measured by a detector unit] or, for thickness measurements, a relationship (This is called as a calibration curve.) between thickness (µm) obtained by a micrometer or other measuring methods and absorbance “x” measured by a detector unit].

Note that settable coefficients differ depending on number of wavelengths being used. These coefficients are provided for the quadratic expression correction against a measured value “y”. Assuming that a measured value after the correction be “Y”, we obtain “Y = b2y2+b1y + bo”. These specify measured values at a low limit output and a high limit output on the analog output scaling. The output is scaled to 4mA at the low limit measured value and 20mA at the high limit measured value. A low limit alarm is activated when a measured value is lower than a low limit alarm setpoint. A high limit alarm is activated when a measured value is higher than a high limit alarm setpoint.

5.3.3 Correcting calibration curves

If an actual constituent value (moisture content or thickness) does not correspond with a constituent
value (moisture content or thickness) on a calibration curve being preset due to the difference of one-line and off-line measurements, or other causes, correct it with correction coefficients b0, b1 and b2. These coefficients are provided for the quadratic expression correction against a measured value “y”. Assuming that a measured value after correction be “Y”, we obtain, Y = b2y2 + b1y + bo Usually, a shift correction is done with b0 only. (b1 = 1, b2 = 0)

6. Creating calibration curves

Output characteristics of detector units depend upon measuring objects. It may also change according to process conditions or constituent measuring conditions of samples. Accordingly, for accurate measurements, it is required to perform beforehand sample tests of each object and obtain, for moisture measurements, a relationship (This is called as a calibration curve.) between moisture contents (%H2O) obtained by a drying method or other measuring methods and absorbance “x” measured by a detector unit] or, for thickness measurements, a relationship (This is called as a calibration curve.) between thickness (µm) obtained by a micrometer or other measuring methods and absorbance “x” measured by a detector unit].

7. Inspection and maintenance

7.3 Measures against troubles not included with self-diagnosis

If a trouble occurred, take remedial measures referring to the corresponding items of this manual after checking the following points. For the troubles of a detector unit, refer to the separate instruction
manual for [Infrared multiple-constituents analyzer detector unit IRMA].

7.3.1 Measured value remains unchanged.

(1) Is HOLD set to ON? (2) Is PRESET set to ON? (3) Are the calibration curve data correct? (4) Turn off the power once and then turn on it. (5) By using the output checker plate, check if the data displayed in the absorbance display mode
change?
(6) When the data remains unchanged, initialize the RAM. If this phenomenon is not still recovered,
return this unit to CHINO.

7.3.2 Measured value fluctuates.

(1) Is the measuring surface flat? (2) Is the measuring position correct? Make sure that a detector unit does not measure such bottom
face as a conveyor belt, etc. (3) Make sure that any disturbance light is not irradiated onto a measuring surface. (4) Is the smoothing time proper? Certain smoothing time is necessary in stable measurements. (5) Make sure that any noise source does not exist around a detector unit or connection cables.
(6) By using the output checker plate change, check if the data displayed in the absorbance display
mode fluctuate? (7) When the data fluctuates, initialize the RAM. If this phenomenon is not still recovered, return
this unit to CHINO.

7.3.3 Measured value is higher or lower than an actual value.

(1) Is the calibration curve number correct? (2) Are the calibration curve data correct? (3) Is HOLD or PRESET set to ON? (4) Is the measuring position by a detector unit correct?
(5) Is a cover glass surface face of a detector unit clean?
