methods, calibration apparatus and/or quality of reference standards used to perform the calibration.
menu Resistivity will be considered and not the temperature compensation selected thru the
calibration procedure (see also section 8.2.3.1 “Conductivity Temperature Compensation”;
PATH: Menu/Configure/Measurement/Resistivity).
Enter Conductivity sensor calibration mode as described in section 7.1 “Enter Calibration Mode”.
The next screen will ask to select the type of temperature compensation mode desired during the
calibration process.
“Glycol.5”, “Glycol1”, “Cation”, “Alcohol” and “Ammonia”.
None does not make any compensation of the measured conductivity value. The uncompensated value will be displayed and proceeded.
Standard compensation includes compensation for non-linear high purity effects as well as
conventional neutral salt impurities and conforms to ASTM standards D1125 and D5391.
Light 84 compensation matches the high purity water research results of Dr. T.S. Light published in 1984. Use only if your institution has standardized on that work.
Std 75 °C compensation is the Standard compensation algorithm referenced to 75°C. This
compensation may be preferred when measuring Ultrapure Water at an elevated temperature
(Resistivity of ultrapure water compensated to 75 °C is 2.4818 Mohm-cm.)
Linear 25 °C compensation adjusts the reading by a coefficient or factor expressed as %/°C
(deviation from 25 °C). Use only if the solution has a well-characterized linear temperature coefficient. The factory default setting is 2.0% /°C.
Linear 20 °C compensation adjusts the reading by a coefficient or factor expressed as %/°C
(deviation from 20 °C). Use only if the solution has a well-characterized linear temperature coefficient. The factory default setting is 2.0% /°C.
Glycol.5 compensation matches the temperature characteristics of 50% ethylene glycol in water. Compensated measurements using this solution may go above 18 Mohm-cm.
Glycol1 compensation matches the temperature characteristics of 100% ethylene glycol. Compensated measurements may go well above 18Mohm-cm.
Cation compensation is used in power industry applications measuring the sample after a cation exchanger. It takes into account the effects of temperature on the dissociation of pure water
in the presence of acids.
Alcohol compensation provides for the temperature characteristics of a 75% solution of isopropyl alcohol in pure water. Compensated measurements using this solution may go above
18Mohm-cm.
Ammonia compensation is used in power industry applications for specific conductivity measured on samples using ammonia and/or ETA (ethanolamine) water treatment. It takes into account the effects of temperature on the dissociation of pure water in the presence of these bases.

7.3.1 One-Point Calibration for Amperometric Oxygen
Sensors
Enter Oxygen calibration mode as described in section 7.1 “Enter Calibration Mode”.
A one-point calibration of oxygen sensors is always either a one-point slope (i.e. with air) or a
zero (offset) calibration. A one-point slope calibration is done in air and a one-point offset calibration is done at 0 ppb oxygen. A one-point zero dissolved oxygen calibration is available but
not normally recommended since zero oxygen is very hard to achieve. A zero-point calibration is
only recommended if high accuracy at low oxygen level (below 5% air) is needed.

NOTE: With ISM sensors: If a one-point calibration is executed, the transmitter sends the polar-
h
ization voltage, valid for the calibration, to the sensor. If the polarization voltage for the measuring mode and calibration mode is different, the transmitter will wait 120 seconds before starting
the calibration. In this case the transmitter will also go after the calibration for 120 seconds to
the HOLD Mode, before returning to the measuring mode again. (see also section8.2.3.4 “Parameters for Oxygen Measurement Based on Amperometric Sensors”).

on the sensor model connected to the transmitter, also as a one-point calibration.
7.4.1 One-Point Calibration for Optical Oxygen Sensors
Typically a one-point calibration is done in air. Nevertheless other calibration gases and solutions are possible.
The calibration of an optical sensor is always a calibration of the phase of the fluorescence signal towards the internal reference. During a one-point calibration the phase in this point is measured and extrapolated over the measuring range.

(P0) air.
Select ADJUST, CALIBRATE or ABORT to finish calibration. See „7.1.2 Finish Calibration“.
7.4.2 Two-Point Sensor Calibration
The calibration of an optical sensor is always a calibration of the phase of the fluorescence signal towards the internal reference. A two-point calibration is a combination of first a calibration
in air (100%) where a new phase P100 is measured and then a calibration in nitrogen (0%)
where a new phase P0 is measured. This calibration routine gives the most accurate calibration
curve over the whole measuring range.

8.2.3.1 Conductivity Temperature Compensation
If during the channel setup (see section 8.2.1 “Channel Setup”) the parameter conductivity has
been chosen or an four-electrode conductivity sensor based on ISM technology is connected to
the transmitter, the temperature compensation mode can be selected. Temperature compensation
should be matched to the characteristics of the application. The transmitter considers this value
for the temperature compensation by calculating and displaying the result for the measured
conductivity.
NOTE: For calibration purposes the temperature compensation as defined at the menu “Cal/Com-
h
pensation” for the buffers resp. samples will be considered (see also section 7.2 “Conductivity
Calibration for Two- or Four-Electrode Sensors” resp.)
For doing this adjustment the menu “Resistivity”, that will be displayed, has to be chosen (see
section 8.2.3 “Parameter Related Settings”).
The first two measurement lines are displayed on the screen. This section described the procedure for the first measurement line. By using the key c the second line will be chosen. To select
the 3rd and 4th line press [ENTER]. The procedure itself works at every measurement line in the
same way.
Choices are “None”, ”Standard”, “Light 84”, “Std 75 °C”, ”Lin 25°C”, ”Lin 20°C”,
“Glycol.5”, “Glycol1”, “Cation”, “Alcohol” and “Ammonia”.
Standard compensation includes compensation for non-linear high purity effects as well as
conventional neutral salt impurities and conforms to ASTM standards D1125 and D5391.
None does not make any compensation of the measured conductivity value. The uncompensated value will be displayed and proceeded.
Light 84 compensation matches the high purity water research results of Dr. T.S. Light published in 1984. Use only if your institution has standardized on that work.
Std 75 °C compensation is the Standard compensation algorithm referenced to 75°C. This
compensation may be preferred when measuring Ultrapure Water at an elevated temperature
(Resistivity of ultrapure water compensated to 75 °C is 2.4818 Mohm-cm.)
Glycol.5 compensation matches the temperature characteristics of 50% ethylene glycol in water. Compensated measurements using this solution may go above 18 Mohm-cm.
Glycol1 compensation matches the temperature characteristics of 100% ethylene glycol. Compensated measurements may go well above 18Mohm-cm.
Cation compensation is used in power industry applications measuring the sample after a cation exchanger. It takes into account the effects of temperature on the dissociation of pure water
in the presence of acids.
Alcohol compensation provides for the temperature characteristics of a 75% solution of isopropyl alcohol in pure water. Compensated measurements using this solution may go above
18Mohm-cm.
Ammonia compensation is used in power industry applications for specific conductivity measured on samples using ammonia and/or ETA (ethanolamine) water treatment. It takes into account the effects of temperature on the dissociation of pure water in the presence of these bases.
Linear 25 °C compensation adjusts the reading by a coefficient or factor expressed as %/°C
(deviation from 25 °C). Use only if the solution has a well-characterized linear temperature
coefficient.
The factory default setting is 2.0% /°C.
Linear 20 °C compensation adjusts the reading by a coefficient or factor expressed as %/°C
(deviation from 20 °C). Use only if the solution has a well-characterized linear temperature
coefficient.
The factory default setting is 2.0% /°C.
If compensation mode ”Lin 25 °C” or ”Lin 20 °C” has been chosen, the factor for the adjustment
of the reading can be modified after pressing [ENTER] (If working at measurement line 1 or 2

Lifetime indicator: The dynamic lifetime indication allows an estimation, when the pH electrode
or the inner body of an amperometric oxygen sensors is at the end of his lifetime, based on the
actual stress he is exposed to. The sensor permanently takes the averaged stress of the past
days into consideration and is able to increase / decrease the lifetime accordingly.
Lifetime Indicator YES / NO
Alarm YES / NO
The following parameters affect the lifetime indicator:
Dynamic parameters: Static parameters:
– Temperature – Calibration history
– pH or oxygen value – Zero and Slope
– Glass impedance (only pH) – CIP / SIP / Autoclaving cycles
– Reference impedance (only pH)
The sensor keeps the information stored in the built in electronics and can be retrieved via a
transmitter or the iSense asset management suite.
The alarm will be reset if the Lifetime Indicator is not 0 days anymore (e.g. after connecting a
new sensor or changing on the measurement conditions).
For amperometric oxygen sensors, the lifetime indicator is related to the inner-body of the sensor. After exchanging the inner-body, reset the lifetime indicator as described in section 8.4.5
“Reset ISM Counter / Timer”.
If the Lifetime Indicator is turned on, in the measuring mode the value will be automatically
shown in the display on line 3.

CIP characteristics: CIP Cycles will be automatically recognized by the sensor. Since CIP cycles
will vary in intensity (duration and temperature) for each application the algorithm of the counter
recognizes an increase of the measurement temperature above a adjustable limit (parameter
Temp in °C). If the temperature does not decrease below the defined limit within the next 5 minutes after the temperature was reached, the counter in question will be incremented by one and
also locked for the next two hours. In the case the CIP would last longer than two hours the

IEC 61158, IEC 61784, EN 50170/DIN 19245 and EN 50020 (FISCO model).
With PROFIBUS PA, all the instrument parameters are categorized according to their functional
properties and task and are generally assigned to three different blocks.
A PROFIBUS PA instrument has the following block types:
A Resource Block (device block)
This block contains all the device-specific features of the device.
One Analayser transducer block (sensor block)
The “Sensor Block ” contains the measuring principles and the sensor-specific parameters.
One or more function blocks
Function blocks contain the automation functions of the instrument. There are different function
blocks such as the Analog Input Block or Discrete Input Block. Each of these function blocks is
used to execute different application functions.
The function blocks can be connected by means of an PROFIBUS configuration program, depending on the automation task.
M400 PA contains the following blocks:
– 1 Resource Block (device block)
– 1 Analyser Transducer Block (sensor block)
– 9 Function Blocks: 4 Analog Input Blocks (AI), 1 Analog Output Block (AO),
