N O T I C E

Use of this sensor may lead to fissures of the coating, exposing the underlying substrate to the environment in

which the sensor is immersed. Therefore, this sensor has not been developed for, and is not meant for use in

applications where the liquid is expected to conform to certain purity or cleanliness parameters and in which

contamination could result in substantial damages. These applications typically include semiconductor

manufacturing applications and may include other applications in which the user must assess risk of

contamination and subsequent impact on product quality. The manufacturer advises against the use of the sensor

in these applications and assumes no responsibility for any claims or damages arising as a result of the sensor

being used in or in relation to these applications.

The 3700 series inductive conductivity sensors are analog sensors that are used with a controller for

data collection and operation. This document assumes sensor installation and use with an sc

controller (sc100, sc200 or sc1000). To use the sensor with other controllers, refer to the user

manual for the controller that is used and the wiring information in this document.

Adjust the T-factor for non-standard cable lengths

When the sensor cable is extended or shortened from the standard 6 m (20 ft), the resistance of the

cable changes. This change reduces the accuracy of temperature measurements. To correct for this

difference, calculate a new T-factor.

Note: This procedure applies only to sensors with a PT1000 temperature element. Sensors with a

PT100 temperature element are less accurate.

1. Measure the temperature of a solution with the sensor and with an independent, reliable

instrument such as a thermometer.

2. Record the difference between the temperature measured from the sensor and from the

independent source (actual).

For example, if the actual temperature is 50 °C and the sensor reading is 53 °C, the difference is

3 °C.

3. Multiply this difference by 3.85 to get an adjustment value.

Example: 3 x 3.85 = 11.55.

English

19

4. Calculate a new T-factor:

• Sensor temperature > actual—add the adjustment value to the T-factor on the sensor cable

• Sensor temperature < actual—subtract the adjustment value from the T-factor on the sensor

cable

5. Enter the new T-factor in the Configure, Temp Element menu.

Calibrate the sensor

W A R N I N G

Explosion hazard. Removal of a sensor from a pressurized vessel can be dangerous. Reduce the

process pressure to below 10 psi before removal. If this is not possible, use extreme caution. Refer to

the documentation supplied with the mounting hardware for more information.

W A R N I N G

Chemical exposure hazard. Obey laboratory safety procedures and wear all of the personal protective

equipment appropriate to the chemicals that are handled. Refer to the current safety data sheets

(MSDS/SDS) for safety protocols.

C A U T I O N

Chemical exposure hazard. Dispose of chemicals and wastes in accordance with local, regional and

national regulations.

About sensor calibration

The wet cal method should be used to calibrate the conductivity sensor:

• Wet cal—use air (Zero Cal) and a reference solution or process sample of known value to define a

calibration curve. A reference solution calibration is recommended for best accuracy. When the

process sample is used, the reference value must be determined with a secondary verification

instrument. Be sure to enter the T-factor in the Configure menu for accurate temperature

compensation.

During calibration, data is not sent to the datalog. Thus, the datalog can have areas where the data is

intermittent.

Zero calibration procedure

Use the zero calibration procedure to define the unique zero point of the conductivity sensor. The

zero point must be defined before the sensor is calibrated for the first time with a reference solution

or process sample.

1. Remove the sensor from the process. Wipe the sensor with a clean towel or use compressed air

to make sure the sensor is clean and dry.

2. Push the MENU key and select Sensor Setup, [Select Sensor], Calibrate.

3. Push ENTER to select Zero Cal.

4. If the passcode is enabled in the security menu for the controller, enter the passcode.

5. Select the option for the output signal during calibration:

Option Description

Active The instrument sends the current measured output value during the calibration procedure.

Hold The sensor output value is held at the current measured value during the calibration procedure.

Transfer A preset output value is sent during calibration. Refer to the controller user manual to change the

preset value.
