6. Adjustment on site 19
6. Adjustment on site
One point adjustment by inputting one reference
value
Using one point adjustment, you can enter a reference
value for a working point (e.g. -40C tpd) specified by
you. In this way you will achieve a minimum target/
actual deviation from this working point.
A dew point mirror is ideal as a reference measuring
instrument.
The Adj menu in which the reference value is
entered is only available if one of the following units
is set: Ctp, Ftp, %rF, %Hr or %rh (See 5. Menu
guide, p. 16, Unit menu, Setting unit).
Reference value input
Optimum precision is achieved at reference value
-40 C tpd. In case low dewpoints (<-25 C tpd) are
relevant, it is suggested to avoid reference values
>-30 C tpd (else loss of precision).
1 Expose reference measuring instrument and
testo 6740 to identical, constant conditions and
await adjustment time.
2 Measure reference value and compare with
testo 6740 reading.
3 If there are deviations in the values, enter reference
value in Adj menu.
20 6. Adjustment on site
Two-point adjustment for testo 6743
available from versioin June 2007 on. For older
versions an update of the firmware is necessary
(please adress Testo service)
6. Adjustment on site 21
Installation
1 Screw instrument testo 6743 (G1/2process
connection) into the adjustment chamber ().
2 Connect 2-pressure adjustment device () to the
compressed air pipe with the compressed air fast
coupling (diameter 7.2).
The permitted operating pressure is 3-16 bar.
Adjustment
1 Read off process pressure / system pressure P1,
e. g. from a manometer, and note value.
The manometer should be installed close to the
measurement site.
Take the pressure relationship P1/P2 from the
calibration certificate (page 2) based on the
process pressure. Linear interpolation (calculation)
is possible between the two values.
2 Open menu 2PA (see chapter 5 Menu guide).
P1 and the relative humidity %rF at the pressure
level P1 are alternately displayed.
The measuring instrument testo 6743 requires
stable pressure values for the two-pressureadjustment.
3 Wait until the value is constant and then press the
SET button (see chapter 5 Menu guide).
P2 and the relative humidity %rF at the pressure
level P2 are alternately displayed. P2 stands for the
pressure in the adjustment chamber () when the
switchover cock is closed ().
4 Close valve (position switchover cock () across
the measurement chamber () and wait until the
relative humidity displayed has a constant value.
5 When the value is constant, confirm with the SET
button (see chapter 5 Menu guide).
22 6. Adjustment on site
6 Take the pressure relationship P1/P2 from the
calibration certificate (page 2) based on the
process pressure. Linear interpolation (calculation)
is possible between the two values..
7 Input the pressure ratio
into the operating
menu. Confirm input with the SET button.
8 Remove adjustment device () from the
compressed air pipe.
9 Unscrew testo 6743 from the adjustment chamber
() and re-install for continuous operation.
Limits of the adjustment chamber
In order to avoid false adjustments, the adjustment
described above is only accepted by testo 6743 if
