Operation Multi 3400i 4.4.5 Why determine the cell constant? Determining the cell constant (Calibration in the control standard) Aging slightly changes the cell constant, e. g. by coatings. As a result, an inexact measured value is displayed. The original characteristics of the cell can often be restored by cleaning the cell. Calibration determines the current value of the cell constant and stores this value in the instrument. Thus, you should calibrate at regular intervals.

Lists Multi 3400i Glossary Adjusting To manipulate a measuring system so that the relevant value (e. g. the displayed value) differs as little as possible from the correct value or a value that is regarded as correct, or that the difference remains within the tolerance. Asymmetry Designation for the offset potential of a pH electrode.
Multi 3400i Lists Measuring system The measuring system comprises all the devices used for measuring, e. g. measuring instrument and probe. In addition, there is the cable and possibly an amplifier, terminal strip and armature. Molality Molality is the quantity (in Mol) of a dissolved substance in 1000 g solvent. MultiCal® WTW name stating that a measuring instrument provides several calibration procedures.
Lists Multi 3400i Salt content Sample Designation of the sample ready to be measured. Normally, a test sample is made by processing the original sample. The test sample and original sample are identical if the test sample was not processed. Setting the temperature compensation Name of a function that considers the temperature influence on the measurement and converts it accordingly. Depending on the measured parameter to be determined, the temperature compensation functions in different ways.
