Description
Task
Measurement systems and devices need to be inspected in regular intervals. The depth of these checks depends on the operating conditions as well as on the metrological features of the measurement system itself. For the field test of the humidity measurement system HYGROPHIL F 5672, BARTEC recommends the Field-test Dewpoint, by means of which function and stability can easily be verified. If it should turn out that for example due to an irremovable film on the sensor, the measured value has to be corrected, Field-test Dewpoint provides for the required correction factor. This method, which is particularly easy and practicable for measurements of residual humidity, is based on long years of experiences with the application of HYGROPHIL F 5672, which prove that a one-point-correction is absolutely sufficient in many applications (s. chapter 4).
1.2
Operating principle
The Field-test Dewpoint works according to the principle of the saturated saline solution. Excessive salt makes sure that there is a constant relative humidity in the closed measuring chamber. For Field-test Dewpoint this amounts to 10 %, which stay constant in a large temperature range. By knowing the relative humidity and precisely measuring the temperature, you can calculate further humidity values. In the field test of HYGROPHIL F 5672, the dewpoint (DT) is calculated in C and, if required, is used for the correction in the device. This quite simple method offers a possibility to carry out a field test of the sensor technology with a satisfactory precision, provided that some conditions are observed: The constructive design of the measuring device has to be adapted to the on-site requirements. A stable and homogeneous temperature has to be guaranteed. Temperature measurement in the measuring chamber has to be as precise as possible and should also be possible in the Ex range.

Sources of errors
The easy handling of Field-test Dewpoint must not tempt the user to ignore two potential sources of errors: 1. In the measuring chamber, the temperature of the sensor and the temperature of the humid air have to be as identical as possible. A temperature difference of 1 Kelvin can result in an error of up to 3 % of relative humidity. For an ambient temperature of 20 C, this results in the following error limits: RH 10 % = > -12,5 C DT = nominal value RH (10-3) % = > -16,9 C DT RH (10+3) % = > -9,2 C DT 2. The second source of error is an unstable temperature. This is caused if - the read-out takes place too early, or - due to unfavourable placement, e.g. at a draughty place, there is a permanent fluctuation of the temperature in the measuring chamber, or - read-out and adjustment at the device do not take place simultaneously or almost simultaneously. An error of 1 C TT leads to the following results: TT 20 C = > -12,5 C DT = nominal value TT (20+1) C = > -11,8 C DT TT (20-1) C = > -13,3 C DT

Start-up 3
Start-up
Before starting the first measurement the measuring chamber has to be filled up with the humidity standard. To this the measuring chamber is held with the left hand and unscrewed clockwise with the right hand.
Ampoules
Pads Put a pad in the round notch at the bottom of the measuring chamber (which consists of four single sheets). Break off the head of an ampoule under slight pressure. Use protective gloves for it absolutely and keep the ampoule head faceup.

Subsequently screw the bottom and top of the measuring chamber together again by hand.

Requirements
1. The most important requirement for an accurate measurement: In the moment of the measurement, the temperature at the tip of the humidity probe and the gas temperature in the measuring chamber have to be identical. 2. The read-out of the temperature in the measuring chamber and the entry of this temperature into the evaluation unit HYGROPHIL F 5672 have to take place almost simultaneously; the temperature in the measuring chamber must not change within this time.

4 Mount the probe in the measuring chamber. 4.1 By means of an open-end wrench (13 mm), loosen the cover of the measuring chamber and take it off. 4.2 Slowly insert the humidity probe as far as it will go and pull it out again for 2-3 mm so that it does not bump against the bottom of the measuring chamber. 4.3 Slightly tighten the fastening nut. This should be done quickly to make sure that as little humidity as possible gets into the measuring chamber from outside, as this would prolong the waiting time. 4.4 Establish the connection between Pt100 and the precision thermometer.
Place the measuring chamber in the protective tube. 5.1 Take off the lid of the protective tube. 5.2 Mount the screw feet and put the protective tube onto the standing ring. 5.3 Put the measuring chamber onto the protective tube. 5.4 Lead the connection cable of the Pt 100 through the cut-out in the protective tube. Now the measuring chamber is in a container with balanced temperature conditions.

Now the device is ready for the manual input of temperature and pressure. Make sure that temperature and pressure appear in the lower line of the display. If in this line the wave length is displayed instead of temperature and pressure, press [F2] to switch over to this display. The values for temperature and pressure which are then displayed are the stored fixed values. Note both values, as you will have to enter them again after the test has been completed.

Call up programming mode
Measurement correction
Measurement correction is carried out by changing the offset settings in the programming mode. To call up the programming mode, press the [PROG] key at the 5672 evaluation unit. After calling up the programming mode you will first be asked for the password. To make any changes to the program you must enter the correct password. The password is: 5672. Press [ENTER] twice, so the menu EQUIP.-CONF.? is displayed. Press [1] [ENTER], to open the menu EQUIP.-CONF..
Password
Now press [ENTER] several times until the menu OFFS-CAL? appears. [1] [ENTER] Call up offset setting function
After the offset setting function is called up, the date of the last offset change is indicated. Enter the current date in the form 20,06,2004 and confirm it by pressing [ENTER]. The current values for temperature and pressure will be indicated. Confirm them with [ENTER] . The current measured value is presented under the readout "SETPOINT".
Enter the value for DT that you have found in the table and confirm it with [ENTER].
The offset setting is indicated in the measurement variable's unit of measurement. Confirm it with [ENTER].
The offset setting is indicated in the wave length shift. Confirm it with [ENTER].
The evaluation unit exits the programming mode and switches to display mode, returning to the operating mode last set there.
